The Deep Ice

What it is

A deeper progression game built around dives, stamina, loot, gear, rarity, crafting and upgrading, and Prestige.

Objective

Go on dives, collect loot and gear, and build up your character over time.

How to play

  • Choose a dive type: Quick, Deep or Abyssal.
  • Dives use stamina.
  • Collect loot and gear. Gear has attributes: Luck, Fortitude and Insight.
  • Rarity ranges from Common up to Relic.
  • Where enabled, you can craft, upgrade, reroll and repair gear.

Stamina

Stamina refills over time. The current design target is 1 stamina every 12 minutes, up to a maximum of 10. Exact regeneration rate and cap: TBC. The in-game display is authoritative.

Prestige

Prestige is a long-term choice. You give up some progress in exchange for a permanent bonus. Details are shown in-game.

Controls

Follow the in-game instructions.

Beginner tips

  • Start with Quick dives while you learn.
  • Think carefully before you Prestige. It's a trade-off.

Common questions

Am I guaranteed a rare drop eventually? Drops are never guaranteed. Why is my stamina different from this page? Stamina settings can change. The in-game display is authoritative.

Troubleshooting / what to send Support

If something goes wrong (for example, your score doesn't appear, a run ended unexpectedly, or the game froze), first try refreshing or restarting the game and checking your connection. Scores can take a short time to show, and all gameplay may be subject to integrity review.

If it still isn't right, open a ticket at help.honest.money and include:

  • Your player name / gamer handle
  • The game name
  • The date and approximate time
  • Your device and operating system
  • Browser or app you were using
  • What you expected to happen vs what actually happened
  • The score or result involved
  • A screenshot or screen recording, if possible
  • Whether you can make it happen again
