The Drowning is a 2013 first-person shooter video game developed by Swedish studio Scattered Entertainment and published by DeNA/Mobage for iOS. Version 1.0 of the game soft launched in the Australasia region on April 11, 2013.[citation needed] A more complete version of the game (Version 1.11) was released internationally on August 3.[1] The game is available under the freemium business model. An Android release was released in 2014.[2] The game's main selling points are its uniquely adapted touchscreen-specific control scheme and "console quality" graphics. Although the graphics were generally praised by critics, the game received mixed to negative reviews, with much criticism aimed at the in-app purchase system and repetitive gameplay.
