One straw vs. the whole ocean Walk to the water, drink, press the salt out, upgrade, repeat.
Drink the Ocean

The core loop

  1. 1
    Drink

    Walk to the water's edge and left-click to drink through your straw (hold the DRINK button on phones). Every sip lowers the sea level.

  2. 2
    Press

    When your belly is full, stand under the PRESS to convert the water into salt — the game's currency.

  3. 3
    Spend

    The blue SHOP pad turns salt into upgrades: a bigger belly, extra straws, a mouth vacuum, a pocket whirlpool.

  4. 4
    Pull the plug

    Drain the ocean down to the plug at the bottom, pull it, and a stronger new ocean appears — cola, lemonade, slime or lava.

What's under the water

The further you drain, the stranger the seabed gets.

Shipwreck

The first landmark to surface as the water line drops.

Whale skeleton

A huge set of bones waiting mid-way down.

Sunken city

A whole drowned settlement near the bottom.

Sky Duck

A mysterious visitor that hands out boons — open its gifts with E.
