A whole new audience will develop thalassophobia as Dredge is coming to mobile

There are some games you don’t play, yet leave a huge impression on you, and for me one of those was Dredge. I watched members of the YouTube group The Boys play it and heard from a friend it was amazing, and soon there will be a second chance to mend my oversight, as Dredge is coming to mobile at the end of the year.

If you've never played Dredge allow me, someone who also didn’t, to enlighten you with my lack of knowledge. You play a fisherman who arrives at the distant land of Greater Marrow to be this isolated town's new angler. You will head into the water on your boat, catch fish, and then head back to town, sell your product, upgrade your ship, and do it all over again. Sounds like a delightful fishing simulator on the face of it, right up until the point you fish at night, feel the gaze of dozens of spectral eyes on you, and then get consumed by an eldritch beast. Greater Marrow is hiding secrets of the supernatural, and you will need to get to the bottom of them, as only a fisherman can. Who needs Scooby-Doo? 

At the time of writing, you will only be able to find the product page for Dredge on the App Store, and not Google Play. This is because according to Google, as reported by one of the creators, the team who made it doesn’t own the rights to the product. Someone, please figure that one out for me. We can presume this will be sorted out shortly, under the law of duh.

When Dredge releases on December 18th on the App Store and no doubt Google Play, it will be a premium purchase, however, the Apple version will feature a demo. Blows landing from all directions on Google on this one.
