Dredge makes “one more fish” a bad idea
Upgrade the boat, fill the hold and try to reach port before the fog rolls in.
There’s room for another fish. The sun is going down, but the harbor isn’t that far away. Dredge gets a lot out of that small, stupid decision.
Our Algebra says Dave the Diver + Sunless Sea. Maybe it’s the comfortable routine of selling a catch and buying better equipment, interrupted by the suspicion that you shouldn’t be out here. You explore islands, squeeze fish into your hold and upgrade your boat to reach stranger waters. After dark, getting home becomes more complicated.
People praise the atmosphere, though some find the fishing repetitive once the upgrades stop feeling essential. The appeal depends on enjoying that daily routine as well as the mystery around it.
Our recommendation
Try it if you like collecting things and improving your gear, with something unpleasant waiting just beyond the lights.
