I guess you would this game a shoot em up. It takes place underwater in a sub. It is loosely based on the movie. The game is alright, nothing really special. It is pretty difficult and is also kind of repetitive. There are power ups for your missiles, forward shooting and surface shooting. You also can pick up repair power ups. There is no time limit on the stages but you will slowly be forced forward. You can take your time but not forever. There are many tight squeezes in the many underwater obstacles you must overcome to advance. Once you get the hang of the controls, it is not too bad. Not one of my favorite games but it is OK I guess <shrug>. Overall, I give it a 5 out of 10 stars. Nothing special, just a typical NES game.
