Type: Strategy Games
An unfortunate fishing game about pulling progressively more horrifying things out of the ocean.
Decide what to eat, what to sell, what to mount, and how many regrets you're willing to carry, as you push yourself too far and spiral towards a thrilling conclusion in this strategic horror fishing game.
You'll roll bespoke tackle dice at the start of each turn to determine your strength for that round and then decide whether you'll stay at sea or return to port to sell fish, buy provisions, and recharge your energy.
Survey the sizes of shadows on the backs of 9 different fish shoals at three depths, determining what you think you can afford to catch and if you want to risk it for a potentially better reward. Flip fish, spend dice, add them to your collection - but beware of reveal and catch abilities that can have various effects on the game!
Each fish, item and character has been meticulously hand-inked by illustrator Judson Cowan, then coloured by hand in Procreate. It's an absolutely gorgeous world with many, many dark surprises to uncover.
As your eyes spy more and more horrifying things, you'll collect Regrets cards - which drive up your madness but also give you access to more dice and increase the value of weirder fish. It's a risk/reward scenario as you balance your madness, knowing that at the end of the game the player with the highest value of Regrets will have to discard their most valuable mounted fish.
Manage you resources, make strategic decisions, leverage madness to your benefit and suppress your Regrets as you try to catch the most valuable haul of weirder and weirder fish on this thrilling week at sea.
SOLO MODE:
In the solo mode (which you can also co-op), you'll act as an ichthyologist on a mission to catch and catalog every fish in the sea. Over a campaign of dozens of games, you'll try to reel in every last fish and document their attributes on provided catalog sheet. At the end of each game, you'll have to discard an equal value of fish to the regrets you've collected and may have to let some fish go to return to another day. At the end of the campaign, you'll have a catalog of all fish names, depths, values and difficulties that can be used by players in the multiplayer game to help identify what they might fish up!

When we are notified of a new item, we will list it for pre-order with an estimated arrival window. Pre-order means we are taking advanced orders for an item. It has not been received yet and we are unable to ship until a later date. The pre-order option is good way to lock in your order for an item that could potentially sell out by the time we are ready to ship. Pre-orders will be fulfilled in the order that they are placed.
We no longer require payment in advance for pre-order items.
The process for placing a pre-order is the same as for ordering anything else through our webstore, except no payment details are taken at the final stage. Instead you will be asked to confirm your pre-order following which you will be emailed a Confirmation Order for your pre-order item.
IMPORTANT: Please do not add in stock and pre-order items on the same order; these need to be submitted on separate orders. Any in stock items ordered together with a pre-order will not be reserved. Additional items can be added to a pre-order once it is in stock and ready to ship.
ALSO: Please place separate orders for pre-order items unless they are part of a set and will be released and made available at the same time.
Payment for a pre-order item is not required until closer to inventory arrival. Once we are notified by a supplier that a pre-order item is about to ship we will e-mail you an invoice for payment. This invoice will direct you to the checkout page of our webstore where final payment can then be made. At this time any gift cards or loyalty vouchers can also be applied, other items from our store can also be added.
You will have 5 days to complete payment; if payment is not received within this time frame, your pre-order will be cancelled, and inventory opened to the public. Please pay attention to your inbox during the estimated arrival window for all your pre-order items.
Once payment is made you will receive an email confirmation from us of your order. Further emails will be sent once your order ships including tracking information.
If you wish to, you can make payment for a pre-order item at any point after placing your order. Please email us at hello@thirstymeeples.co.uk quoting your order number and we will email you your invoice for payment.
Please note, we cannot accept payment for pre-order items using PayPal owing to their restrictions on the pre-selling of items not yet in stock.
You can cancel any pre-order items that you have on order any time prior to shipment.
Please send all pre-order cancellation requests via email to: hello@thirstymeeples.co.uk and reference the order # in the subject heading.
Please be aware: store credit will be provided for cancellation of a paid in advance pre-order item.
All pre-order items will be designated with an estimated arrival window. This estimated arrival window may change based on updated feedback from our suppliers. We will update our listings once we have confirmed something has changed. We cannot guarantee pre-order items will arrive as per the estimated arrival window and we will not provide any compensation for any pre-order items that do not arrive in this said window.
In some rare cases, the price on a pre-order item may change after being listed.If the price is reduced prior to shipping, your price will be adjusted so that you receive the lowest price.
In rare circumstances, mandatory price increases may also happen to a pre-order item. This could occur when one of our suppliers solicits the item with a pricing error or when currency or tax rates are amended. In the event that the price increases, we will notify the affected customers. As always you are free to cancel your pre-order at any time.
We will try our best to fill every pre-order, but in rare cases a situation may be out of our control. If we cannot fulfill your pre-order, we will notify you immediately and process a refund. Keep in mind, no compensation will be provided for any inconveniences.
If you submit an order on a pre-order item, you agree to comply with our Pre-Order Policy as noted.
