Parent Verdict

There's almost no violence — you mostly flee rather than fight — but the deep-ocean dread is real: vast dark water, distant roars, and leviathan ambushes scare plenty of adults. Kids fascinated by the ocean tend to love it anyway. Single-player, no chat. Around 10 for kids who don't mind a racing heart.
