You’re in a submarine during World War 2. And you’re on the side of the Nazis, which is a bit uncomfortable. You travel around on a map of the North Sea, until you hit some ships, then you get a 3D view of the sea and have to kill all the enemy ships and planes.

It's quite atmospheric at times, I'll give it that.

You’ve got torpedos, big guns for firing at ships and anti-aircraft guns for shooting down planes. It’s all very easy to use (though the anti-air guns could use an option to invert the y-axis), but there’s not a lot of tension or danger. I’ve died once because a ship hit me, but other than that I don’t seem to have been in any danger, even when the icon in the top left of the screen showed I’d been spotted.

It’s not bad, really, but it’s all a bit lifeless. I’m still playing it now and again, hoping that it might click, but I can’t honestly recommend it based on the first hour or so of play.
