This is one of the best under the sea metroidvanias I have ever played. The controls are intuitive and flow well. Going in I expected the movement to be floaty and annoying, however it was the opposite! Definitely a must play on PS4.

This game is enchantingly beautiful, a steal for what I paid just under $20AUD, the story, the sound, the water, the underwater world that was created, one can see there is a lot of love put into this game, for $20AUD you cannot go wrong buying this and I don't think anyone will regret it, after all haven't we wall pretended at some stage in our young lives that we were 20000 leagues under the sea as Captain Nemo or Ned ?

Very enjoyable and pleasant game with great game design and music. At times it can be annoying, but still fun

Song of the deep is a pretty good adventure that doesn't costs much for great visuals,great puzzels and good music.
It was like i was Nemo,which is a good thing
Unfortunately the game is short and has bugs and wasn't a game that will stay long in my head

The Pros:
-stylistically beautiful and the narrator is an Irish lady!
-Interesting albeit light world building
The OKs:
-Combat consists of punching (with your sub), shooting, and throwing. When enemies attack it is almost always in a wide open space and so each battle feels the same. Even the last boss fight is just a wide open area with waves of enemies.
-Puzzles and obstacles are relaxing and really go a long way to give you that nice tranquil vibe to mesh with the artstyle.
The Cons:
-gotta mention it's bad framerate. Everytime you swim (dive?) over a save point the framerate drops absurdly. Even besides that there are some dips but I never felt it affected gameplay.
-Few cases of game breaking bugs I have heard about and I was affected by one myself. So somehow I never got an upgrade to my gun, I expect a bug that makes interact-able items to be non interact-able is the culprit, and I progressed pretty far without it until I got to a point of no return where I needed it to break a wall. Usually a game will force you to use a mandatory item shortly after getting it so I can't help but feel that the design choice not to do that coupled with the bug really boned me.
Conclusion:
-If you are on the fence I wouldn't suggest it. If you are mesmerized by its beauty and tranquility then sure, give it a shot.

Firstly, the game starting have no any tutorial. The Graphics are ugly but take much system resource to run (not optimized for PC).
Secondly, the game's sound and music are bad.
You may regret to buy this game!
