20,000 Leagues Under the Sea	Coktel Vision	1988	The game is based on an 1870 novel by Jules Verne. On July 5th, 1867 the government decided to launch the famous ship the "Abraham Lincoln", which left on the trail of a sea monster. The great French professor Mr. Arronax took part in the expedition. The weeks passed without any sign of the monster's presence in the area, when, one day, 300 miles from the shores of Queen Charlotte's Island... three members of the expedition set out on board the Nautilus, a submarine navigated by Captain Nemo. The player takes Arronax's role to find out more. Most of the game is spent on the Nautilus, which consists of three rooms: the living room, the control room, and the library. There the player can manipulate objects and talk to people to receive hints on what to do next and the state of the Nautilus. With the map, he influences the route. Sometimes the player leaves the submarine to explore other locations, and respectively solves puzzles to receive more hints or to solve action sequences, e.g., fighting against a shark. The game is played in real-time, which means the key to success is being in the right location at the right time. This also results in various possibilities to render the game unwinnable and causes waiting times. For the same reason, the player also needs to watch Nemo's mood. If they anger Nemo, e.g., by manipulating the ship instruments, he locks the player into their room and valuable time passes. The game is played completely in point & click and has no function to save progress.* [80]* [21]* [76]* [82]* [85]* [22]*** [52]	Amiga

ABZÛ	505 Games (Giant Squid)	2016	ABZÛ is an grand descent into the depths of the sea, where players explore ocean environments with fluid swimming controls. The experience draws inspiration from the deep innate narrative that we carry within our subconscious: the story of ABZÛ is a universal myth that resonates across cultures. The name references a concept from the oldest mythologies; it is the combination of the two ancient words AB, meaning ocean, and ZÛ, meaning to know. ABZÛ is the ocean of wisdom.* [100]* [12]	PS4

Aquanaut	Addictive Games;Miles Computing (Fissionchip Software)	1989	In Aquanaut, the protagonist has to find and kill the leader of an alien race which wants to destroy Earth. This alien is smart and is not easy to find, but humanity managed to track him down to an underwater location in the Caribbean. The game is divided into three levels with distinctive different gameplay mechanics. The first level is a traditional, horizontally scrolling shooter. The protagonist, equipped with diving gear, has to make his way to the alleged position of the alien ship. Enemies are mutated underwater animals which are shot with the harpoon. There are also friendly creatures like dolphins and mermaids (their kiss gives an extra life) and military crates which contain additional gear. Air is limited and has to be refilled at certain parts of the level. In level two, the player has to investigate an underwater maze. He needs to find and grab various items which are used at another place to proceed. This section is puzzle-oriented and the action concentrates on obstacles which need to be avoided and single enemies. Level three is also a maze in which objects need to be found (a decoder and keys) which need to be brought to a final location. However, it is set on land (Atlantis, to be exact) and therefore air is no longer an issue. The fights take a "run and gun" approach where the player shoots a lot of aliens and dodges their attacks. In this section the game flips the screen when another room is entered.* [142]* [80]* [90]* [24]* [99]* [76]* [49]* [105]* [102]* [23]* [85]* [22]* [1]* [37]	Amiga

AquaNox	Fishtank Interactive;JoWooD Productions (Massive Development)	2001	[b]difficulty-ingame[/b] - only at the various stations and other ports.*In the game's backstory, humanity engaged on an endless war as the resources on the surface dwindled and were insufficient to sustain their desired level of living (or any level for that matter). The wars eventually destroyed the surface world completely, making it incapable of sustaining life of any sort. So the remaining humanity live out their lives below the devastated surfaece, in the depths of the oceans.The water is no longer calm. The undersea world has undergone a transformation from tranquil environment to a place of unspeakable violence, graphic murder and horrific danger. It is now the 27th century and mercenaries such as 'Emerald' Dead Eye Flint ply their deadly trade among the warring forces of man and nature. Gamers take the role of Flint, taking command of a loosely aligned force of fellow mercenaries who hire themselves out to the powerful leaders of this inhospitable world.

Aquaria	Humble Indie Bundle (Bit Blot)	2010	It's out, see the gameplay video.*[media=youtube]S7wPM-GX2Yg[/media][media=youtube]ZBHemKy81Ms[/media] [Zerothis][[youtube:iTRJVhrvwLg]] [Sanguine]*Originally Aquaria was not going to have Linux port, but Alec apparently flipped over and ported it in one night (only the sound engine really needed porting). The most difficult part of the porting is case sensitivity in the filesystem rather than any coding part, Mac and Windows ignore case when accessing files while Linux doesn't, making files that open quite well on Win/Mac result in file not found in Linux. They're working to convert all the files and their names in scripts/code to match, so the issues will probably go away after a bit. [s]The Linux release may be a bit iffy still.[/s] (The thread shown in the source link has most of the stuff related to Linux port. Just scan for posts by Alec.) Update: Released as part of the 2010 Humble Indie Bundle after which Aquaria was also open-sourced. [Sanguine]	Linux
Aquaria	Bit Blot	2007	A medio caballo entre el Ecco The Dolphin y un Metroidvania, este juego destaca por su atmósfera y por el buen diseño de los niveles, que te seducen para ser explorados. Imprescindible, de banda sonora sublime. 8 de 10*Latest version: 1.1.2 (as of ?)2005. Project started 2007-12-07 by BitBlot (download; non-Steam version) 2008-12-15 by BitBlot through Steam (download; with Steam achievements added)[[youtube:G40cXjcz-9c]]*Minimum: * 1.6 GHz CPU * 256 MB RAM * 200 MB free HD space***A beautiful, hand-crafted 2D adventure Lonely, restless Naija has spent her entire life wrestling with questions about her identity. We join her as she takes her first steps away from the comfort of home and into new, potentially dangerous waters. Through exploration and magical combat, Naija will unearth the history of Aquaria and connect with beings lost in the depths of time. On the search to discover the fate of her people, her destiny and that of Aquaria's will be forever altered. A massive, underwater fantasy world to explore Aquaria is an action-oriented, non-linear 2D side-scrolling game. Using an intuitive and fluid mouse control system, Naija can deftly swim through and explore a massive, handcrafted world that is teeming with undersea life. Along the way, she will encounter literally hundreds of different types of plants and animals and explore many ingame miles of hidden caves, lost ruins, and other strange places. As kids, we grew up playing the brilliant 2D action and roleplaying games of the time. With Aquaria, we've aimed to capture the excitement of those games in a new way, using updated technology, controls, and visuals. This is a game with a very personal touch, from the characters and story to the creature interaction and expansive environments. Seamless, non-linear gameplay In order to make the experience as engaging as possible, we created an interface that lets the player easily control Naija with just a two-button mouse. The HUD is minimal (restricted to only a minimap in the lower-right corner of the screen). In place of textual dialogue that most games rely on we used voice acting to drive the story without interrupting the gameplay. Through a realtime interface, Naija can sing songs and cast spells without going to a menu screen. With practice, these spells can be cast easily to interact with the environment, solve puzzles, or combine them for strategic effect during combat. Certain spells will allow you to change form, creating new ways of playing the game depending on the form chosen. [Bit Blot]	Windows
