A Fisherman’s Tale review
A Fisherman's Tale has some fantastic puzzles and great level design, but the movement manages to ruin some of the puzzles.

A Fisherman’s Tale tells a charming story with surprising depth that is unfortunately marred by technical issues. Within its brief playtime, the game’s story packs in enough thought provoking content that I found myself thinking about it for days after playing. Though I’m not recommending A Fisherman’s Tale, I wouldn’t blame you if you decided to play it anyhow.
