Gilded Shoals

A small boat. A lively sea. One more upgrade.

Gilded Shoals is an incremental fishing game built around short voyages and lasting upgrades. Move your net over a living shoal, bring your catch home, and choose the next improvement before setting sail again.

Make every cast go further
Start with a modest net and build toward electric chains, bursting puffers, drifting storms and traveling nets. Add automated helpers and sonar, then watch your equipment and special catches work together. Your next upgrade can change how the whole shoal reacts.

Choose your route through the chart
Explore 232 upgrades across eight connected branches. Strengthen your casts, discover new catches, improve your helpers or make each haul more valuable. Grow your boat through 35 levels and reach the campaign's ending, with optional fishing beyond it.

A different sea at departure
Later voyages can bring nine unusual sea conditions, from a Silver Run to a Moonrise Migration. Changing currents, migrating shoals and drifting cargo alter the opportunities on the water. Fill your field journal, earn milestone rewards and uncover hidden achievements along the way.

Two ways to grow
Calm Waters offers one-time discoveries. Rising Tide adds repeatable upgrades and Pearl keystones. Each mode keeps its own progress, so you can explore both at your own pace.

Discover nine catch types, including Spark Rays, Tempest Jellies and drifting treasure, in an illustrated sea with warm brass details and an original synthesized soundtrack.
