First appearance Downwell (2015)

The Aquifer is the third area, and it is entirely underwater. A breath meter counts down from 100; refill it by breaking the blue pots and clams and catching the air bubbles they release, because at zero you start losing hp. Gems sink slowly here, coral forms the breakable terrain, and the underwater Shop plays its own variant of the shop theme.

The Aquifer is also where Downwell{'}s fourth palette colour first appears — blue, in the default palette, for everything watery.

Enemies

Turtle, Red Jelly, Squid, Mohawkmon and Shooter. The clams that snap along the floor hurt to touch but can be stomped.
