This is the first real 3D dive simulation for mobile devices! Take a virtual dive to the famous Zenobia wreck. Zenobia is located in Larnaka, Cyprus, and is considered as one of the top 10 wrecks worldwide. Explore it in a stunning underwater environment with captivating music and undeniably impressive graphics. It can proudly said that is one of the best diving simulators.
EXPLORE THE SEA WORLD
As you are diving around the impressive wreck, fish are constantly surrounding you! Each fish you see around you can be tapped and a real info about that species will appear on the screen. Also in the info section of the app, in the 3d book, you can see the most complete marine species list. All biological data where self collected via scuba diving, validated and first published in an Oceanographic conference.
IMPRESSIVE SETTING, STUNNING WRECK
Zenobia is indeed a stunning wreck. You will be amazed by the detailed environment and the elements of the wreck. The scuba simulator and exploration of the wreck, together with the underwater gear and dive computer, will help you grasp the concepts of real diving!
PLAN YOUR NEXT SCUBA DIVE
Zenobia’s diving simulator is made in a realistic way which includes above all, an intelligent dive computer that keeps track of the hazards of scuba diving, such us drowning, oxygen toxicity, and risk of decompression sickness. You get a feedback of everything that happens during the dive, and all the data are saved in a form of a 3D dive route where you can easily access anytime or share it with your scuba diving friends.
SCUBA DIVE SIMULATOR:ZENOBIA FEATURES:
- Choose up to 3 different gasses from 21% to 99% Oxygen (backgas nitrox is offered as In app Purchase)
- explore Zenobia wreck in a 3d replica of the dive site
- explore the underwater sea life that occurs at the Zenobia wreck (based on scientific research)
- save your dive routes in 3D and share them with your dive buddies
- included an e-book about the story of Zenobia wreck and the marine life!
CALCULATIONS:
- Nitrogen exposure levels using the Bühlmann decompression algorithm
- No Deco limit (NDL)
- Central Nervous System toxicity (CNS)
- Decompression with the equivalent deco gasses
- Gasses consumption
- Gasses end of dive prediction
- Maximum Operating Depth (MOD)

Useful app, amazing wreck dive site. Very useful app for divers who want to explore the huge Zenobia wreck, which is considered to be the world's best wreck dive site. E-book on marine life is quite informative as well. What an incredible variety of sea life!
Emma Welsch
It's a great app and I can tell alot of time and work was placed into it. I get that you need videos in order to make it free, so ask people who are complaining about that if they would rather pay a bunch of money or watch a short 25 second video. Thanks to the team who created it!!!
Electra Georgiou
Great app! Very useful and realistic app for all the divers and sea enthousiasts. Gives you the opportunity to have an awesome diving experience and get a really close look at the ship wreck. Many thanks!

I have been scuba diving for over 12 years and am a BSAC (British Sub Aqua Club) Dive Leader, qualified to dive to 50m. I dived the Zenobia in 2012. This app, for free, is OK but I think there is room for improvement. I can't find what qualifications the app diver has and what depths they are qualified to dive to and how to advance. There is no information on 'training dives'. I have done 3 dives and worked out the max dive depth is about 24m, but I'm not sure how to advance him. The deco times don't increase after deeper dives. There's are no deep stops after a deeper dive. I worry that some people may think that a 1 minute stop at 3m OK OK for any dive. As a bit of fun, this is OK but there's nothing better than the real thing. Train and dive safely. You need to understand the dangers before you can enjoy the full beauty of the under water world.

Quite a good diving simulator and graphics are nice as well, even though some textures could be better, like in the sunken trucks. Species are actually distributed in depths that make sense for each one, which is a great plus! The swim speed in 1x speed is a bit too slow and maybe some speed control would be good, even if it affected SAC rates. Ascent speed control would be cool as well, so that we needed to watch out for that. Consider adding an optional buddy and a switch option to be the leader or the follower. And please add more dive sites! Like a temperate rocky reef!

Guys, this is defedently not a waste of time. C'mon, think with me, it's a great educational game. Great for kids my age in elementary or middle school. Love it! Come join me and these thousands of people and try for yourself!! Defedently a 5 star...

Hi montypythonish and thank you for your review! The max depth is 42m(you wrote 24m, I suppose is a typo). The implemented dive computer is using Bühlmann decompression algorithm where deco stops (at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 meters)are driven by the nitrogen load. Email me a screenshot of your dive profile to clear this up :) Quite a good diving simulator and graphics are nice as well, even though some textures could be better, like in the sunken trucks. Species are actually distributed in depths that make sense for each one, which is a great plus!

