If you love the sea and dream of becoming the captain of an underwater cruiser or a missile carrier, then you probably love these games. We present to your attention short reviews of games about submarines. Check out the best games of this genre, maybe you will find a game to your liking, which you will enjoy playing in your free time.

Torpedo attack

I'll start with the most famous series of submarine games- Silent Hunter. The first part of this World War II submarine simulator was released in 1996 by Aeon Electronic Entertainment. Few people knew about this game, at that time it was not widely recognized. The second part of the game is being developed by Ultimation. Inc, and the rights to publish the game were transferred to Ubisoft Entertainment. The game became very complex, with an attempt to simulate all aspects of submarine control, including damage control. The whole point of the game comes down to the fact that you are the captain of a German submarine and receive orders that you need to follow. The purpose of these missions is specific actions with a historical background. For example, the penetration of the U-47 submarine into Scapa Flow, passing through strait of Gibraltar or Operation Drumbeat. The most interesting thing is that the consultant of this game was the real captain of the Nazi submarine Erich Topp. A huge disadvantage in terms of playability is the ability to abort the mission and return to the base at any time, even when you are being bombed by destroyers and the boat is almost sunk.

In 2005, the third part of the simulator was released. Silent Hunter III. The game becomes even more complicated, in addition to the complex management of the boat, the player is given the opportunity to manage the team, its rest and watch. Now the captain (player) selects specialists for himself, taking into account their business qualities and ranks, and then raises them in rank and even rewards them. The player's career depends on how many ships and what tonnage are sunk. The game starts in 1939 and ends in 1945. You have to change not only the equipment on the boats and the boats themselves, but even the naval bases.

In the third part of the game, graphics and scale are significantly improved outside world. Now you can see the interior of the boat and submariners at their combat posts. As in the previous parts, the player has the opportunity to be in the shoes of the captain of an underwater vessel, but unlike those parts, the game is free and arbitrary. The captain receives an order to be in a certain square of the Atlantic and along the way they transmit information about convoys that can be caught up and intercepted. Do it or not, attack the convoy or miss it, it's up to you.

The fourth part comes out in 2007-2008 Silent Hunter IV and an update to this part. The game became more and more complicated and became more colorful. Now fighting are transferred to the Pacific theater, where the military Maritime Forces USA and Japan.

In 2010, the fifth part of this series was released, in which the action returned to the Atlantic. As in the third and fourth parts, you make a career as a submarine captain. The game has become even more demanding on hardware, starting the game or moving from a briefing to a mission takes a very long time, but the beauty of the seascapes is impressive.

All games in this series are designed for big lovers and experts in the submarine fleet. If you do not know anything about acoustics or navigation, then it is almost impossible to play, and even more so to complete the game. You have to read and delve into many pages of the manual. However, the game has simplified, almost arcade-like, game modes. In this case, a complex simulator turns into a slot machine. For example, if you can turn on the external camera when the boat is at a depth of 50 meters, it makes it ridiculous to use acoustics. You can safely turn on the free camera ( free review) and see what is being done on the surface with your own eyes. Shooting torpedoes, in a simplified mode, is very stylized. The player rotates the periscope and selects surface target, then simply launches a torpedo, and waits for it to overtake it. The choice of difficulty level even affects the speed of loading torpedoes, and the speed of flooding of already wrecked ships, not all ships sink from a single hit. The game has many pros and cons, but despite this the game is a leader in this genre. Game lovers will love it challenging games and real simulators.

Now consider the following game about submarines. "Under the St. Andrew's Flag - 1914: Shells of Fury" came out in 2007. This is the first and last game h2f Informationssysteme. As the name suggests, we are talking about submarines of the First World War. In my opinion, the project turned out to be a failure, poor graphics, handling and playability. It is very difficult to understand what is happening in the game, the engine is very bad. The only window in which you can figure it out is the navigation chart, but there are many disadvantages here too. Everything is indicated approximately and conditionally, the boat can sail on coastline or run aground far from shore.

The game features several boats of that time, including the Crab minelayer. You have to complete missions to lay mines, patrol and sink enemy ships and vessels. The game may appeal to fans of the history of the first combat boats, the game has a small 3D guide.

