Reelbound

A little wooden boat. A Cathedral Kraken. One line between you.

Reelbound is a fishing and collection game about reading the pull, choosing your next discovery, and bringing a living catch home. Work your way from tiny minnows to extraordinary creatures and earned guardian hunts.

Win the tug of war
Hold to reel inside each fish's safe tension band. Ease off when it surges. Pull too hard and the line can snap; let it go slack and the fish can escape. Bring the fish all the way to your boat to land the catch. Fish dart, dive and dig in; the Cathedral elder plants its arms and demands a different rhythm.

Choose what bites
Follow journal clues for water, habitat, depth, lure and time of day. Combine two bait ingredients, preview encounter odds and discover recipes that change which fish you may meet. Plain dough gives you unlimited casts. Earn credits for better rods, lures and supplies. Build your expedition winch and choose tackle for softer pulls, faster retrieval or abrasion protection.

Make each discovery matter
Discover 96 fictional fish and creatures, from small common catches to rare specimens and living giants. Earn catch credits and bonuses for first discoveries, rarity, clean catches and records. Keep your discoveries swimming in living exhibits, choose a favorite for your harbor, and pursue collection rewards and fishing commissions.

Earn your next water
Explore six waters: Lantern Lake, Clockwater Canal, Pearlwater Bay, Sunpetal Falls, Glowmire Marsh and Starglass Grotto. Progress through discoveries, mixed-bait catches, commissions and guardian victories. Track and repeat seven guardian hunts, including Lantern Maw, Crown Wyrm and the Cathedral elder.

Fishing works offline. Progress is saved on your device. Every fish, water and effective upgrade has an earned route. Optional auto-hook, gentler pacing, reduced movement and separate audio controls let you adjust the experience without reducing rewards.

Optional purchases include credit packs. Earned or purchased credits can buy bait ingredients; crafted bait changes encounter probabilities. Preview the odds before casting. A purchase never guarantees a particular fish.
