Play Overview
You start from your new home and explore the land and sea to complete quests and visit neighbouring islands – each with unique opportunities, inhabitants, and secrets. Get back home to sell your catch, and upgrade your boat to dredge deeper for long-buried secrets.
As you progress you catch all manner of valuable fish you store them in your hold making use of the available space with Tetris-like placement. Care is needed as danger is everywhere in the form of sharp rocks, shallow reefs and threats that lurk in the fog at night.
The result is a game that combines a mystery narrative with more-ish fishing and upgrading. Everyone you meet has their own story and each new creature you discover offers unique benefits. It's a dark and lovely combination that draws you in to take ever more questionable risks with each voyage.
