What is Fishing The Abyss?

A single-player desktop fishing game set in a pond that grows more unsettling as you descend. A small robot fishes automatically while you can click to help, collect creatures, and spend points from catches on upgrades that let you reach deeper water.

For you if...

+you like games that progress with little input
+you enjoy collecting strange creatures as the pond changes
+you prefer dark pixel art and an unsettling atmosphere

Not for you if...

−you want direct control of the hook when fishing
−you expect detailed descriptions of creatures and their world
−you want fishing to demand your full attention

What players say
