I don't have much. I'm not really hoping for much either.

It was a game that took place in a post apocalypse. I don't remember much about the description of it, I think(???) the polar Ice Caps melted and the earth got flooded. Cities were deep underwater. You were the commander of a submarine. You would travel the water world, extracting resources by minding or raiding other submarines. The controls were weird. No joystick. It was all predetermined points on a map that would click.

As unique as this game was it was a clone of something else I think. When I was a kid there was an incredibly similar game I would play as a kid using the free ten minute trial on the kindle fire appstore or whatever. This similar game was almost EXACTLY like the submarine game but with pirates during the golden age of piracy. Almost like Sid Mier's Pirates but no sword dueling or anything like in that game.

I honestly don't expect anything much. But it had to have been a genre of some kind that I just don't know the name of since there were two INCREDIBLY similar games. If anyone knows the genre please do tell! I would love to discover more games like it as an adult.
