Omikron: The Nomad Soul Hints

Swimming Tips

  • There are several places where it is necessary to swim.  Since you can die if you don't surface quickly, try to master the keys.  The main keyboard keys are shown on the back of the game manual, but their explanation can be confusing.  I experimented and found these to work for me.

    CTRL+Up Arrow = Dive
    Up arrow = Swim DOWN
    CTRL+Down arrow = Surface
    Down arrow = Swim UP
    CTRL+Up Arrow = Surface
    SHIFT+Arrow Key = Breast Stroke (Swim faster on surface)

    If you have no exits from the surface, swim down and try to find a deeper tunnel and swim there.
