Barotrauma is a quirky 2D co-op submarine simulator with survival horror elements, inspired by games such as FTL: Faster Than Light, Rimworld, Dwarf Fortress and Space Station 13. It’s a very nice Sci-Fi game that effectively combines some greatly crafted ragdoll physics and alien sea monsters that want to get you with practical and synchronized teamwork that goes alongside some existential dread and fear.

EMBRACE THE DEEP ABYSS

In the not too distant future, humanity has managed to fly to Jupiter’s moon EUROPA. With its irradiated icy surface, life can only be found in the ocean below the ice. Travel through a vicious and unforgiving underwater world to discover what lies in the depths of Europa. Stay alert at all times: danger in Barotrauma doesn’t announce itself and never sleeps.

HELP YOUR CREW SUCCEED, OR MAKE SURE NO ONE DOES

There are as many ways to enjoy the Barotrauma experience as there are ways to die and fail in it. Carefully select and work together with your crew to achieve your objectives and goals, or prepare for betrayal when you have a traitor on board. Play with your friends, random strangers, or against your worst enemies.

EXPLORE, OPERATE, COMMUNICATE

Navigate through the underwater world effectively and complete missions for the last remnants of humankind, explore the ruins of a long lost alien civilization, flee or fight with the monsters that would surely attack you at any given opportunity. Operate the complex interconnected on-board systems and devices such as the sonar, the nuclear reactor, weapons, engines and pumps. Communication is of key importance to your mission!

EXPERIMENT, CRAFT, CREATE AND NAVIGATE

Master the complex on-board wiring over time and the comprehensive crafting as well as the medical systems to help you support your endeavor. Create your own submarine and monster types with the built-in editor to rival the standard versions. You can even freely tap directly into our source code and mod away anything you desire and wish to experiment with.
