About

Catching fish is only the beginning.
Cast your line, hunt for the perfect catch, scale it with care, serve it to hungry customers, and turn your hard-earned cash into better gear. Then go deeper. Catch stranger fish. Make more money. Upgrade again.
You know, just one more run.
Each improvement pushes you further into the depths… and further from whatever counts as normal.

Explore four distinct fishing spots inspired by real places – from Loch Ness to Outer Banks, Point Nemo, and beyond.
Each location comes with its own:
atmosphere and environment
gear
fish species
hidden paths and secrets
puzzles, treasures, and strange things waiting below
The deeper you go, the less this feels like a simple fishing job.

Your customers are not human. Some are cute. Some are mythical. Some are exactly the kind of creatures you wouldn’t expect to order dinner from a tiny robot on a boat.
Serve wild animals like otters, axolotls, and herons, alongside beings inspired by myth and folklore, including legends such as Nessie and Kelpie. Each customer has their own personality, appetite, and favorite fish.
Learn who likes what, deliver the right catch, and you might earn a very generous tip. Serve badly, and… well, they’ll have opinions.

There’s more than fish hiding underwater, and definitely more lore than anyone reasonably expects from a game about fishing.
Search the depths for:
hidden treasures and collectible artifacts
messages in bottles
secret passages
environmental puzzles and levers
Every scrap of old notes and logs brings you a little closer to understanding why this tiny robot is busy fishing in the first place.

Progress isn’t just about bigger numbers (although bigger numbers are very nice).
Upgrade your fishing gear, unlock better tools, customize your boat, and dress up your tiny robot fishmonger before sending them back into increasingly strange waters.
Improve your rods, hooks, bags and scaling tools
Unlock new boats and cosmetics
Scale tiny fish with increasingly ridiculous tools
Look good while feeding ancient beings from the deep
Because if you’re going to prepare fish for strange creatures, you might as well do it in style.

I beefed with a blue worm for 2 hours, then on the next boss I didn't notice it was a boss. Good game, I like fishes and beefing with customers I DEFINETLY shouldn't be beefing with.
ta bueno
Fun,But gets boring quick 7/10
Отличная игра, когда вечером нет планов. Сам того не заметил, просидел 10 часов — и ни разу не пожалел. Всё продумано до мелочей, каждая механика работает, скучать просто некогда. Рекомендую.
I like every fish in this game other then Unamed Fish
fun fishing game
The gameplay is fun, graphics are cute, the pacing and upgrade systems are good, there is a short cohesive story, and there are many QoL features to make 100%ing the game comfortable. I especially like that each customer gives unique hints to discover their favorite fish, without needing to use the special bait. The only bug I've run into, is sometimes the game opens random menus when you try to enter the scaling room. The final fish in the game is frustratingly bad design, when compared to everything else. I almost considered giving this a negative review just for having no reference to where the final fish is on the level or how to attract it. It turns out it's a major RNG spawn within a large area towards the bottom of the final map, requiring exiting and reentering the level repeatedly until it spawns, which no other fish throughout the entire game had such unreasonable spawn requirements. Each stage even has a boss fish which respawns every single time you cast your line, so it was odd to have one fish that doesn't follow the same rules that we were taught throughout the game. If they hinted at the fish's rarity and location in one of the "Message in a bottle" or if there was a special bait it was attracted to with a note on the bait, that would help, but I couldn't find any reference to it and had to look it up outside the game to avoid wasting potentially hours searching for a single fish. I believe this game is fairly priced. If they fix the final fish and the UI bug, I'd have no negative criticism to offer.
