How it feels

Exploring and fishing in a foggy archipelago feels peaceful until nightfall, when dread creeps in as you look for supplies and secrets.

What players say

Players praise the art, atmosphere, and satisfying fishing and upgrade loop, but many say the main story is short at around 12 hours. Some feel the game's content is intentionally split across DLCs, leaving gaps without them.
