About the Game
Darkwater is a cooperative extraction horror game for 1-4 players. Take command of your own custom submarine and survive the icy depths of an alien moon.
Play solo or enlist your own submariner crew. Up to 4 players can team up and survive an onslaught of deep-sea threats. Face down enemy submarines in naval warfare and dock your vessel to abandoned outposts in order to scavenge for supplies.
A devastating disease has struck an alien planet. The government has frozen the surface of the ocean in response. You and your crew are trapped below the ice.
Source fuel and travel from outpost to outpost in a desperate bid for survival
Uncover snippets of information relating to a greater truth
Plan and strategize every step of the way as you fight against the relentless adversity of a desperate world
Resources are scarce. Discover and explore dilapidated underwater facilities on foot and strip them for all they’re worth. Be prepared to deal with what lurks below.
Face down a variety of unpredictable enemies including infected divers, deep-sea angler fish and alien crabs.
Even the odds using a wide range of weaponry including sledgehammers, blow torches, pistols and shotguns.
Make sure you and your team have enough room to carry back the fuel canisters critical to your survival - teamwork is key to ensuring you live to see another day.
Take direct control of onboard systems for piloting, weapons and sonar. Upgrade your submarine. Expand your deck, invest in different cabins, negotiate with rival vessels, but be ready for war.
Utilize a variety of powerful torpedoes, harpoons, decoy mines and depth charges to gain the upper hand in sub-to-sub combat
Board enemy vessels using a manned torpedo to deliver the ultimate in-person surprise
Invest in unique rooms for your submarine that help with hacking, stealth and other strategic options

User Reviews
I don't really write reviews for games. Let alone for games I only play 30 minutes of. But holy fecking crap. This game is a blast. I got in a lobby, spent 10 minutes talking to some dude, we started up, tried to the controls, docked with an outpost. And then got demonized by some underwater abyss horror. We all died. 10/10
This game is not for the weak!! You will be faced with difficult obstacles such as managing leakage, engine failure, and team planning. 🥹 So much fun with friends! I loved hearing them panic as we kept our submarine together from attacks, but the deadliest of all were the flying clams 🧟!!! P.S. Never lose your wrench
ermmmmm this water is kinda dark
we need to go deeper but first person
Normally do not review games, but this game will be an exception, game is pretty fun with friends, quite a few bugs as expected for a game in its earlier stages and one dev, the dev seems like a nice person as they have offered to troubleshoot with players and go through files, with that all being said I give this game a big thumbs up and I believe with polishing and the right audience It can become something great
Instant refund, voice chat breaks instantly, the game runs like crap, you run around with a sickening jitter on screen. It's a decent concept but it should've been worked on WAY more than it has. Hell no, this game should be $2-5 in its current state. Overpriced garbage.
a good game for the price for. got bugs in it but the developer is fixing as they go. it dose have a major difficulty spike and most of the time you will die before you get there but mostly on me. this game i can feel it, it's going to be great. but do be aware the community is small so you might not be able to fine or join games for the host wanted it to be private and they just don't even press it to make it private or you are waiting for a game for awhile besides that it a fun game to play.
This game is great with friends!! I tend to get bored of games fast but for this one I look forward playing this game more!
