Take control of a surfaced submarine and use your Tigerfish torpedoes to sink the enemy ships. Just touch screen to launch torpedoes in the direction of your finger. Watch out for incoming depth charges and use your canon to destroy them before they hit your sub. Enemy ships can fire either single shots or devastating barrages, watch out for the destroyer as it can fire staccato Barrages. Mines! Every ten seconds you can launch a mine, up to 6 mines can be in theatre in one go. Be Careful not to destroy your own mines with torpedoes! Don't let too many ships escape otherwise its game over! The game starts off with just one enemy ship but soon builds into an all our fight for survival. Try not to let the depth charges get to close otherwise the explosions can temporarily blind you.
