About this game

Enter a vast, underwater cosmos: a mysterious interconnected world of tentacles, sharp teeth, and black ink, where your survival depends on your ability to adapt in a continually changing environment. But this is just on the surface… Lurking below the surface lie mysteries so bizarre they hardly seem natural. The Deep is a deck of 87 unique traits you’ll discover over the course of many games. These over-powered traits represent the unknown: the undiscovered wonders of the deep ocean.

Based on the hit board game, Oceans offers a beautifully crafted strategy game experience. The reef and 20 deep cards are completely free to play (and ad-free!), and you may also join one multiplayer game per day free. A one-time upgrade to the Complete Game features 87 Deep Cards, 21 Scenarios, and multiple hard AI personalities for endless replay fun. You can now play online against others on any platform, in real time or asynchronously. Purchasing the Complete Game allows you to create your own decks for use in singleplayer and multiplayer, and create your own multiplayer games.

Venture into the Deep at your own risk!

Ratings and reviews

One of my favorite games in real life. The app *was* really well made and maybe will be again. I've uninstalled for now. Lack of three or more players has always been a shortcoming, but lately the game keeps crashing. Always as the AI is determining a move and frequently when I've put it in a bad position. A side note that may or may not be related: my watch always disconnects from my phone Bluetooth right before the game crashes. The game crashes and then my watch immediately reconnects.

Not great. I don't own the boardgame, but I assume the app is a faithful conversion. But there are two problems that make it too frustrating to play at present. As others have mentioned, the function to show a card in close-up/zoom is so inconsistent it spoils the game for me - it often takes half a dozen or more tries for it to work. Made worse by the fact that the card text is too small for comfort on a phone - I have a big screen and still find everything is too small to read without strain.

I love this game, both the digital and physical. This game would be 5 star, but the crashing has been an on going issue for so long. As others have said, it happens when the opponent has its turn. Presumably put into a difficult decision. Please put an end these crashes! (And add the option to add more fish)
