Embark on a relaxing tropical adventure in this cozy fishing RPG! Explore wondrous locations and befriend a charming cast of characters on your quest to become a master angler and discover the true meaning of paradise!
Fishing Paradiso is the highly acclaimed follow-up to the award-winning adventure game, Bearâs Restaurant.
And yes, we already know what youâre thinking.
âWhat!? How did a game like THAT spinoff into a FISHING RPG!?â
But just trust us: it works.
Set in a vibrant pixelated paradise, you play as a deceased amnesiac on a quest to discover his true identity alongside his cute but obnoxious bird companion. The more you fish, the more the story will progress, as you meet and forge lasting bonds with the other denizens of the afterlife. And now, you can enjoy the full experience with Fishing Paradiso: Complete Edition, featuring a revamped soundtrack and some all-new features never seen in the original mobile version.
âThough this may be Heaven, you'll still have to search in order to find your own true paradiseâŚâ
The last thing you remember hearing after your untimely death are these mysterious words, said by a giant fish floating amidst a sea of stars.
When you next awaken in the afterlife, you find yourself on a tiny deserted island in the middle of the ocean. No pearly gates, no choir of angels to greet youâjust a couple of palm trees and an annoying little bird to keep you company. For a place called Heaven, it sure doesnât feel much like paradise. Thereâs no shelter to protect you from the elements, nor even any food to eat. In fact, the only thing here at all seems to be an old fishing rod lying down by the shore.
Looks like youâre gonna have to learn how to fish.
As the story progresses, youâll encounter a diverse cast of fellow afterlife inhabitants from both Heaven and Hell alike, each with their own problems and emotional baggage. But with your trusty skyPhone and fishing skills, you can help solve them all!
To be sure, it likely wonât be a pleasant journey the whole way through.But why not set sail on a little adventure anyway? You might just uncover the true meaning of paradise.
What kind of place do you think heaven might be?
I asked myself this question many times during the initial drafting phases for this game. After all, weâre told in life that heaven is the land of eternal happiness. But we humans come in all shapes and sizes, and happiness means different things to different people. Even in the realm of fiction, crafting an ideal paradise that truly lives up to the name for everyone is a daunting prospect, but the world of Fishing Paradiso represents the answer I ultimately arrived at.
At the end of the day, itâs a game about the simple pleasures in life, and I hope youâll enjoy going fishing and getting to know some new friends in this laidback world. But who knowsâmaybe itâll also make you think a little more about what your own personal heaven might look like. That could be fun too, donât you think?
