About

In About Fishing you play as a lone angler drifting across serene lakes and rivers. The mechanics revolve around casting baits, waiting for subtle tug animations, and reeling in creatures that range from ordinary fish to unnerving oddities. The gameplay loops around the rhythm of casting and retrieving while exploring handcrafted environments filled with floating debris and shadowy depths. Occasional discoveries like rusted keys or glowing fungi hint at a larger mystery beneath the surface. The game’s quiet atmosphere contrasts sharply with its unsettling discoveries. Community feedback shows 82% positive ratings based on 10,000+ Steam reviews. Players note the average session runs about 15 hours with many replaying to find every hidden item. What lingers most are the strange artifacts that defy explanation, like a plastic bag containing a severed toe or a jar of pickled eyeballs. The developer’s decision to leave most mysteries unsolved has sparked ongoing forums debates, making each fishing trip feel like a new expedition into the unknown.
