Good luck! The brave Baelin becomes a reluctant hero when he finds that his home village has been razed to the ground.
If you’re wondering while looking at the article picture: No, we didn’t dress up in cosplay outfits on purpose. The very motivated gentleman is a member of the successful YouTube group Viva La Dirt League
The successful influencers are also behind the weird universe in which the fishing role-playing game (yes, really) Nice Day For Fishing takes place. So, if you’re familiar with the YouTube channel, you already know that the title has plenty of humor.
But there is also a lot on offer in terms of gameplay. The team from FusionPlay and the publisher Team17 showed a brand new trailer on the occasion of our big FYNG Caggtus Show. It includes lots of gameplay scenes and also a specific release date!
Once upon a time in Honeywood …
Life isn’t easy for Baelin the Fisherman. One day, he returns to find that his home village has been razed to the ground by sinister forces in his absence.
Instead of just sticking his head in the water, Baelin throws out his fishing rod. Because he can do that, no one can teach him that so quickly. The result is a creative role-playing game that you don’t get to play every day.
Because as soon as Baelin casts his fishing rod and a fish bites, you have to use skills, attack, block, parry and yes, even cast spells in the best RPG manner If you are successful, you will get a big catch. This will bring Baelin one step closer to saving his homeland!
Role-playing with bite
The fuller your catch book is, the more abilities you can unlock to help you defeat even stronger sea or lake creatures. Of course, Baelin also levels up through experience points, which increases his attributes.
Have we already mentioned the sunken ruins that you can search for treasure with a magnet at the end of the fishing line? Or the quest givers who, for example, want a certain type of oyster from you? Or the game’s construction manager who lets you beautify your village bit by bit?
Oh, you’ll notice: Nice Day For Fishing has a lot to offer despite its simple 2D pixel look. If the game has you hooked now, you can on Steam already put it on your wishlist. There is not much time left until the release, the fishing fun starts on May 29, 2025.
We already mentioned it at the beginning: our big FYNG event is currently running on the occasion of the Caggtus trade fair in Leipzig, which takes place from April 11 to 13, 2025.
