Introduce
Kaitei Takara Sagashi (海底宝探し), meaning "Undersea Treasure Hunt", is a classic arcade game focusing on exploration and collection. Players control a submarine or a diver to search for hidden treasures at the bottom of the sea. The gameplay is simple yet addictive.
Each level is usually a different underwater area, ranging from colorful coral reefs to dark and mysterious caves. Players must skillfully maneuver their vehicle to avoid obstacles such as reefs, dangerous sea creatures (sharks, giant squids, etc.), and hidden traps.
Treasures are hidden in various locations, requiring players to thoroughly explore every corner of the level. Some treasures are easy to find, while others are better hidden, requiring keen eyes and patience. Collecting the required number of treasures in each level will allow players to progress to the next, more difficult level.
The game usually has a scoring system based on the number of treasures collected, the time to complete the level, and the level's difficulty. Many versions of Kaitei Takara Sagashi also include additional elements such as time limits, limited lives, and items to assist players in their treasure hunt. The combination of exploration, collection, and light puzzle-solving creates the unique appeal of this game.
