Here's a game from the 90's that even at the time was a sort of throwback. "Aquaphobia", it's not the most sophisticated game, but it has some good points. It's an action game, and that's a plus if you're short on time and need a game fix. It's hard, so you don't have to worry about mastering it too quick, and it takes place underwater, a setting I like especially in an action game. You are a diver and you have harpoons to throw at the angry underwater things that come at you. You have a limited supply of air, and that's what makes this game a real challenge. You can't just hang back and kill stuff you have to worry about how much air you have in the tank. Air only drops down at specific places, so if you take too long, it's death for you. I like this little spin on a time limit, because you also have to grab the air without getting killed. So, it's not an amazing game that you want to see immortalized in a temple of game heroes, but it's solid and you should have some fun with it. Hmmmmmm, Will there be any deep sea adventure in "Deeds Of Yore"? Dive! Dive!
