Deep Sea Quest: Ocean Zones Adventure

Dive deeper than ever before.

This is not an ordinary ocean kit.

Deep Sea Quest combines real specimen excavation, an interactive underwater adventure, an escape room, a scavenger hunt, a treasure hunt, collectible characters, trading cards, a map, and an online educational experience—all inside the mysterious zones of the ocean.

Young explorers begin at the sunlit surface and descend toward the darkest depths of the sea. But an underwater research mission has gone wrong. The Grumblins have damaged the exploration route and hidden the Gemlets throughout the ocean zones.

To rescue them, kids must follow the dive map, choose their path, solve underwater challenges, investigate ocean clues, capture Grumblins, and uncover real rocks, minerals, and fossils inside their Mystery Dig.

Every mission takes them deeper as they work toward defeating the final Grumblie and rescuing all ten missing Gemlets.

Along the way, kids discover how sunlight, temperature, pressure, depth, and living conditions change throughout the ocean.

They are not simply learning about the sea.

They are diving into it.

The Mystery Dig adds a real discovery experience to the deep-sea mission.

Capture the Grumblins. Rescue the Gemlets.

The Grumblins have hidden the Gemlets throughout the ocean zones.
