Our take on Cornerpond
Its defining format is a fishing game that remains in a desktop corner, with automatic catches continuing while other tasks occupy the rest of the screen.
What is Cornerpond?
Cornerpond is an idle fishing game that occupies a corner of the desktop while other tasks continue.
The character catches fish automatically, with occasional larger catches requiring attention. Caught fish can be sold for money used on rod, bait, and cosmetic upgrades. The game includes five biomes and more than 100 types of fish to discover. Players can customize an avatar and record catches in a journal, with the collection goal of finding every fish across all biomes. Progress continues at the player’s own pace, combining passive fishing with periodic interaction and collection.
