Given its serene setting, soothing music, and ballet-like swimming mechanics, developer Giant Squid’s underwater adventure Abzu could almost be mistaken for a scuba-diving simulation or peaceful exploratory experience.
BLG writes: "If the best way to overcome your fears is to face them head-on, then playing underwater games should be an efficient way to help you get over the fear of the deeps, better known as Thalassophobia. Of course, it all depends on the game because plenty of them are terrifying regardless of whether or not you’re afraid of big bodies of water. Don’t worry, though, because this article is all about serene and relaxing underwater games. At least for the most part."
It’s probably too old for the list, but Ecco the Dolphin was a good’r back in the day.
The beautiful underwater adventure ABZÛ gets a physical Nintendo Switch by Super Rare Games.
Abzû is a gorgeous indie title that takes place in the ocean and unites fish and a robot. Check out The Never Yak's review here at Nintendo Link.
