* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Of course. You might dismiss the marine life as defending their territories, until you manage to skewer an underwater enemy with the harpoon - while underwater predators like sharks in real life would more likely attack another injured animal because of the blood, here the sharks promptly ''ignores'' the clouding blood and comes straight for you.

--> The Ocean is full of secrets and mysteries, and diving into it's depths is like opening a Pandora's box of horrors.
It's like ''VideoGame/TheOceanHunter'' remade as an {{FPS}}. So now you ''can'' control your character.
''Death in the Water'' is an underwater-themed AdventureGame made by Lighthouse Games Studio.
Blackwater Bay has always been shrouded in mystery and fear, where its waters are infested with hostile marine life, dissappearing ships and planes a regular occurrence, and assorted rumors from locals about ghostly sirens to humungous krakens haunting beneath the surface. Only the best bounty hunters dare to venture and explore it's depths, and you're one of them.
The sequel, ''Death in the Water 2'', plays out pretty much like an ExpansionPack of the original game, with new enemies and weapons included.
----
!! ''Death in the Water'' (1 and 2) contain examples of:
* AlmostOutOfOxygen: You can suffer from oxygen shortage in both games, given that you're diving around deep ocean trenches. Find a spare oxygen tank or you'll suffer a NonStandardGameOver.
* AntagonistTitle: '''''Death''''' ''in the Water''. Turns out "Death" is an ancient, powerful giant octopus and FinalBoss of the game.
* BlackoutBasement: The deepest, darkest parts of the trenches have you navigating your way through with your suit's flashlight being your only source of illumination. Sharks and sea-snakes tends to ambush you from the dark in these areas.
* BlindedByTheLight: The Flash Bang, an underwater flash grenade that can disorientate hostile marine life. Given your enemies comes from deep, dark ocean trenches and never saw light their whole lives, it works like a charm.
* BloodIsSquickerInWater: Injuring an enemy underwater will result in a small cloud of red spreading out.
* BountyHunter: You play as one volunteering to investigate Blackwater Bay, hoping to find underwater treasures during your hunt. It doesn't disappoint.
* CameraAbuse: Getting chomped upon by hostile aquatic monsters will have your screen splattered with blood (presumably yours).
* DerelictGraveyard: You eventually found out what happened to the various missing ships (including a plane!) when you reach Blackwater Bay's deepest trenches and comes across a seemingly endless field of destroyed ships. You even explore a monster-infested ShipShapeShipwreck in one area.
* GiantSquid: Huge, black octopuses appears as a recurring enemy, including the FinalBoss, ''Death'' itself.
* TheGoomba: Lionfishes. Painfully slow enemies whose spines deal ScratchDamage thanks to your thick wetsuit, and they die in a single harpoon shot. The first mission have you hunting them as a ''training'' mission before you move on to sharks.
* GunsFiringUnderwaterL Justified with the kraken (an underwater ''shotgun'') - it's been specifically modified to fire charged pumps in the deepest depths.
* HarpoonGun: Being a diver, your default weapon is your trusty harpoon launcher. You can also equip a harpoon ''minigun'' before fighting ''Death'' in the second game.
* ImpossibleItemDrop: Sharks, sea snakes, octopi, lionfishes and the like will constantly drop gold coins after they're killed.
* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: The "siren" enemies are the evil variety of mermaids, depicted as fish-human hybrids who attacks you with spears.
* SeaMonster: You ''think''? Death the octopus itself is notably larger than submarines.
* SlipperyAsAnEel: Alongside sharks and sea snakes, ferocious moray eels - far larger than any real-life species - are another enemy.
* ThreateningShark: Expectedly for an underwater-themed action game, sharks are the most common enemies you encounter in every stage. They come in several varieties as well, from the common, stereotypically-ferocious Great Whites to Mako and Tiger Sharks.
* UnderwaterRuins: The second half of ''2'' have you exploring these as you get closer to Death.
