In the wake of global floods that have submerged the world, surviving on the sea has become the new norm in the game *Ocean New Era*. This survival, development, and adventure-themed game places you in the role of a castaway tasked with building a new life from an abandoned raft amidst the vast, water-covered Earth.

Your journey begins with the basics: upgrading water purifiers, expanding your raft, and connecting drifting structures to form a stable base. As you progress, you'll establish resource production lines, embark on thrilling underwater adventures, and uncover remnants of the old world. These efforts are crucial to not just surviving but thriving in this new aquatic era.

Mysterious Crystals from Meteor Showers

The meteor showers that led to the world's flooding brought more than destruction; they introduced extraterrestrial crystals that have become the cornerstone of this new era. These crystals have revolutionized seawater purification, miniature energy technologies, and energy shield technology, providing the tools necessary for humanity to adapt and flourish in a water-dominated world.

Freshwater, the Lifeline

In this ocean-covered world, freshwater is your lifeline. The heart of your new home is the seawater purifier, which, thanks to crystal technology, extracts drinkable water from the sea. However, as you expand your raft, accommodate more people, and train soldiers, the demand for freshwater increases. Unpredictable heat waves add further strain, making the management of this precious resource a constant challenge.

Raft Expansion

Starting from a small, stranded raft, your first task is to gather logs and craft wooden planks to expand your floating home. As you explore, you'll discover and connect with other scattered rafts, each potentially hosting valuable buildings like animal cabins for logging and fishing, processing factories for sawing planks and cooking fish, and even a bar to meet seafaring adventurers. Through these expansions, you'll transform your raft into a well-equipped sanctuary.

Small Animals as Helpers

The floods have displaced not just humans but also various small animals. As you expand your raft, you'll encounter these creatures, which can become invaluable helpers. Otters assist with logging, pelicans with fishing, penguins with resource transportation, beavers with sawing planks, and cats with cooking fish. With their help, you can automate your resource production lines, freeing up time for more critical tasks like home construction and ocean exploration.

Underwater Adventures

While crystal technology offers endless possibilities, the remnants of the old era hold irreplaceable treasures essential for upgrading your structures. Since diving yourself isn't an option, you'll need to recruit seafaring adventurers from the bar to explore the underwater world for you. Beneath the waves lie not only the materials you need but also the ruins of lost cities and dangerous marine creatures, offering a mix of challenges and wonders to uncover.
