Description

About the Game

Captain your fishing trawler to explore a collection of remote isles, and their surrounding depths, to see what lies below. Sell your catch to the locals and complete quests to learn more about each area’s troubled past. Outfit your boat with better equipment to trawl deep-sea trenches and navigate to far-off lands, but keep an eye on the time. You might not like what finds you in the dark...

Explore the Islands & Discover their Secrets

Starting from your new home in the remote archipelago, ‘The Marrows’, take to the water and scour the depths for curious collectables and over 125 deep sea denizens. Explore each area while completing quests and visiting neighbouring island regions – each with their own unique opportunities, inhabitants, and secrets.

Dredge the Depths

Someone wants you to dig up the past, but can you trust them and will it ever be enough?

Beware the Fog

Danger is everywhere, so watch for sharp rocks and shallow reefs, though the biggest threats of all lurk within the fog that cloaks the night-time seas...

Game Features:

  • Unravel a Mystery: Captain your fishing trawler across a collection of remote islands, each with its own inhabitants to meet, wildlife to discover, and stories to unearth.

  • Dredge the Depths: Scour the sea for hidden treasures and complete quests to gain access to strange new abilities

  • Study Your Craft: Research special equipment and upgrade your boat’s capabilities to gain access to rare fish and valuable deep-sea curios.

  • Fish to Survive: Sell your discoveries to the locals to learn more about each area, and upgrade your boat to reach even more secluded locations.

  • Fight the Unfathomable: Strengthen your mind and use your abilities to survive trips out on the water after dark.

Cinema. Pure Cinema. This is just a great fishing game start to finish. The upgrades keep you coming back for more, the eldritch horror brings a cool story, and nothing is too random to make it grindy. Get this game and

Lovecraftian fishing turns out is very fun. Filling out the encyclopedia of fish is also very fun plus seeing all the sea monsters and corrupted fish as you boat around the archipelago is fun too. But I can't help but

This is the second time I bought this game. First on Switch and then on PC. If that does not tell you how good this game is I do not know what to say. A relaxing Lovecraftian game. Highly recommend!

Dredge has a fun concept, with some initially joyful gameplay and upgrade loops, but the tech tree cuts out too fast, the biomes and locations are pretty bare, and the vibe gives "indie for the sake of indie." Cthulhu

Genuinely adore this game. The story is great, and many of the characters have so much personality packed in the few interactions you have with them. The environment is really creepy even when nothing is really
