What you'll do
Fish with feel
Read the shadows, cast, strike on the bite and play every fight - darters, divers, thrashers, jumpers and the legends that rise at dusk.
Raise companions
Find rare forms, discover their signature spell, bond with your favorites and build a team that fights beside you.
Make a home
Farm, cook and craft on your own island; furnish it, dye it, and fly your own designs from its banners.
Sail together
Party up, found a crew, crew a ship to the Trench, and take on world bosses with dozens of others.
Explore seven rings
From the gentle Shallows through marsh, reef, ice, fire and sky to the deep - each with its own fish, folk and story.
Compete if you like
Ranked heats, the Pet Arena, regattas and shows, and the season's Grand Tide Derby with a final the whole world can watch.
v0.76.0 — Clear areas and focused tasks
Find each task in ten clear areas: Items and equipment, Craft and customize, Companions, Goals and progress, Collections, People and crew, Explore and compete, Your island, Shops and trading, and Settings and help. Smaller screens show one related task at a time. Search opens the exact task, and your selections and drafts stay ready when you return.
Fishing uses larger Left! and Right! mouse prompts, with Left! staying visible while reeling is appropriate. Surge announcement cards are removed. The small fish-position strip above the dial is removed.
Discover pets, earn their trust and capture them through a timed bonding moment. Your companions protect you from 395 new hostile creatures, with local rosters across the adventure islands and varied portal habitats.
Explore 42 staffed service buildings across six village neighborhoods. Meet the fishmonger, lure maker, shipwright, alchemist, guild keepers and more. Each counter opens its own working service; the village directory and chart show the way.
Your active team is right on the HUD: click a portrait to choose a replacement outside combat. Tiles ease gently into both their rise and their final position.
Open Pets directly from the HUD to arrange your team while exploring. Ponds and discoveries reveal their supporting tiles, with softer landings and small dust puffs at impact.
A calmer explorer HUD puts clear skill icons, levels and XP rings together. Open any skill with one click, read cargo at a glance and expand quest coaching only when you need it. Your five levels and current objective stay visible.
Use named task buttons on desktop or a compact selector on smaller screens. Quests, skills, companions, crafting, the market and settings are split into focused pages.
Browse quests by status or search for a goal. Return to selected items, expanded details and the chart view you left. Responsive pages, clearer companion portraits and organized HUD lanes keep actions and rewards easy to read.
Arrange your pet team directly on the Pets screen anywhere outside combat, and pet, play or groom with one tap. Grow your collection from 12 to 128 companions through Beastbond. Discoveries and rewards wait on the right with Collect/E and a close button; your five skill levels stay visible.
Make an explorer your own with adult proportions, smoother movement and 30 new hair, outfit and accessory choices. A springier rod, surface-aware line and smoother bobber bring fishing to life. The familiar fishing dial has finer brasswork and clear left/right action marks.
Choose any story quest or optional lesson in Journal → Your progress → Quests. Hide the tracker and its world guidance when you want to wander, or pin a different goal. Explore freely clears every destination; Show the way still works from other screens. Your selection stays saved for that character.
Restore an island together. Everyone in the same island channel sees its working mechanisms, opened routes and creatures. Each visitor still earns their own discovery credit and rewards, including their own treasure choice.
Cast into continuous streams and landscape channels with the same layered liquid treatment as ponds. Rounded watercourses, richer pond reflections and improved falling water make exploring the banks more rewarding. The classic ground puff returns with the smoother tile rise, without the perimeter flash.
Find recognizable chests, journals, camps and planted gardens. Enjoy distinct item illustrations, clearer navigation, expandable item details and a fishing display that shows a mouse action only when you need it.