Kalia Aristidou April 21, 2017
Thank you! The swim speed is according to the real diver's speed (average 14m/min), and by changing the speed (button next to the right joystick) you actually manipulate the time passing by, and that effects also the gas consumption, CNS, and nitrogen levels.Send me an email and so i can give you a bonus for all that effort you putted on the review Guys, this is defedently not a waste of time.

Fake? have you even download the app before you review it?? Kalia Aristidou January 13, 2017
Thank you for your review! Kalia Aristidou December 23, 2016
Thanks for the review! I really appreciate it :) Kalia Aristidou May 17, 2017
Always glad to see reviews from scuba divers! Thank you for your review :)

Thank you Joseph Longmire! Keep on diving :) Kalia Aristidou May 19, 2017
Thank you Christos Pointer for your review :)
Keep on diving! I can't play The game doesn't let you get any dives right when you download it I don't get it please fix
Kalia Aristidou November 11, 2016
Hi blind_ foxx!Thanks for the review! If the app opens but you cannot dive that means you don't have a fast Internet connection (4g or wifi) in order to load the video adv. For every dive you have to watch one video adv. If the problem insists, please send me an email. You can find it under the developer section on app's page. The game doesn't gives any dives! You have to buy or watch a video. Please fix
Kalia Aristidou November 16, 2016
Hi Anindita Sinha. In order to watch the video you have to have a fast internet connection (WIFI or 4g network). Kalia Aristidou November 8, 2016
Thank you for reviewing my app :) Hi Kalia, I am diving the Zenobia again for the third time on this holiday, this app would be brilliant if it would work on my laptop. Is it available for laptop? Thanks
Kalia Aristidou September 18, 2016
Hi Neil! At this moment there are no plans of porting this app to PC/Mac versions. The main concept is to plan your dive while you are "in the move", so the focus is to publish it to all mobile platforms. If something is changed, I will notify you via this review.
Thanks for your interest and review! Hope you enjoy your holidays here in Cyprus :) Cool, I guess Well needs some improvement but this Neil guy has my last name
Kalia Aristidou October 6, 2016
Still working on the improvements! Thanks for your review :) Kalia Aristidou October 6, 2016
Thank you :) Is the thing that pops up when u first get the app safe...plz get back to me fast
Kalia Aristidou October 14, 2016
Hi Breanna Kidd! Thanks for your review.
I didn't get your question. Can you send me an email with more details? Interesting I want to explore inside the ship,lol still i like this
Kalia Aristidou October 21, 2016
Mike Olsen thanks for the review! Actually you can go inside the wreck. In the upper car deck, in the so called "cafeteria", and in the bridge. In real diving you can explore several inside rooms, but for safety reasons I included only the areas you can have a clear visible exit. FYI I just tried it and died unfortunately Lol but from what I see this is a great app. Some people just don't understand the buy/watching video thing. Starting out with 0 air I'm not crazy about, but I don't mind watching an ad here and there to get more air to play the game. There is a fine line between charging for things and letting people still play for free. So that being said, This is the best scuba diving app that I've ever seen. Fun, great graphics, easy, and time does pass quickly playing. Great job!! And Thanks for a making a realistic simulator.
Kalia Aristidou August 19, 2016
Thank you Ernie Webber for your kind review:)
Sometimes when I read all those reviews complaining about the ads I get frustrated.This project was full of blood sweat and tears.I released the free version with the intention to remove most of the cost away from the user.You review gives me that satisfaction that all my efforts were worth it!Thank u:) Awesome app even as a free one Haters will always hate. It's indicative of not understanding something. This app is a fair and comprehensive representation of a real diving experience. Though a bit challenging even at the beginner level, this app is extremely fun. Thank you to developers for your tireless efforts. Peace out :-)
Kalia Aristidou September 2, 2016
Indeed haters gonna hate! You can't fight that! Thank you for your kind review sir! Am really glad you liked my app! You made my day! I had to noted that! Keep on diving :) Not a free app. In violation of Google Play's Terms of Service. You can't list it as a free app unless you have at least one free dive. UPDATE: My bandwidth costs are pay-as-you-go. Which means these video ads cost.me.money.
Kalia Aristidou August 22, 2016
