Riiiggghht…..no instructions on WOS with this one, but after bit of investigation, I’ve worked them out (ok I found an inlay on another site). I couldn’t get anywhere without them so pay attention. You play a diver swimming along 4 levels in an ocean. There are greens sharks and white fish to kill with your harpoon but your main task is to rescue a swimming man and a purply jellyfish thingy. Once done, the next levels have pearls to get, and mermaids to rescue. The baddies change and Neptune pops up randomly looking rather like an annoyed green witch. The graphics are rather on the odd side, quite large and colourful but a bit like teletext/ceefax. The sharks crumble to bones satisfyingly when shot and the crabs turn into crab paste. The sound has a continuous medley of tunes – again this is rather strangely done. Overall not a bad little game with a nice title screen. I found it enjoyably daft, but too easy once you know what you’re doing.

It's scoring under 5.00 on WoS. I don't think it's that bad.
It's a simple subaquatic game in which you have to kill or avoid fish and submarine creatures of all kinds and sizes, moving along three or four platform levels, scrolling in loop as you move, and with the occasional hole in which you can dive. The aim is to save what I thought was a sort of drowned sailor with wings or fings. When you touch him, he exclaims "my hero!". So maybe he's a girl, your girlfriend or something. Or you just like sailors. [And he likes scuba divers]. Anyway, the graphics are a bit like an early arcade or an old console game, and so the gameplay, the sprites are a bit blocky. I quite like it, to say the truth. The green sharks are really ugly. Are they supposed to be so? Who knows. Anyway, the controls are quite responsive, which is essential in a game like this and helps making it quite playable. Don't shoot the purple blobs. I don't know what they are.
