Created by marine science non-profit Lionfish Central, and narrated by the world-renowned marine scientist and researcher: Dr. Steve Gittings, Shipwreck Discovery immerses players in the world of real shipwrecks off the coast of Destin, Florida. As a reef-tender, you are responsible for growing an artificial reef onto a freshly sunken ship. Cull Lionfish, collect trash, and grow corals to attract myriad varieties of marine life. Contribute to making the ocean a cleaner and more biodiverse place - virtually and in real life. A portion of every purchase goes to Lionfish Central which does the same critical work you will be doing in-game. {"height":640,"type":"image","width":1920} Your coral won't grow all at once, and you can't speed run your way to a cleaner ocean. Featuring a real-time tracking system, you'll have to keep the wreck clean over multiple visits to see what each reef can truly flourish into. Enjoy the immersive underwater soundscape and interact with massive schools of lifelike fish that dynamically respond to you and your surroundings.

🌊 Dive into Shipwreck Adventures!

Prepare to strap on your virtual diving gear because Shipwreck Discovery is here to redefine underwater exploration! This isn’t your average arcade-style dive—it’s a breathtaking, hyper-realistic simulation that lets you plunge into the depths of history without ever leaving your living room. Forget about risky decompression stops or actual PADI certifications; here, you get the thrill of diving real shipwrecks with none of the danger (and all of the awe). From the moment you descend into the crystal-clear waters, you’re immersed in a world where every bubble, current, and marine creature feels alive. The shipwrecks aren’t just models—they’re full-scale replicas of real-world historical sites, each with its own story etched into the rusted metal and coral-encrusted wood. You’ll feel the weight of history as you swim through these underwater time capsules, discovering hidden artifacts and lost secrets. But this isn’t just a passive dive—oh no! Shipwreck Discovery challenges you with a variety of tasks that make every expedition feel meaningful. Hunt down invasive lionfish that threaten the delicate coral reefs, because these pesky invaders are wreaking havoc on the ecosystem. Roll up your sleeves (metaphorically, of course) and tackle underwater cleanup missions by collecting discarded rubbish—yes, even in the deep blue! And if you’re feeling eco-friendly, help regrow coral gardens to restore these underwater havens to their former glory. Need to cover more ground? No problem! Hop on your sleek underwater sea scooter and zoom through the ocean like a pro, exploring hidden nooks and crannies of each wreck site. The freedom to move at your own pace—whether you’re a leisurely sightseer or a mission-driven eco-warrior—makes every dive unique. This early-access gem promises more wrecks, new sites.

Really Fun Game

I think Shipwreck Discovery is really fun because you get to explore underwater, catch lionfish to help keep the reef clean, and learn about the history of old shipwrecks. It feels like an adventure, and I learned a lot while having fun. I think it's a really cool game!
