Somewhere deep in the fog, a mysterious lake awaits your bait. Out Fishing, the surreal first-person horror fishing game from solo developer Mūn Mūn Games and indie tastemakers UNIKAT Label, has just been revealed, and it’s a trip you won’t want to take alone.
Announced today with a debut trailer that’s as quiet as it is haunting, Out Fishing lures players into the deceptive calm of a remote lake surrounded by a whispering forest and crawling with…things.
From the minds that brought you POOLS and Dystopika, this unassuming fishing sim hides a psychological horror experience beneath its still waters. The premise has you fishing by day and fleeing by night, and trying not to lose your grip on reality in between.
Players set up camp on the lakeshore and settle into what appears to be a relaxing job: upgrade your gear, catch fish, sell them for profit. But as night falls, the forest changes. Your tools break, the fish start talking, and the trees lean in. And you start asking questions no one should ever answer.
Out Fishing features a unique blend of light survival mechanics, a shifting day-night cycle that affects both fish and phantoms, and a narrative delivered through exploration, uncanny visions, and disquieting discoveries.
Game Features:
- A horror story you experience at your own pace, told through exploration, fishing, strange visions, and unsettling finds.
- Upgrades and tools to access deeper waters, stranger areas, and the woods, even though the woods do not want you. And profit. Can’t forget profit.
- Light survival mechanics that focus on tension, not inventory spreadsheets.
- A shifting day-night cycle that affects the fish, the forest, and the things you were told aren’t real.
- A hauntingly quiet world full of memory echoes, half-truths, and one unspeakable goal: Reel in the thing that should’ve stayed buried.
With its mist-choked atmosphere and lo-fi tension, Out Fishing positions itself as a quiet genre-bender: part fishing sim, part psychological horror, and all unsettling vibes. Wishlist it on Steam now, if you dare.
