Troubled Waters is a turn-based retro horror game. You wake up in a spaceship unable to remember much and are sent to find an ancient mirror at the bottom of an alien ocean. Nothing is as it seems and what awaits you is only pain and terror; however, the watcher is here to guide you.
On your journey to the abyss and to uncover the mirror and truth, you will encounter various apparitions in the waters. Ancient artefacts can be collected and sold to the watcher to buy rope, which you need to advance, as well as precious charms to protect you in your next plunges.
However, these troubled waters also host many other entities, and you are not welcome. Use your 3 tools, the orientator, the globe and the cross to navigate these waters, collect loot and avoid dangerous entities.
You will soon find however, that something big and terrifying is chasing you. Make sure you listen for cues and avoid the leviathan if you want to make it to the mirror.
