About Fishing in Sea

Fishing in Sea is an arcade collecting game played under the surface, where the aim is to pull in as much as the water will give up before a run ends. Fish drift past at different depths and speeds, each one adding to the total, but they are only part of the haul. Seahorses, starfish and seashells are there to be gathered, worms and treasure appear among them, bubbles carry gifts, and clocks stretch out the time you have left. Sharks are the complication, patrolling the same stretch of water and ready to end a promising run. What separates Fishing in Sea from gentler fishing games is that pace: it rewards quick reading of the screen rather than patience, and sessions are short enough that the natural response to a bad run is to start another one.

How to Play Fishing in Sea

Fishing in Sea plays with the mouse. Move the pointer to line up a catch and click to grab whatever is within reach, dragging to steer if the game gives you direct control. On a phone or tablet, tap and drag on the screen instead. No keyboard is needed. Keep clear of sharks, take clocks when they appear, and the run lasts until your time is gone.

Tips and Tricks

Treat clocks as the most valuable pickup on screen. Extra time is worth more than any single catch, because everything else you collect depends on how long you stay in the water.
Sharks travel along fairly steady paths, so watch a couple of passes before committing. Waiting for a gap costs you a second or two; getting caught costs the whole run.
Take the cluster over the prize. Three nearby fish or shells usually add up faster than one long trip across the screen for something shiny, and the trip exposes you to hazards.
Learn which items help and which cost you. Bombs share the water with the collectables, so note the shape of anything that ends a run badly and leave it alone next time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to download or install anything to play?

No. Fishing in Sea runs in the browser on Dubdoo, so it loads and plays straight away without a download, install or account.

Can I play it on a phone or tablet?

Yes. Tapping and dragging on the screen replaces the mouse, and the game is simple enough to control with one thumb.

Is there a story or an ending, or is it purely about the score?

It is a score-chasing arcade game rather than a story-driven one. A run ends when you run out of time or get caught, and the point is to beat your previous total.

What should I be collecting besides fish?

Seahorses, starfish, seashells, worms, treasure and gift bubbles all count towards your total, and clocks give you more time in the water.

How do the sharks work?

They move through the same water you are fishing in and will cut a run short if you swim into them, so timing your grabs around their movement is most of the challenge.
