Little Lake Boat Fishing Game Announced by Tiny Boat Games

Tiny Boat Games announced Little Lake on August 26 for PC (Steam) and Nintendo Switch, planned for the second quarter of 2027. The cozy fishing adventure follows second mate Leigh on a treasure hunt for a hidden wish after her captain friend Maren moves away. Players collect over 100 items, fish in an open world, and visit a night market.

Little Lake is a cozy fishing adventure set in Lake Little, inspired by the Great Lakes region of Michigan. You play as second mate Leigh, who goes out on the boat alone after her best friend and captain, Maren, moves away. The goal is a treasure hunt for a hidden wish that could bring them back together.

Collecting drives the game. You gather over 100 items, including fish, shells, bones, mushrooms, and curiosities, and fill out a field guide. Some fish bite only under the right conditions, and some items require solving puzzles. At night, you return to the town of Wakewood, where an evening night market lets you sell fish, upgrade gear, dress up, listen to live music, or go quiet pier fishing.
