What you do

A fishing trip with an escape plan

You start with very little, catch and sell fish, buy better equipment, complete island quests, and take down the boss fish blocking the way home.

  1. 01

    Catch. Sell. Upgrade.

    Your catch funds better fishing gear and weapons.

  2. 02

    Finish island quests.

    NPC requests and boss fish open the route to new islands.

  3. 03

    Make the shot count.

    Trick shots can earn extra money when you want to fish with a little more style.

Play your way

Solo is supported. So is a four-person crew.

The official Steam listing supports one to four players online. If a launch-day join fails, treat it as a session problem—not a new group-size limit.
