Gods of Angling tasks you with building a fishing hero from hundreds of character options and watching them progress through an RPG-style journey with minimal intervention. The idle loop has you setting up bait and tackle, then returning hours later to read about their catches and adventures while managing items and skills between sessions. It's designed for players who want a low-commitment game that rewards patience without constant attention-demanding systems.
About this game
Gods of Angling is a "Tamagotchi-like" Idle Fishing RPG! Create your hero from one of 300+ unique options and see if they can ascend from a reel rookie to a God.

An idler's game with an Interesting concept, but it needs more time to bake.
There simply needs more things for the player to interact with. More customization, prepping and planning, or possibly fleeing fights. Maybe allow the choice which biomes the Angler travels. Higher stakes like wounds or permadeath. I'm split on the sleep mechanic. The music is pretty good though, I like it.
If you are curious as I am, follow the patch notes. This one might be worth keeping an eye on.
UPDATE: 100 hours in, I'm lvl 20 and things to be starting to kick off. Starting to fill out my equipment slots. Finally able to buy from merchants, once I finally accumulated enough gold. Meeting Friends/Rivals.
Well. Not entirely sure what to do with this one. Without any tutorial it'ss hard to say if my experience is intended or not. But since it happened on all the characters I made I'll have to assume it's an intended mechanic.
So I make a character, everything is fine for a few seconds, then my sleep meter drains fully and my character collapses. After which nothing else happens. That's the whole thing. I tried clicking around but found nothing I could click to fix this. I imagine it can be a pretty chill game, and considering the base game is free I don't see any reasoon not to recommend it. And if either the game gets fixed with the exhaustion issue, or I figure out whatever I might be doing wrong I can imagine spending more time on it.
An Idle game that is truly an Idle Game. Bait your hook, toss your line, come back in a few hours & read about your adventures & what you caught.
Item / skill system is fun to experiment with, providing a bit of actual hands on interaction with the game, but does not require you to micro manage it at all times in FOMO on something or falling behind.
New features being added consistently, but most importantly the Dev responds and interacts with the feedback.
