As your answers sink you deeper, the screen scrolls past genuine milestones — here is every marker on the ruler, top to bottom, exactly as the game presents them.\n\nRelated: [How scoring works](\u002Fwiki\u002Fscoring-explained) · [How to play](\u002Fwiki\u002Fhow-to-play)\n\n## The sunlight zone (0–200m)\n\nThis is where every dive starts. The ruler's first markers: \"light begins to fade\" and \"most sunlight stops here\" — then the deepest scuba dive ever, **332m**. Sperm whales hunt below this line, and emperor penguins dive this deep.\n\n## The twilight markers (200–1,000m)\n\nPressure climbs to **67× the surface**. The siphonophore drift zone passes by — then **THE MIDNIGHT ZONE** begins: anglerfish territory, where sperm whales duel giant squid, colossal squid with football-sized eyes, and water that is 2°C and utterly black.\n\n## The abyssal zone (1,000–4,000m)\n\n**THE ABYSSAL ZONE**: the Titanic rests here at **3,800m**, cusk eels patrol the plain, and it is deeper than most submarines survive. The abyssal plain stretches out beneath your dive.\n\n## The hadal zone (the trench)\n\n**THE HADAL ZONE** — \"named for Hades. fitting.\" — ends at the trench floor, where the ruler's final line sits: \"a perfect dive ends here\". Since [depth is score ×10](\u002Fwiki\u002Fscoring-explained), a perfect seven One-in-a-Krillion answers (700 points) lands you at 7,000m, on the floor.\n\n## Why the map matters for your score\n\nThe zones are more than scenery: they give you a feel for [how deep each tier sinks you](\u002Fwiki\u002Fscoring-explained) — a Deep Cut (+85, 850m) takes you past the scuba record into sperm-whale territory, while stacking Rare answers (60 each) marches you through the Midnight Zone toward the [bearing](\u002Fwiki\u002Fscoring-explained) bands.
