Our take on No Anglerfish
Rather than presenting exploration as travel between conventional action encounters, the game ties access to nearby islands to arcade machines. That gives its island-hopping structure a puzzle-and-arcade focus, with character relationships offering optional secrets and bonuses.
What is No Anglerfish?
After waking on a desert island with no memory of who you are or how you arrived, explore the island and its surroundings.
Arcade machines scattered across the lands serve as the way to open up other islands. The adventure includes puzzles, dialogue, and hidden Easter eggs. Meeting characters is optional; making friends can reveal additional secrets and provide bonuses. Progress through the islands while uncovering more about the character’s situation and pursuing a personal destiny. The game combines exploration with arcade-machine play rather than describing a conventional sequence of action challenges.
