Why play it

Conversation is a dangerous game. Manipulate a fractured band of renegade divers to reach the depths of this short narrative puzzle. Uncover alliances and expose betrayals — before something horrific from the dark abyss silences you all. Don’t let the conversation get too deep.

Story and worldbuilding

Pick your mission, and release your submersible SubVee into an unrelenting sea. Will you side with the Surfacers, who keep the dangers of the depths at bay from their overworld city? Or will you align yourself with a diverse cast of misfits from an underwater base, hidden in the deepest fathoms of the dark? Your SubVee is a dilemma to the divers who find you. Follow hints from the surface to offer them the right handles at the right time. You need their agreement to move forward, but it won't come easily. Navigate a dark maze of emotional dynamics to find leverage to guide them toward consensus.

7.5/10

Sub-Verge speaks to a precise audience: players who enjoy interactive storytelling, moral dilemmas, and narratives unafraid of dark outcomes. It demands patience, attention to detail, and a willingness to move forward through words rather than constant action. For others, it might feel more like an illustrated tale than a “traditional” game. But for those drawn to experiences blending psychology, science fiction, and underwater tension, Sub-Verge offers a short yet intense dive — with a final sequence that will hold your breath for you. And not just because of the oxygen. Recommended for anyone ready to immerse themselves in a tense, atmospheric tale where survival depends on the trust you earn.

6/10

The most enjoyable part of the story was revealing the relationships between the seven characters present. Each one had their motives and feelings towards my character, influencing gameplay. Again though, trying to pull the story out of these characters often felt like a chore. Oftentimes the dialogue would repeat itself, leading me to quickly skip through to the next part.
