The player is part of an underwater archaeological team in charge of three famous wrecks: the Roman galley Isis, the German battleship Bismarck, and the RMS Titanic.
Based on the experiences of Dr. Ballard, Ballard commented that "My main goal for this CD-ROM was to bring alive all the challenges, intense excitement and triumphs that I experienced during my many voyages of undersea exploration".[1]
It was "developed over two years by 40 Russian scientists".[2]
LearningWare Reviews felt it was a "spectacular" idea but very challenging.[3] PC World thought that an intriguing premise was let down by poor execution.[4] CBS quoted Ballard as saying that he praised the graphical realism.[5] Chicago Tribune deemed it "sophisticated and thoroughly engaing".[6] Praising the games, Washington Post noted how "Few people make coffee-table CD-ROMs like this anymore".[7] PC Mag deemed it "marvelous".[8] Popular Science gave note of the game's realism.[9]