Gordon Wetmore all dives are free. Read the description before downloading. In the free version you have to watch a video adv in order to make a dive. There is also a paid version without any ads. Update: We all pay for banndwith internet, and we all have also wifi. Your comment is in violation with human rights. No one should work for free Get ready for Zenobia Wreck A great idea and amazing work on simulating diving at the Zenobia wreck!!! If you are a diver and especially if you plan to dive this wreck (or if you have dived it) i think you will like this app :)
Kalia Aristidou July 14, 2016
Thank you Melina Marcou for your kind review! Keep on diving and stay tuned for the update ;) Impressive simulation I am hoping to get over to dive the Zenobia next year, but in the mean time this is quite good. Personally, I am not entirely convinced about the excessive depth "notifications" that seem to be based on PADI's limits, but this is just a minor issue.
Kalia Aristidou August 8, 2016
Thank you David Tillotson for the review! Yes, the decompression algorithm was validated to fit the PADI's no deco limits, and the deco time is mainly a conservative version of Bühlmann's.
Diving to Zenobia it's a life experience in a scuba diver's life. I really hope you make it and live that ;) Stupid You start out with 0 dives. You have to watch a video or like them on Facebook to get an "extra free dive". Then the video says "video not ready".
Kalia Aristidou July 2, 2016
It also says "this action requires internet connection"
Also in the description I say that this app uses video ads in order to dive. There is also a paid option without any restrictions. Very nice!! Excellent idea and quite accurate! Where it can improve a) runs upside down on my Note 10 tablet, b) controls obscure vision and c) the turn control could be simpler or could be controlled by device orientation, like in a 360 photosphere.
Kalia Aristidou August 7, 2016
Thank you Alexis Petrides for reviewing my app :)
As for your suggestions
a) The app runs at landscape right side to all devices
b) I tried out invisible controls, and at the testing users found visible controls more easy to control the movement
c) That's a good idea, it could be an option in a future update ;)
Keep on diving! Cool concept. I like the idea. The movement, and the graphics are pretty well done. I would like to see more wrecks, and dive locations though. Possibly some reefs, or planes etc. Just to add a little variety.
Kalia Aristidou September 5, 2016
Thank you Michael Moran for your review and your suggestions! In the next update there will be info about the wreck and the marine life that accurs at the Zenobia wreck. But the whole consept is to do all the things you suggested! Keep on diving! Good Job! Technology magic is when you can take a virtual dive in a real wreck, while you are sitting on you couch in a different continent!! Hmm Zenobia is a good place to go!
Kalia Aristidou August 8, 2016
Zenobia is an excellent place to go! That's why i created this app! Thank you for the kind review :) Better not Better not download the app if you are not a scuba diver because you will never get the point of this app. I liked the 3d dive route plot!
Kalia Aristidou June 29, 2016
Koby Neighbour I am glad you liked the app! Keep on diving! Amazing!!! This has to be one of the best diving games i have ever played and yeah there are ads but hey,it could be worse.I mean,what do u expect from a free game.But back to the point this is an absolutely gorgeous game so keep up the good work:)
Kalia Aristidou August 27, 2016
Thank you Evan Livaccari for your kind review :)
I am happy you liked my app!
Keep on diving and there more to come in the next update ;) An educational app for scuba diving. Liked the speed mode, the movement controls are easy, although the prediction of gas consumption should have an alarm if you reach critical limits, clever usage of ads. Overall 5 star from me! Keep up the good work
Kalia Aristidou June 29, 2016
Cameron Dalton thank you for detail review! That's a good idea. Stay tuned for the update :) Lenovo Vibe P1 Αρκετά καλό :-) , Θέλει αρκετή δουλειά ακόμα, βάλε κάποιο timer να δείνει κανένα free dive χωρίς video, και κάνε κάτι με τις lenovo συσκευές δεν ανοίγει κάν, στο s3 neo που εχω παίζει μια χαρα
Kalia Aristidou August 26, 2016
Vasilis M ευχαριστώ για το review και τα suggestions! Ακόμη δουλεύω πάνω στην εφαρμογή..
Παράξενο, το δοκίμασα σε lenovo tab3 7 και τρέχει χωρίς προβλήματα. Μπορείς να μου στείλεις email με περισσότερες λεπτομέρειες? Kalia Aristidou July 1, 2016
Brock Pollard thank you! Close or far, if you want something you can at least try ;) Very nice app Thanks for promoting our Island as a scuba destination!! More dive sites can be added.
Kalia Aristidou June 28, 2016
Antonis Antorkas that's the plan! Thank you for reviewing my app! Stay tuned for more to come! A good wee app Ok, so you need to take 30 seconds of your life to watch an advert, big deal. This is a good app and the more I use it, the more features I find.
