How it feels

A soothing desktop game where a cute crocodile fishes passively, letting you relax or focus on other tasks without pressure.

What players say

Players mostly recommend this as a nice idle game to run at work, but many complain the rod breaks too often and bait costs quickly eat into any profit. There is also frustration that progress fully resets when moving to a new map.
