Aqua Escape is an underwater arcade game you can play with your mouth. Open wide and the little fish opens its mouth with you, then swims up. Slip through the gaps, dive through five zones and see how deep you can go. TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Mouth: open your mouth to swim up. The fish mirrors your mouth, wide open or just parted. • Fingers: tap anywhere to swim up. Works on every device, no camera needed. • The same course in both modes. PLAY HANDS-FREE • Keep your mouth open for a second to start a run, or to play again. No need to touch the screen. • A quick warm-up of three openings tunes the detection to your face. YOUR CAMERA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Face data is processed on your device, in real time. Camera images are never saved and never sent. A FAIR COURSE, FIVE ZONES • Lagoon, Reef, Wreck, Trench and Abyss: hooks, anchors, jellyfish and mines, each zone with its own look. • Every gap is within reach, and what you see is what you hit. A NEW DIVE EVERY DAY • The Daily Dive: one course for everyone, two challenges, one with your finger and one with your mouth. • Reach either goal to grow your shared streak, or both for a Double Dive. • Streak rewards at 3, 7 and 14 days, and today's leaderboard for each mode.
