Scuba Kidz

Scuba Kidz is a video game in the action genre and published by Silverbird Software Ltd. originally released in 1988. It is currently playable on Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC.

Players assume the role of a dive pilot, and it is up to them to navigate a series of underwater caves in search of their kidnapped friends. While exploring these caves, their air supply runs low, so they must rise to the surface to refuel for air. Finding an air tank allows players to swim underwater for longer. If players have no air left, the game is over.

Useful objects can be found scattered around the seabed. These items include keys, which are used to unlock passages; bubble power, which allows players to trap creatures in bursting bubbles; extra speed; and the monster suit, which scares creatures away. Some passages are blocked by walls, and players must use their bubble power to destroy the wall.

Between caves, players have to destroy a shark that makes its way across the screen. If players make contact with the shark, their air supply decreases. When the shark is destroyed, players move on to the next cave. Subsequent ones have a less open surface, more complicated passages and faster creatures.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
