        Pretty sure played a fishing game called Dredge.

        Fishing / cosmic horror, iirc.

        You could lay traps and drag lines behind your boat as you progressed.

        And discover the bizarre mystery of what happend to the last fisherman.

          Damn that game is so good… The mechanics might fall apart if they were expanded too much in the wrong direction, but outside of the start, it’s paced well, written well, has a good sound track, etc… excellent.

          Though FUCK the RNG for having to catch an aberration before the game truly starts.

      Good point! I suggest fishing spears if only to grief the players who are begging for spears as a melee weapon in ESO.

      But more seriously: a spear mechanic at least would have an element of skill to aim at the fish and account for refraction - or something. Not just pure chance.
