Buy belly capacity when trips take longer
If a few sips already fill your belly, extra capacity lets you drain more water per trip. This is a good early buy when most of your time goes into walking back to the press.

Open on PlaygamaWhat is Drink the Ocean?
Drink the Ocean is a first-person incremental game by Pinidi Studio. You walk to the shore and sip seawater, then carry it to the press to earn salt for upgrades. The belly meter shows how much water you’re carrying. The Ocean Drunk meter tracks how much you’ve removed as the sea recedes and exposes more of the seabed.

How to play Drink the Ocean
Playgama’s game guide describes three steps to get started.
-
Drink at the shore
Walk to the shore and aim at the water. Left-click to drink on desktop, or use the Drink button if it appears on your phone.
-
Press water into salt
When your belly is full, turn toward the press marker and follow it. Stand under the press to empty your belly and earn salt for the shop.
-
Upgrade and explore
Spend salt at the blue shop pad on belly capacity and better drinking tools. As the sea retreats, follow it to keep drinking and uncover the seabed.
Follow the beginner walkthrough for your first trip to the press.
Belly full! Run to the press. The press marker shows 7 m to go. The Ocean Drunk meter reads 19.85%, the share of the ocean drained so far in this run.
How to drink the ocean faster
Upgrade your tools when filling takes longer
When you spend more time sipping than walking, save salt for a stronger drinking tool. Check the shop for the tools available in your run.
Check the distance before walking
Turn with the mouse until the on-screen arrow points ahead. If the distance to the press or water grows, turn again. This saves time when the shoreline moves.
Compare early upgrade choices based on where you spend the most time.
How do you beat Drink the Ocean?
Playgama’s guide says to drain the ocean until you can reach and pull the plug on the seabed. It lists cola, lemonade, slime, and lava as options for the next ocean.
