About the Game

Explore the waters of Lake Little at your own pace in a cozy fishing adventure inspired by Michigan and the Great Lakes. Cruise between handcrafted islands, fish in hidden ponds and rivers, collect curios along the shore, and uncover the secrets of the lake.

Play as Leigh, a second mate setting out on her own after her best friend and captain, Maren, moves away. Follow clues on a treasure hunt for a hidden wish that may bring them back together.

Fish right from your boat or venture inland in search of secluded ponds and rivers.

Fish swim throughout the world, leaping from the water and gathering around points of interest. Some species are easy to find, while others stay hidden until you discover the right location, conditions, or gear to bring them out.

Collect shells, bones, treasures, mushrooms, and other curios around the world. Fill out your field guide, mark discoveries on your map, and track down every fish and curio Lake Little has to offer. Each discovery contributes to your progression.

End each day at Wakewood's night market! Sell your catch and visit the rotating shops for valuable boat, fishing gear, and other upgrades. Don't forget to pick up your favorite cosmetic to keep things fresh.

Wind down with lakeside festivities, sip Kraken's Pop & Tonics for helpful buffs, enjoy live music, or spend a quiet evening fishing at the docks.

Catch up with Leigh's friends as you explore the world. Help them with odd jobs, learn fishing tips, and challenge them to friendly games. Watch them gather each evening as the night market comes alive with chatter and celebration.
