Loved the old Amiga 1200 and that 'contour map ' led to a heck of a lot of fun situations. Happy days.
Thanks for reminding us |

Looks like a neat game, too bad I was only 1 year old when it came out.
What is the contour map all about? Does it map out the ocean floor or something? That'd be a neat feature. Imagine navigating through some deep sea valleys in that. |

Yep, sure was. It was a sorta mock 3D view of the immediate area for navigation and such. Pretty good for an old 386 game. I spent hours as a kid playing away... my first sub game actually. |

I love that guy in the Soviet control room with a coffee mug that says "I *heart* *hammer & sickle*".
That's comedy. |

See post. I just loved seeing that 3-D wireframe Nav screen again <Sigh> |

I used to play this alot of my 286 pc
the sound used to be pretty bad, i rember the joy of buying a new audio card in the hope the sounds would be better - like the voices would actually work.
but alas only the into screen of the game (the sub shot) would play music and the rest of the game kept the same quality sound
still goes down as one of the most played and enjoyable games i ever had during those old times |
