Dark Fishing Adventure DREADMOOR Gets BitSummit Hands-On Report
Game Spark published a hands-on report for DREADMOOR, a dark first-person fishing adventure game, from the BitSummit PUNCH indie game festival held in Kyoto from May 22 to 24, 2026. The game is developed by Dream Dock and published by Digital Vortex Entertainment. Set in a flooded world where most of humanity has sunk beneath the sea, players pilot a fishing boat through wetlands and shipwrecks. The demo focused on the core fishing system, which uses real-time controls that create a tense back-and-forth with the environment. Fish pulled from the murky water have grotesque, mutated designs. Caught fish can be traded with scattered settlements and mysterious merchants for higher prices. The full game will also include a crafting system for making special bait, weapons, and medicine from scrap metal collected in abandoned buildings, plus real-time combat against monsters that attack from sea and land. DREADMOOR is scheduled for release on PC via Steam in the fourth quarter of 2026.
