Description:
Aquanaut's Holiday is a surprising experience of discovery. As an investigative aquanaut, you launch your vessel, the HOLIDAY, on an open-ended undersea journey. Venture the wonders of a mysterious 3D underwater world and divulge the pleasures of unlimited hours of pure discovery. Discover scores of sunken treasures and unveil your own personal ocean.

Now you can emulate Jacques Cousteau thanks to PlayStation and the unique gaming experience that is Aquanaut's Holiday. Safely aboard your own personal submersible, journey into the depths of a tropical ocean to enlist the help of the abundant marine life in an attempt to create a coral reef to help support the creatures of the deep.

The environmental message is clear, and so are the amazing graphics that accurately recreate over 100 species of sea life through a rendered first-person perspective. Innovative use of simulated movement, 3D panoramic graphics and depth-cueing brings to life the harsh but captivatingly beautiful world beneath the waves. No pressure, no time limits, no power-ups - just a refreshingly open-ended game.

Features:
  • Search and discover items of fascination – lost cities, shipwrecks and other sunken treasures.
  • Converge with sharks, schools of butterfly fish, barracuda, sting rays and countless other ocean dwellers.
  • Create a corl reef choosing its location size and contours. Build it and the fish will come.
  • Amplify the Zen experience as the original New Age music deepens your meditation
