Ever have a friend of family member tell you a story of some glory or victory that was clearly too farfetched to be true? Of course you have, and so has Merryn, the 12 year old protagonist in Song of the Deep. Or that's what she's always believed. When Merryn has to go in search of her missing father, however, she quickly finds out that his apparent "tall tales" weren't so tall after all.

Merryn crafts her own submarine and gear as she sets off in search of the lost fisherman, and will have to add improvements and gadgets to these as she explores the depth. While players can be harmed on this adventure, the real focus of the game is around underwater exploration and the ability to learn how various items can be useful in the unpredictable depths.

Told through the eyes of Merryn's wonder, the narrative in Song of the Deep will be tense and exciting in equal measure. The unlikely hero is a marvelous gaming protagonist when employed correctly, and Merryn looks to be a great addition to this illustrious list of successes.
