Fish Bay

LA NORME PARIS

About this game

Fish Bay is a harbour puzzle about packing a ship. Stacks of three crates drift down the hold and you decide where they land. Move a stack left or right, touch a column to send it straight there, or cycle the three crates inside the stack so the catch you need sits at the bottom.

Three or more of the same catch in a row, a column or a diagonal are packed away, and whatever sits above slides down and can pack again. Long chains are where the big scores hide.

Twelve docks line the harbour, each with a quota of crates to pack and a hold that drifts down a little faster than the last. Fill the quota to open the next dock. Let the hold reach the top and the dock is lost, though it can always be worked again.

Packed crates pay pearls into the tin, and the gear shed turns pearls into real help. A slower current gives more thinking time, the deck light shows more of the stacks still to come, the harbour crane lifts a full row clear, and a heavier hull pays more pearls for the same work. Each fitting has three levels.

The logbook keeps a running record of every catch packed, and eight awards mark the milestones. Everything runs offline with no account and nothing to buy, and one control in settings clears all stored data.
