Quick steps to get started
Goal: catch fish, sell them at the dock, buy better tackle, complete quests and unlock new lakes. Land the lake monsters, then call up each lake's legend.
Computer: W/S to row, A/D to turn. Hold Left Click on the water to aim and release to cast. Click or press Space when the float really goes under, then hold to reel in. In a fight keep the tension out of the red and hold A/D to lean the rod away from the fish. E opens the dock shop at the dock, J quests, P pause.
Phone: left stick to row and turn. Right stick: hold to aim, let go to cast; tap when the float goes under, hold to reel in, push away from the fish in a fight.
What's it all about?
Row out onto a dark lake with a lantern, a rod and the feeling that something below is watching. Night Lake is a calm, eerie fishing game: cast your float or spin a lure, strike when the float goes under, and fight each fish with reel and rod. Sell your catch at the dock, upgrade your tackle and unlock new lakes, from a pine lake to jungle bayous, frozen shores and a ruined mill pond. But the lake is not empty: monsters can tow your boat, and every lake hides a legend waiting for the right bait after midnight.
