Hey guys.

I've been trying for years to find a game I played in my childhood, with no luck. It wasn't a big release by any means, but the fact that it has stuck with me makes me want to finally put my seeking to rest.

Here's what I know:

- Released in the first half of the 1990's, likely '91 or '92
- EGA graphics
- Isometric perspective
- You are a deep sea diver going into wreck(s)
- There are enemies that can hurt you / block your path
- I believe you had a time limit with which to grab whatever you needed

In my head, it was called something like Zoom, but that might be a false memory, so don't rely on the title.

Anyway, I'd be ever so grateful if anyone could help me find the game!

Is it X-com: Terror from the deep, the underwater sequel to X-com: UFO Defense?
These are turn-based squad tactics games.

Can't be, XCOM:UD was VGA already, so TFTD certainly also was. Also, the time limits in the XCOM series were introduced only with the Meld stuff in the DLC for the new XCOM. At least I don't recall any such thing from the original series.

Perhaps ScubaVenture?

This is the closest to the game, but not quite there. ):

I believe the player character had one of those old diving suits and not much mobility.

Sea Rogue and Deep Sea Diver (the latter also known as Aquaphobia) are another two EGA diving games released 1992.

Neither is an exact match to the description though.

Treasure Trap, I assume. You'd want the Amiga version for better sound and graphics effects.

A much better fit than my suggestions, even down to the sounds like Zoom memory.

The publisher of the game was "The Electronic Zoo"

I think you've got it.

This is insane, after all these years, there it is!

Thank you so, so much everyone! You're the real MVPs!!