The following review is dedicated to the game "Enigma. Secret fairway". This arcade simulator submarine in which you need to shoot, shoot and shoot again. Average graphics, primitive controls and a stupid selection of tasks and missions puts this game on a par with the previous one. There are no parallels with a real boat here. The presence of a radar that shows the situation at any distance and in any position of the boat makes it an indispensable element of the game. All other devices are gone.

Enigma. Secret fairway

Enemy attacks come in waves. After aviation comes ships, then boats, then repeats. There are many missions, different plots, but the meaning is the same: drown everyone. This game will appeal to fans of naval battles who do not want to perform complex maneuvers and delve into complex controls.

The game is a simulator of modern submarines different countries. You choose a submarine and a mission on it. The game is complex and not entirely clear. The main game window is the map. There is no direct control of the boat, like a real nuclear submarine commander, you give orders almost by voice - choosing the desired command from the drop-down menus. You control speed, heading, depth, acoustic mode, target identification and transmission of target indications and other aspects.

The missions in the game are very different and take place in a modern setting. For example, you need to get unnoticed to the Kamchatka Peninsula, land a sabotage group there and retreat to the specified square. In another mission, you need to sink a missile frigate, which is captured by terrorists and has on board nuclear warheads. Graphics are very poor. The periscope generally loses its meaning, nothing is visible in it at all. In fact, you will play on the map, processing the information received and not having a beautiful visual picture. The game will appeal to fans of complex information simulations.

is a free 2D mini game that launches very quickly and runs in windowed mode. You can play this game at any time, even in the office, it instantly turns up from the screen and does not slow down the system at all. This game can be freely downloaded from our website.

You control a small class submarine. The task is to make a military campaign and sink as many enemy ships and submarines as possible. You have to break through minefields, avoid depth charges and torpedo attacks, charge batteries and repair damage. According to the results of the entire military campaign, the best players will get into online spreadsheet records. The game is very easy to manage and master and will appeal to fans of mini games. Have fun!

Write if you know other submarine games. Thank you!

Of course, everyone who grew up in Soviet time or, in extreme cases, in the early nineties, he perfectly remembers the children's hit - the slot machine - "Spearfishing". It was such a periscope that needed to aim at enemy ships. Every kid in the Soviet Union dreamed of trying on a commander's uniform, so this machine gun was probably popular then.

But what now? Hasn't the modern powerful game-building industry bothered to create a submarine simulator? And here, it turns out, everything is not so simple. Oh times, oh manners! There were certainly attempts, but as it turned out, creating an interesting and dynamic submarine simulator is an almost impossible task. Judge for yourself - what is the main thing in games? Fan, dynamism, speed of deployment of the situation. And what can be dynamic in the activity of a submarine? Her task is to get close to the target for a long time, and then strike and hide for a long time, fleeing from persecution. It's boring guys.

Therefore, it turns out that those who love space and wind, high waves and salt spray, remain deprived. But still, several interesting and even, one might say, specific projects in this genre were released. Among them, Silent Hunter is one of the most interesting and reliable. Let's take a closer look at the younger part.

Silent Hunter 5: Battle of the Atlantic

Submarine simulator SH 5 is an interesting attempt by the glorious company Ubisoft to bring this particular genre to the masses. The concept of the fifth part was originally conceived with an emphasis on arcade. Yes, of course, the whole serious component of the series remained, but a lot of purely fun things were added. For example, you can now move around the submarine using the first-person camera. In addition to purely combat gadgets, now you can just talk about life with the crew members. Naturally, in between fights. By the way, this gives you a great opportunity to view a perfectly recreated submarine from the Second World War. Oh, but once the kids could not even dream of such a thing.

The first thing to know is that playing a submarine simulator is a complex thing: you need to think and be able to calculate a lot of things (mathematical). In SH 5, arcades have added just enough to attract new players, and in all other respects the game is more like a training simulator than a game.

The cons of this submarine simulator is the sea. Here is the need as a real captain, and the calculation of the type of vessel to decide on its attack. Yes, yes, forget about the red enemy / friend marker: now, having seen the ship, open the guide and start identifying the ship by its silhouette. And God forbid you sink yours.

