Kaitei Takara Sagashi is a 1980 arcade game that was developed by K'K Tokki as a prototype and later sold to Namco, where it was completely rewritten.

[edit] Gameplay

A boat lowers the player towards the bottom of the screen. Try to avoid the fish or push left or right to fire a harpoon at them. When at the bottom, if you walk over one of treasure caches, you will be lowered into it. Then you will be raised back to the ship (again, avoid the fish).

[edit] Trivia

The name of this game translates from Japanese as "Underwater Treasure Hunting".
