01

Getting started with your boat

Step
In short Mastering boat controls early makes everything else in the game easier.

Your boat is your only way to move through the sewer network. Start in areas where fewer enemies are present so you can focus on handling rather than survival. Once you feel confident, push into new tunnels and see what the wider map holds.

  1. Collect resources early stick to quieter areas at first so you can gather without constant pressure from piranha.
  2. Find the manholes escaping means locating the right passage, so keep an eye out for exits as you explore.

Surviving mutant piranha

Warn
In short Running is almost always smarter than fighting when piranha close in.

Mutant piranha appear in groups and are aggressive. The sewer layout works in your favour — narrow, branching channels are harder for enemies to chase you through than open water.

Worth watching out for
Accelerate the moment you spot piranha putting distance between you and them is your best defence.
Turn into narrow side tunnels enemies have a harder time following you through tight, branching waterways.
03

Trading with the Mech-Rat Task Force

Tips
In short The mechanical rats are the link between the resources you collect and the escape route you need.

The Mech-Rat Task Force is scattered across the sewer network. Each mechanical rat will trade resources you bring for items or upgrades, and some of those items are required to unlock the escape route.

Tips worth knowing
  • Explore the full map to find where each mechanical rat is stationed — they are spread across multiple locations.
  • Keep your inventory from filling up completely — a full inventory means you cannot pick up anything new, which stalls your trading chain.
04

Co-op and rescuing the lost

Summary
In short The game rewards teamwork and has specific characters to rescue, so playing with others opens up extra goals.

Dead Sewers tracks four specific people — Bill, Bev, Lily, and Richie — who are being held by a character called CLOWN IT. Rescuing each of them is a distinct objective.

  • Friendship badge earned by playing alongside another person.
  • Bill, Bev, Lily, Richie four separate rescue targets, each held by CLOWN IT somewhere in the sewers.
  • Secret Pipeline a hidden route that can be opened, worth hunting for during exploration.
  • Travel milestone the game tracks distance; 10 km of travel through the sewer earns its own reward.
05

Harder modes and the Octopus Lord

Check
In short PRO mode and New Mode add tougher objectives.

Beyond the standard sewer run, the game includes harder challenge modes. The Bubble-Gum Laboratory must be cleared on PRO mode, and a boss called the Octopus Lord appears in New Mode.

  • In New Mode, the Octopus Lord is the boss to defeat.
  • PRO mode features the Bubble-Gum Laboratory as a stage to complete.

Common questions

FAQ

How do I find the escape route?

The escape route is unlocked through trading with the Mech-Rat Task Force. Collect resources, trade them with mechanical rats for the items you need, and follow the chain of trades until you have what is required to open the exit passage.

How do I rescue Bill, Bev, Lily, and Richie?

Each of the four is being held by CLOWN IT somewhere in the sewer. You need to find and rescue them individually, and each rescue is tracked as a separate objective.

Is there any reason to play with a friend?

Yes — there is a badge specifically for playing co-operatively with another person.
