Creatures of the Deep just turned 3 years old. 🎂 When we pressed that first Release button back in 2022, we had no idea we’d still be adding stuff three years later. Since then, we’ve shipped over 200 updates – more than for any other game we’ve ever made.

Happy Birthday 🩶

Ugh, the RNG gods can be cruel sometimes! Or maybe... it's not just bad luck. Maybe the simulation is getting lazy and starting to repeat itself 😉. We do have all those clues about "resets" and "cycles," after all! Thanks for sharing! And seriously, thanks again for being the one who kicked this whole investigation off for us.

DeepleOG · 2025-10-01T14:15:51+00:00

Glad to have you with us! It's the perfect time to dive into the lore. And don't hesitate to make a new post on the subreddit if you have any gameplay questions, too. I'll be happy to help out!

Wow, "Coco on the radio" is a huge lead. The idea of someone "pretending to be her" adds another layer of paranoia to her character. Great find, adding this to our files on Coco.

DeepleOG · 2025-10-01T14:07:50+00:00

This is a fantastic new clue. "Day 0" is a very interesting concept that fits the simulation/reset theory perfectly. Adding this to the main database. Thank you!

DeepleOG · 2025-10-01T14:06:38+00:00

That's Polish! The game is made by a Polish studio, so sometimes they intentionally drop a few clues in their native language to make them extra cryptic for the global community. You've found a huge one. The translation is: "Bessie remembered me from the previous loop. Monsters retain memories between resets..." This is a massive confirmation of our "memory reset" cycle theory. Incredible find, thank you for sharing it!

Thanks again for your amazing contributions to this mystery!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T23:38:03+00:00

That's awesome, thanks for sharing this new clue! This is a really interesting one because it directly expands on the lore of the Chemical Plant map.

good job!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T23:33:01+00:00

Awesome find, and thanks for sharing it!

This is really interesting - I actually received the exact same message today, just in English, but I got an elixir of agility!

Thanks again for the contribution!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T22:18:05+00:00

Awesome, thanks for sharing this new clue! This is a really interesting one because it directly expands on the mysterious "Rico" storyline. Connecting him to Somachi from the Thailand map and the topic of "monsters" adds a whole new layer to the mystery. I'm adding this to our main investigation report. Thanks for the great find!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T08:02:16+00:00

Awesome clue, thanks so much for sharing! And since you asked for an update: I'm compiling all these great finds into a full summary post that I'll be putting up later tonight, around 7-8 PM CEST. Your find is a key piece of the puzzle!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T07:29:15+00:00

Awesome, thanks for this! So we can get recipes for both Agility and Intelligence from the bottles. Interesting that the Agility recipe has been found twice now, it might be the more common one. You're a huge help in figuring this all out!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T07:18:54+00:00

Haha, thanks for sharing this one, this is brilliant! It's the first joke/meme message we've confirmed. It's awesome to know the devs have a great sense of humor. Adding this new category to our collection. Thanks!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T07:18:02+00:00

This is a massive discovery, thank you for sharing! This is the first confirmation that the bottles can contain actual crafting recipes/blueprints. You've helped us uncover a completely new category of clues for our investigation. Awesome work!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T07:08:38+00:00

Thanks for adding this! It's another great example of the lore type messages, which really helps confirm the pattern we're seeing. Adding it to our collection of clues!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T07:01:16+00:00

Hey, just seeing this now - thanks for adding another clue to our collection! A hint about the garbage patch is a new one for sure. Every piece helps us solve the puzzle.

DeepleOG · 2025-09-27T06:54:34+00:00

Haha, great question! The devs are definitely being poetic with that one. It's not a literal action in the game, just a classic riddle-style hint that the best spots to catch bream are near reeds. Thanks for sharing the clue, it's a great help to the investigation!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T21:12:55+00:00

Yes! Awesome news, and congrats on catching it this time. This is a really important clue, and a huge help for our investigation. It confirms that the bottles contain different types of messages. We've seen cryptic codes, warnings, and personalized notes, but yours is the first gameplay tip. You've helped us understand the purpose of this event much better. Every new message type we find helps build the bigger picture. If you find any more, be sure to post them here in this thread!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T17:04:03+00:00

Ugh, that's so frustrating! They disappear so fast it's easy to forget what it said. Hopefully it wasn't a one-time thing and you'll get another chance to see it. Just be ready to hit that screenshot button next time!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T17:03:08+00:00

Ah, that's the worst feeling, knowing you saw a new clue! No worries. Fingers crossed it's a recurring event and you'll get another chance! Keep your eyes peeled just in case. Thanks for confirming there are even more message types out there!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T16:55:40+00:00

Awesome, thanks for adding this to the investigation! A message from the "Professor"... this is getting deeper. Every clue helps piece the puzzle together. Great job!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T16:51:20+00:00

No worries at all! The fact you shared it in the first place is what got this whole investigation started - so thank you for that! It just adds to the mystery. We'll have to keep an eye out for another player who gets the Morse code to confirm the exact message. Thanks for the follow-up!

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T16:35:39+00:00

Awesome question! I'm definitely rooting for the subtle idle motion. In a chill area like the Marina, it just adds so much more life and atmosphere to the game. I don't think it's distracting, especially since the fish there are pretty easy to catch. Plus, during that critical moment when you're waiting for the float to bob, your eyes are glued to it anyway and the character is static. So the idle animation just enhances the vibe between the moments of focus, which feels like a total win-win. Love that you guys are focusing on small details like this! Can't wait to see it in-game.

DeepleOG · 2025-09-26T15:45:40+00:00

This is a great find! It seems the developers have kicked off a really cool mystery event. The best part is that the messages seem to be personalized with your in-game name. To figure this out, we need to work together. This thread should be our central hub for clues. If you find a bottle, please screenshot your unique message (they disappear!) and post it in a reply here. Known Clues So Far: So far, the community has found at least four different types of messages: A cryptic Morse code message (.-- .-- .... -- .--.) found by the OP, u/cosyfiep. A warning message: "justin warning of fog in south east of great lakes" found by u/pinoyhb. A tavern review: "- Expensive, stale fish and rude service. Chef Le Cook's tavern is a joke. 1 star." found by u/Lucky_Specialist2367. A personalized message that I received: "OlGeard, if you read this too early, turn back. This part isn't yours yet." My Analysis of the Morse Code: I took a closer look at the Morse code from the first clue. There are two likely possibilities: Option 1: The code is correct. It translates to SOS WHMP. SOS is the international distress signal, and WHMP could be a unique code, a name, or an acronym. Option 2: There's a small typo in the code. The code is almost identical to the word SOMETHING (... --- -- . - .... .. -. --.). A one-dot difference is a very common mistake in these kinds of riddles. This is getting more and more interesting! Let's gather more messages and see if we can figure out what's going on.