In 2013, the series went online. Thus, the developers tried to develop a specific niche. However, the online version turned out to be so simple that regular players simply left the project. The concept has been changed. Who knows what the future holds for us? Maybe such a simulator of a nuclear submarine, with which you will have to close yourself in your room for six months - until the next ascent?

Note: the main list includes submarine games released on PC after the 2000s. All other projects related to submarines (for other platforms, older ones, etc.) are listed after the main material.

10 Deep Fighter (2000)

A fun arcade sim from Ubisoft that lets players get into a mini-submarine and set off to explore the vast depths of the ocean. Gathering resources, fighting underwater predators and pirates, completing various quests - the Deep Fighter gameplay includes a huge number of exciting activities.

9 Sub Command (2001)

Quite a complex submarine simulator, which brought the fashion for realistic and hardcore games in this direction. Several exciting story campaigns and as many as three submarines to choose from, equipped with all the necessary instruments and weapons, will allow players to experience all the delights and hardships of the life of a submariner.

8 Dangerous Waters (2005)

Naval battle simulator, in which great attention is paid to nuclear submarines. As in the case of Sub Command, it will be extremely difficult for newcomers to the genre who are completely unfamiliar with acoustics, navigation and other intricacies of the submarine fleet to get used to Dangerous Waters. Since here it will be necessary not only to control individual submarines and other units of marine and air military equipment, taking into account the real parameters and features of control, but also often deal with global strategic planning actions of his fleet.

7 Enigma: Rising Tide (2003)

A simulator with a simple physical model and simple controls, which will allow even inexperienced sailors to feel the taste of naval battles. At the same time, in Enigma: Rising Tide, the marine military equipment. In addition to nuclear and non-nuclear submarines, destroyers, cruisers, battleships, corvettes and other types of ships are represented here. Differs in variety and story campaign, bringing together more than 70 memorable missions.

Where to buy: The game could not be found on official digital services.

6. 1914: Shells of Fury (2007)

4. AquaNox Series

A series that appeared in the 90s and still remains the best among arcade submarine simulators. The action takes place in the distant future, where governments and large corporations built huge underwater stations to extract valuable resources, and then completely made life on the Earth's surface impossible due to total destruction and radiation contamination. The player takes on the role of a mercenary who completes missions for the numerous factions featured in the game.

3. Silent Hunter Series

A series for those who are not afraid of difficulties, but on the contrary, see additional opportunities in them. In addition to managing the submarine, the player, as the commander of the submarine, also takes care of all the worries about his crew. Also, Silent Hunter games, especially the last parts of it, are distinguished by realistic graphics, detailed models of ships and submarines, an abundance of sound and visual effects. In general, this is one of best episodes among realistic submarine simulators, for which there is also a decent amount of official and fan-made add-ons. The latter can be downloaded absolutely free.

2. Subnautica (2018)

Subnautica is a unique game that can fully convey the atmosphere of life in the unexplored depths of the ocean, even if it is located on an alien planet. In terms of gameplay, Subnautica is a first-person open world survival game, the original concept of which makes the presence and use of all kinds of futuristic submarines a must. Spectacular, unusual, exciting and atmospheric - all these are well-deserved epithets for Subnautica.

1 Cold Waters (2017)

The title of the best submarine simulator, in our opinion, deserves the game Cold Waters, released on PC in 2017 and dedicated to modern naval battles (after 1968). She was able to capture and fully convey the concept of the legendary Dangerous Waters (we wrote about it above), supplementing the similar gameplay in the form of a real-time action game with many new original finds. For example, the game has a dynamically changing, absolutely unpredictable environment. This applies both to the state of water and weather (waves, temperature, precipitation, visibility, and so on), and the possibility of meeting with the enemy (number of ships, their classes, tasks, and so on). Moreover, the element of chance is typical for both story campaigns and individual missions present in Cold Waters, the number of which is constantly increasing due to the activity of modders.

AI is also based on a unique algorithm based on a deep analysis of tactics sea ​​battle with the participation of vessels of various classes. Correspond to reality and models of ships, their armament, equipment and behavior on and under water. Finally, the game has an epic and tense atmosphere dedicated to the naval confrontation between the major powers of the second half of the 20th century.
