By day, Out Fishing is a relaxing simulator where you cast your rod, catch fish, and skip stones, reminiscent of childhood getaways. You sell fish to earn money, upgrade gear, and build a camp as a fragile safe haven. At night, the lake and woods turn eerie, with strange visions, cryptic voices, and unsettling moments blurring memory and hallucination in a slow-burn horror story that unfolds at your pace.

Beyond fishing and resource management, you’ll upgrade tools, unlock new techniques, and use vehicles to explore deeper waters and eerie wilderness areas, though the woods feel hostile. A shotgun, introduced later with scarce ammo, offers a last-ditch defense, but the game emphasizes psychological horror and atmosphere over combat.

Still in early development, Out Fishing’s creepy premise will clearly draw comparisons to DREDGE for its mix of fishing and horror.
