I love a good fishing game, which may be a controversial opinion for the PC Gamer team, but I stand by my convictions. Fishing is a nice, calming experience that gives me a desperately needed break from my regular horrifying and brutal games. But sometimes fishing with Willie in Stardew Valley doesn't quite cut it, and that's where Steam's Fishing Fest (a fishing-themed sale that ends soon), and Scale the Depths come in.
Scale the Depths is a cutesy pixel-art fishing game which sees players catch fish and prepare them to sell off to hungry patrons. Not human patrons, though: There's a ton of different visitors who'll come to your boat situated in Loch Ness, like otters and ospreys, selkies and kelpies, and of course the Loch Ness monster if you're doing particularly well.
