Play James Pond – Underwater Agent Online
You're a suave fish spy sneaking through maze-like underwater bases, defusing bombs and rescuing hostages while fighting the weird physics of being, well, a fish. The timer's always ticking, and that last key is never where you think it is.
James Pond: Underwater Agent came out on the Sega Genesis in 1990, developed by Millennium Interactive. It was one of those early platformers that tried to do something a little different with the formula, trading traditional running and jumping for a fully aquatic setting. It had a certain charm that fit right in with the era's experimental side.
You control James Pond, a secret agent fish, navigating through a series of single-screen aquatic rooms. Your main goal is to find keys to unlock doors, defuse bombs, and rescue other fish held captive. The signature mechanics involve stretching your body vertically to reach high-up switches or items, and carefully managing your air supply to avoid drowning. The pacing is tense, largely due to a strict time limit on each stage that forces you to move with purpose, though the controls can feel a bit slippery and imprecise. It feels like a race against the clock in a world that never quite lets you get comfortable.
