## What is Gulp Deep?

Gulp Deep is an eat-and-grow ocean game.

▶ Eat, grow, survive
Start as a 1 cm fry, swallow any fish smaller than you and stay away from the big mouths. As you grow, shallow-water food gets smaller, so follow the food schools down to deeper seas for bigger prey. And watch out for seagulls if you grow too big in the shallows!

▶ Deep Expedition
Dive from floor 1 to floor 30, clearing a different goal on each floor: eat, grow, hunt or survive. Earn up to 3 stars per floor, and face a boss on floors 10, 20 and 30.

▶ Deep Survival
Your fish attacks on its own. Dodge the schools swarming in from every side and survive for 7 minutes. Pick new weapons and skills every level up, and gulp down any fish smaller than you. Swallow a glowing fish to borrow its power for a while. Bosses across 8 chapters, gear to upgrade, buddy fish and daily, weekly and monthly challenges are waiting.

▶ Live online arena
Jump into a shared sea at any time, no rooms and no waiting. Grow bigger than the other players and the AI fish to finish first. Share a 4-digit code with friends to meet in a sea of your own.

▶ Weekly and all-time ranking
The Solo score, Deep Expedition stars and Arena size rankings start fresh every Monday. Chase this week's top 10, see last week's top 3 on the podium, and find your own rank right on the result screen.

▶ Missions and check-in rewards
Daily, weekly and monthly missions plus a 7-day check-in streak. Finish them for pearls and gems.

▶ 89 real fish species
From anchovies, clownfish and piranhas to sharks, whale sharks and anglerfish. Every fish has its own speed and special skill: ink, dash, shock, suction, decoys and more. Deep-sea fish glow in the dark and lure prey with their light.

▶ Seven seas
Mangrove lagoon, coral reef, kelp forest, sea cave, shipwreck sea, glowing abyss and hydrothermal volcano. The deeper you go, the darker and more dangerous it gets, and the bigger the rewards.

▶ Your own aquarium
Every fish you raise swims in your aquarium. Build a house with pearls and upgrade it all the way to an undersea palace to earn pearls every hour, and feed your fish every 3 hours. Tap the water and your fish swim over, and the more kinds of decor you place, the faster your pearl spring flows. Switch to View mode to watch your tank change from day to night. Decorate it with backdrops and ornaments, and dress up your fish with hats, faces and effects.

Solo gives you 10 free runs that refill one every 5 minutes. If you get eaten, watch an ad or share the game to keep going. No sign-up and no purchases.
