Submerged is a short - 4ish hour - game, with a beautiful sound track, and nearly wordless story. Your character seems to be (as there isn't any time limit within the game) racing against the clock, to save her younger brother who is badly injured. Miku, has to scale buildings, searching for supplies to aid her in caring for her brother, with secrets along the way that hint toward what has happened, to the world around you. The game involves no combat, but lots of climbing. With beautiful scenery, unique creatures - as I am not entirely sure if those are still the standard animals I thought they might be - and a sound track that both soothes and left me curious. If you enjoy games that leave most of the story (not all) to your interpretation, mixed with sailing around in a fishing boat and climbing decaying buildings, I definitely recommend Submerged for you.

About This Game
Submerged is a third-person combat-free game in which you explore a mysterious flooded city and discover the beauty of desolation in vast outdoor environments. You take on the role of Miku, a young girl who has brought her wounded brother to the city in their small fishing boat.
Navigate the flooded city streets by boat, scale the drowned buildings, and use your telescope to scour the city for the supplies needed to save your dying sibling. As you explore the city at your own pace, you encounter the habitat that flourishes in this colorful place and discover hidden objects that piece together the story of a broken world and a broken family.
Game Features
- Vast outdoor environments with a rich, colorful and vibrant habitat present the player with a beautiful place to linger during the day or night, and encounter the mysterious remnants that watch you from the rooftops.
- A serene and relaxing game experience; take your time to enjoy the sunrise and beautiful vistas, listen to the sound of the ocean, or observe the playfulness of the creatures that inhabit this place. There is only one pace in this game and that’s your own.
- Discover the hidden objects that piece together the story of redemption, sacrifice and determination, and learn more about how the city came to be this way.
- Cruise through the city streets in your small powered fishing boat, using your telescope to identify which of the various buildings contain supplies and mark them on your map.
- Discover the best path to the objects you spotted from afar. Dock your boat at tall buildings and landmarks and climb the vines, ladders, ledges and pipes as increasingly difficult navigation puzzles.
- Developed by an independent studio based in Australia, consisting of AAA veterans who have previously worked on the BioShock series, with music from BAFTA award winning composer Jeff van Dyck.

A beautiful, relaxing game, it's kind of a walking simulator in as much as it has you exploring the world to learn its secrets, but there is no combat. Lovely art style and soundtrack.
