Game pageCast n Chill: choose between fishing and watching

Switch between active and idle fishing.
Players value switching between idle and manual play around their own activities.
What makes it fun
Save a special catch for yourself
Idle mode can keep fishing while you work. Its settings let you prevent trophy and legendary catches, leaving those fish for you to pursue when you switch to manual play.
Watch the fish before reeling
Choose a rod and lure, then cast. Stop reeling while the fish fights and resume when it settles. Even at a quiet fishing spot, landing a catch calls for timing.
Your catch opens up new scenery
Sell your catch to improve your rods and lures and unlock new fishing spots. Each place brings different fish to seek and another pixel-art landscape to take in.
