You’ve been summoned—alone, in secret. Mr. Matthews, the eccentric leader of the Keepers of Balance, has one obsession: the Galaxy Core. It’s no longer safe, and only you can retrieve it.

Armed with strange gear and an aging submarine, you plunge into the depths of a hidden ocean realm to retrieve a lost artifact. And when you return, ask yourself: What did you really bring back with you? The Galaxy Core awaits. But so does the cost.

‍

Defenders of the Sunken Realm is an improved and reimagined version of the award winning game originally found at The Escapement.

It’s 1976, and your favorite band, System Overlord, is rocking the airwaves!

‍

The amps are warming up, the turntable’s spinning, and their World Domination Tour is about to melt faces across the galaxy!

‍

But somewhere out in the void, someone is listening a little too closely. It’s the Dawn of the Machine, and things are about to get way less groovy. With portals cracking, shadows lurking, and synths screaming throughout the cosmos, you just might be humanity’s last hope.

‍

So drop the needle, crank it to 11, and hold on tight because something big is waking up… and the whole galaxy is about to feel the shockwave!
