Deriva is a single-player narrative adventure set in a world flooded after endless rain. You play as Zale, a young boy who inherits his grandfather’s submarine and sets off with his best friend Kiara on a journey across what’s left of civilization.

Explore a vast and melancholic ocean as you navigate between floating islands, visit stilted towns, and dive through forgotten ruins. The gameplay blends fishing, trading, resource management, and freeform exploration in a living world full of small, meaningful moments.

Along the way, you’ll meet people who have learned to survive among the waves, each with their own stories, ports, and ways of holding on. The story unfolds through the world and your relationships, revealing fragments of the past as you improve your vessel and dive deeper.

Deriva combines adventure, visual novel elements, and exploration with a relaxed pace, handcrafted art direction, and a reflective soundtrack. It’s ideal for players looking for a calm, emotional experience focused on atmosphere and personal discovery.
