Song of the Deep

Fun game, submarine metrovania-ish - Rather mellow, but does have a few tough spots.
The dashing against the current in some spots, is a bit annoying.
Aquaria is a similar style game.

One of my favorite games that I've ever played. It's beautifully drawn, has fun exploration and combat, excellent music, and has a great story. Most of the negative reviews are from people with thousands of hours in fps games, who's brains are so fried from constant stimulation they can't enjoy a story focused game. Another common complaint is that the controls suck, but that's just because the game takes place underwater. The controls look and feel great, and are consistent, if you have problems with them, its genuinely a skill issue. I played it first on my xbox one when it first came out, and it still holds up, almost nine years later.

This game has a very charming and feel good story. I will say its not the best in terms of gameplay but I would say that I did have fun. There were parts that are kinda boring but it was quickly overturned with another story piece tying the game together very nicely. This game has a special place in my heart.

A very engaging and thrilling underwater adventure full of suspense and surprises. Challenging yet fun. i thoroughly enjoyed playing this game.

1. texture's are buggy at times, combat is little bit repetitive and annoying, and the puzzles are harsh brutal. so 100%(ing) isn't exactly easy. the story was simple, but nice and the art is really beautiful.
2. if your going to look up solutions; do so, but don't use you-tube for collections(aka: clams), because theirs no video that can show u.
3. (Spoilers): the first boss was really tricky to figure out, then the other 2 bosses(including the final boss) aren't even really bosses just battle arenas.

Good game with high production value. Definitely one kids can get into.

Exactly how I remembered this game from well over a decade ago playing it on xbox360, still really enjoy this title.
