A haunting voyage beneath the waves

DREDGE is a beautifully eerie fishing adventure that blends relaxing gameplay with slow-building psychological horror. As captain of a modest trawler, you’ll explore shadowy waters, uncover lost secrets, and decide just how deep you're willing to dredge—both into the sea and the unsettling mysteries it hides. 

Upgrade and unravel secrets 

Sailing between remote islands, you’ll catch over 125 strange sea creatures, upgrade your boat, and complete quests for wary locals in DREDGE. The loop of fishing and upgrading is deeply satisfying. However, inventory management can feel slightly restrictive, especially when space is tight and time is against you. 

Nightfall changes everything—hidden horrors emerge in the fog, testing your nerves and your vessel’s limits. The eerie sound design and creeping madness system create a subtle but persistent dread. It’s not just about survival, but whether you can trust what you’re seeing… or hearing. 

A fishing game like no other 

DREDGE masterfully fuses cozy fishing mechanics with Lovecraftian tension. Its unique tone, atmospheric storytelling, and addictive gameplay loop make it a standout indie experience. For players who enjoy quiet dread and strange beauty, this haunting voyage is well worth taking.
