Special heating plants and hot-steam vents give off thermal radiation. Since the region is arctic, body temperature becomes a concern when venturing above the waves. There are land masses and icebergs that occasionally have something interesting on them or inside them. Not all of the adventure is under the sea. The basics are addictive and the flow into deeper water is similar to its predecessor in the early stages. It can be relaxing to drift along for minutes once you are fully upgraded. Then you can explore the awesome underwater biomes with leisure. Once enough resources have been gathered, vehicles and bases can be built to establish a more permanent home. To dive deeper, a bigger oxygen tank is required-although the presence of oxygen plants makes some dives trivial (pipes that bring air from the surface never find their place). Once you get a scanning tool, you can perform research to unlock food recipes and make tools like a sea glider. Then you're smashing rocks to craft a floating storage chest.
At first this means capturing a fish to turn it into filtered water. Like its predecessor, the basic underwater gameplay involves constant progress and basic survival mechanics. This implementation also means players can keep doing whatever task they were doing in their underwater playground. The alien side fairs better as Robin automatically participates in two-way dialogue at staggered intervals. It could be that bases were intended to be visited in a specific order even though none required special tools. Despite lots of logs, the narrative felt incomplete and out of order. The logs are also placed next to each other in rather small bases, and this means walking in a circle, listening for important clues, before grabbing the next log off the rack. Audio logs are often long and boring, with most attempts at humor failing.
While the narrative provides drive, the story has pacing issues. Together these two story threads will keep you occupied and both have a conclusion. Your sister’s death is not the only point of investigation an alien entity makes contact and encourages you to find artifacts. You might find a map early that shows the rough placement of each base and a compass direction is all you need to find them. In practical terms this means scouring company bases for audio logs and tracing clues to remote locations. Robin believes otherwise, so she has come to the planet (alone) in search of answers. The company Sam worked for claimed she died on the planet from her own negligence.
In Below Zero you play as Robin Ayou and arrive on Planet 4546B after learning about the death of your sister, Sam.
