Steer clear of this one unless you want to pay real money for game content which is already boring, dated and not a fun experience in any way. Cons: - in-game purchases gates content despite already paying $13 for the game. - Low budget dated graphics. - 30 second unskippable warning screen every time during launch. - "Early" access to a game that's been worked on since 2010 and is a chore to experience. - Extremely long loading times accompanied by obnoxious music, even on an SSD. - Bare bones options. A resolution and Quality setting. Nothing else. - Extremely unrealistic underwater movement breaks any possibility of immersion. - Only ONE map is included in the game price. PROS: - Steam's refund policy An early warning sign of the quality of this game is on the Early Access description section of the store page.

About This Game
- All of the locations, wildlife, gear, and science are real and reflect the serenity, beauty, and thrill of diving in the real world.
- As players find animals and artifacts or complete other tasks in the water, they unlock Knowledge Rewards that tell more about the wildlife, local history, local culture, and environmental issues.
- We are divers ourselves and we want to help people learn about what lives in the ocean and how/why they should protect it.
- We go to great lengths to ensure the integrity of the experience, working with scientists and divemasters who are experts in each region to make sure the dive sites are as real as we can make them.
Partners
- We’re excited to work with the legendary Dr. Sylvia Earle (National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, Time Magazine Hero for the Planet, founder of Mission Blue, a pioneer in oceanographic research starting back in the 1950s). Sylvia and her crew help us ensure the accuracy of the environmental information we present.
- We also work with the Diving Equipment & Marketing Association (DEMA) and over 20 dive equipment manufacturers to make sure the gear looks and behaves as it does IRL.

Nothing infinite about it. Clunky, unintuivative controls make the game fursturating to play and difficult to enjoy. There are currently only two dive spots, and one of them is locked behind a pay wall, in addition to all the other micro transactions for things like diffrent types of scuba gear. There are a number of diver avatars to choose from, I just hope your a woman though, because there are no male avatars as far as i can tell. I'm a PADI certified rescue diver so I can definatly appreciate what they were going for, but this game needs much more polish and base content before it is actually released. If your looking for a decent scuba game on Steam, i'd recomend World of Diving. It's a perpetually half finished abandonware title, but it still has more to offer than Infinite Scuba.
So far, I'm really enjoying this game. I've always wanted to SCUBA dive, but I've not been able to. This game is realistic enough to give me a small taste of what it might be like. It simulates important effects of depth such as nitrogen narcosis and the need for a safety stop after a deep dive. So far, the game includes two maps: Chuuk Lagoon and Belize. (The Belize map is 500 clams, but you start with that much at the beginning.) Chuuk Lagoon includes the wreck of the Gosei Maru, a Japanese ship that sank there in World War Two. Belize includes the Mesoamerican Reef. The player is given a list of "Things to Do" at each site, such as swimming to special areas, finding underwater caches, spotting different kinds of wildlife, finding artifacts, and, at Belize, cleaning up trash. I thought the activities were interesting, though some of the collections are very hard to complete. The swimming feels natural, though it took me some time to get used to using the camera independently of the...
First off this game on steam IS NOT the same game they've got out on their website. The steam version is behind in many ways. Right now on steam the games not good, and really needs to be updated. You can buy clams for things but the game won't take the money from your steam wallet or add any clams so there's not really much to do. So either wait for it to be fully out or maybe buy from their site and hope the games in better shape there. All this said I'll keep checking back as the game get's updated and change my review as needed. I really hope this game becomes something great. Update it's been 2 years and no change of any kind. https://www.infinitescuba.com/news is the site for the game and they have posted no form of updates about the game. At this point I fully believe this is abandoned and DON"T RECOMMEND this "game" to anyone.
Great SCUBA simulation game. It's pretty realistic for a early access game. It's worth the $12.99 price tag. Real life destinations , and with sponsers such as SCUBAPRO and Henderson you can't go wrong. They also donate a portion to Mission Blue.
if you are a learning diver and your a sim enthousiast then you will like this. it is not GTA5. if you buy the game then you get 500 clams. you can buy the second underwater site with new animals and plants to discover and learn. dont spend it on clothes or gear. just use the 500 to unlock the extra site belize. the water drags you and theres some sort of simulation. space and left control is to accent and decent and you can swim. it takes some time to discover the game and how to enjoy it. you yourselve have to mimic what you learned in padi or nelos or any divingclub or organisation. you gat achievments for what you do and do right and fault :) i full hardcore mode coulde be imlplented with inflating the jacket and deflating. space up and ctrl down is somwhat it now. as you decent with swiming or decent then the air gets smaller in the vest and you start to decent faster. this would be mimicable with somekind of a formula of depth and pressure and boyancy. i havent tried ...
i buy and play this game after watching my favorite anime, Grand Blue
Great that you guys are making a scuba game, it looks nice. First feeling is that the game would be more fun if the controls were more similar to how you can dive. For example being able to swim to the right/left (straffing in games) or also just being able to stand up but still swim down by releasing air from your vest. For me also an Xbox controller did not work and the mouse controls were not so pleasant.
