The Scalies are inviting you to discover the abysses this season

Joe Searchall's been sniffing around again! Seeking vestiges of the world before, he's gone even deeper into the abyss. But this time, it isn't looking good for him because every search has its price and the locals intend to make that perfectly clear. Until February 11, dive deep into the ocean depths and hold your breath – tightly because the ocean might never give it back…

For old Joe, anything that shines at the bottom of the ocean is an irresistible excuse to dive. Shipwrecks? Searched. Treasures? Brought to the surface. Sea monsters? "Landlubber nonsense!" If it shines, then it's worth its weight in kamas, and no fish will convince him otherwise! However… it appears that his archaeo-lucrative digs have drawn the attention of some very bulging eyes – no, no, not Miranda's. Diving where even the Twelvian sun dares not penetrate, Joe has made a discovery… one that is very much alive. In the abyss lurks famished beasts – the Scalies. Going by the looks on their faces, they aren't pleased to have visitors. Tourists must not be welcome in these parts…

Maybe they'll make an exception?

20,000 Fragments Under the Sea…

Under Joe Searchall's diving suit, you'll experience the scene as if you were there! Your mission? Don't get chewed up. Survive five turns against waves of monsters that are as fishy as they are undesirably sticky.

Luckily, Joe wasn't born at low tide yesterday! Perhaps because of his extensive experience as a fearless diver, or simply because he's afraid of being eaten, the sea soned diver is remarkably good at gasping for air… six times over. And that's a good thing, since that's how many times he'll be able to attack these marine monsters that are dead-set on keeping him fathoms below the surface.

After each wave has been pushed back, mysterious artifacts will appear around you, providing that old sea dog Joe with very useful powers. These powers can evolve, so make smart choices since no single one can ensure you make it to the surface in one piece! Don't waste any time choosing, either, because starting with the seventh wave, Snapsharks will set their fins on you – and they're no joke!

All Joe wanted was to plunder the seas…

Treasures Ahoy!

For those who know the ropes when it comes to good deals – unlike Joe – the season's Platinum Pass is a real undersea treasure trove! A full fifty-six (56) unique rewards could send old man Searchall into early retirement… It just goes to show that the ocean depths aren't entirely hostile and contain true marvels like the Red Tunami pet, the Scaly-Head headgear and the Tenacious Seaweed halo. And if you want to unearth even more treasures worthy of an expert archaeologist, check out the in-game Shop!

For Joe, everything that shines has a price; for the Scalies, everything that moves tastes good.
