About Wave 43
Wave 43 is a wave-survival game set in the ocean depths. You play as a predator whose presence automatically damages nearby enemies. Catch and devour fish to strengthen your abilities, build combinations of upgrades and survive increasingly dangerous waves until you defeat Wave 43.
Catch fish and evolve
Each fish you catch improves your abilities. Upgrades can increase your damage, attack speed, capture zone, critical-hit power or oxygen, or let you unleash electric shocks and freeze enemies. Catching multiple fish of the same species triggers Evolution, advancing that species through Bronze, Silver and Gold tiers. At each tier, choose one of three random cards to enhance your attributes, combine upgrades and adapt your build as the waves grow more aggressive.
Face the growing threat
Huge bosses appear as you progress, and defeating them requires a well-crafted build and smart positioning. Over time, the ocean fills with enemies, so your capture range and evolutions need to keep pace. Ultra-rare Legendary Fish also appear in the depths; catching one grants a devastating power for a limited time, which can clear the screen and help you survive when the tide turns against you.
Race to Wave 43
Your goal is to defeat Wave 43. Your world leaderboard score is based on how quickly you progress from Wave 1 to the end of Wave 43.
