Secrets of the Deep (1991)

Secrets of the Deep is a fun, fast filler in which players play as scuba divers who are trying to raise as much treasure from the ocean as possible before time runs out. This task is complicated by limited air supply, hazards, and fierce competition from other divers.

In the course of a turn, players balance using different air tanks to dive the ocean for treasure and return to the boat. The treasures are distributed in three depths, and their values are hidden underneath like the swimmers in the Survive! family of games. If a player fails to strike the correct balance to make it back to the boat, they will have to drop their treasure. Players can also use dolphins to either aid themselves or hinder other divers. A player must ask themselves if they will go for the deep chests and get left by the boat or if they will dive shallow and leave their buddies behind.

Secrets of the Deep is a mix of light strategy and calculation, yet there is some random chance and the cards add a bit of suspense. Although the game is a bit luck based, the moving ship keeps the game short and adds a “press-your-luck” appeal, and there are opportunities for some good tactical moves in the midst of all the chaos.
