About the Game

Catch a short taste of The Big Catch and see if you're ready for the full adventure!


The Big Catch: Tacklebox is a standalone chapter and prologue to The Big Catch. Play as Tackle (Caster's rival and co-worker) during his final days of training before being hired by Chef Leurre. Test your platforming prowess, surf the sands, and get your feet wet catching some fish.

This free title won't come close to reaching the depths of the upcoming full game, but we hope you'll find dipping your toes refreshing nonetheless!

If you're hungry for more after this appetizer, do be sure to wishlist the full game! You're gonna want to finish this meal- once it's ready.
