Aquatico PC

Aquatico is a city builder strategy game, enriched with survival elements. It was developed by Digital Reef Games studio, and its release was handled by Overseer Games.

Plot

Aquatico spreads before us a grim vision of the future, in which the surface of the Earth has become a barren wasteland uninhabitable. In order to survive, humanity had to move below the surface of the oceans. Before it can settle there, however, it will have to face new challenges and dangers.

Game mechanics

In Aquatico, we observe the action from a top-down view. We build from scratch and then expand the underwater city. We create new structures in a tier system. While the seabed is covered with basic infrastructure and manufacturing and industrial buildings, above them float residential buildings and public buildings enclosed under giant domes.

In order for our underwater metropolis to prosper, we need to ensure a steady supply of raw materials, create long production chains to produce essential goods, and research and develop new technologies. This is because the prevailing underwater conditions require the use of a variety of more or less futuristic equipment; from submarines, special robots and drones, to oxygen extractors or the aforementioned domes. Over time, we can start organizing expeditions to find out what secrets the underwater depths hold, as well as gain valuable rewards and rare resources.

Since all this would not be possible without people, their needs also need to be given a lot of attention. Besides, our actions attract the attention of underwater fauna, from whose attacks we must protect ourselves in advance.

Technical aspects

Aquatico features high-quality graphics. The underwater depths are presented in a realistic way, and the futuristic buildings are full of small details and flavors.
