Manufacturer Description

Aquanaut's Holiday is a surprising experience of discovery. As an investigative aquanaut you launch in your vessel the HOLIDAY on an open-ended undersea journey. Study the wonders of the marine canyon and take a leisurely stroll through the mysterious harmonious submerged world as it reveals scene after scene of surreal tranquility. The calming influence of the soothing atmosphere and gently rolling currents reawakens the inner self with a sense of peace and well being.

Product Description

In AQUANAUGHTS HOLIDAY, you take the role of a world-famous oceanographer. Unfortunately, the press, the government, and environmentalists are constantly bombarding you. Seeing the stress that you are under, your boss sends you on a long-term assignment to get away and recharge your batteries. Go to the last unexplored part of the ocean, map it, talk to the wildlife, and create a coral reef refuge. The best part about the whole assignment is that there is no time limit, no monsters to destroy, and no evil plots to thwart. Just kick back, relax, and do everything at your own pace. What you want to accomplish is AQUANAUGHTS HOLIDAY is up to you. Just don't relax so much that you drown. Underwater 3D rendered graphic simulation, variety of fish and sunken items, create and populate a reef, tranquil music and sound effects. Release Region: United StatesRelease Date: July 7, 1996

4.0 out of 5 stars Weird, Wild, and Wacky, November 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Aquanauts Holiday (Video Game)

This game is hard to classify...actually "game" is not really correct...Basically, you just swim around a vast underwater environment...you explore and occasionally find some cool hidden areas (such as a sunken ship). You can "interact" with the sea life and fish by sending several sonic pulses using your PlayStation controller. That's pretty much the entire game. It may sound boring -- and for some it will be -- but I am strangely addicted to this odd game. It gives me the creeps to explore the underworld...but I like it. You never know what you stumble on next...

I just picked this up for under$7 brand new! Do I know any Japanese? No, but I figure it'll be a fun unique game to own. Plus exploring the deep blue, I'm in!
