Did you like this game?
How to Fish is a multiplayer fishing simulation game that has you stranded on an island. To find your way back home, you have to learn how to fish, but using any object that might be useful to do so.
You have to earn money by selling the fish and buy better gear and weapons, or you can gamble the fish with your friends, but you also have to fight bosses to get to new islands and find better gear there.
The game was released on August 20, 2026 and it sold 1 million copies in 2 days, which is a huge accomplishment for an indie title. Four days after launch, it reached over 340,000 concurrent players, and it has "overwhelmingly positive" reviews.
How to Fish is a game that can be played solo or between 4 people; it's a physics-based chaotic game that can have you laughing with your friends. Dazed Games, the developer behind the game, shared on Twitter/X how the project started in 2025.
You can see that the characters started as bean-shaped people and then they got more human-like, but if you like the first one, you can try to finish the game within an hour to unlock the bean-shaped character.
You can get the game on Steam. Don't forget to subscribe to our Newsletter, join our 80 Level Talent platform and Discord, and follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, Telegram, and Instagram, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
