A fisherman cat keeps a stall on a wooden pier, and beneath the planks the fish are running: bands of current carry silhouettes in opposite directions, each at its own speed. A queue forms at the counter — pelicans, kittens, an old turtle — and each one holds an order card. The boat drifts back and forth along the pier; your part is a single tap. The hook drops, pierces the water and catches the first thing it meets. The right fish goes to the customer, the wrong one goes overboard with a penalty line in the report, and seaweed means an empty catch and lost seconds. This is a game about reading the flow: which band carries the silhouette you need, and whether the boat will be above it in time.
Shifts run from a quiet morning pier to festival rush: new species, schools of a single fish, double orders, currents that quicken under a storm warning. A shift is done when every order is closed before the bell, and a flawless one is marked apart. In rush hour the queue never ends: each customer's patience melts away, and three who leave angry close the stall.
While the water is calm, the pier lives its own life. A river-lore quiz covers what a red buoy marks and why salmon swim home. A balance-scale puzzle asks you to load fish onto the pan to hit an exact weight — overshoot and the pan resets. Tokens open boats, from a quiet teal dory to a night trawler with its own lantern, and a catch wall gathers snapshots of everything the stall is proud of. Watch the lanes, cast true — and send everyone home with their fish.
