About Night Lake
Grab your lantern and step into a wooden boat for a peaceful angling adventure in Night Lake. Under the glow of the moon, you navigate quiet waters, aim your cast, and wait patiently for fish to take the bait. Striking at just the right second hooks your quarry, challenging you to balance line tension carefully with your rod and reel before reeling it in.
Dock back at shore to sell your nightly haul for coins and experience points. You can spend your earnings on upgraded rods, lines, baits, reels, and charms to help tackle tougher waters. Complete three daily quests each evening to earn extra rewards, log new species in your personal field guide, and unlock destinations like the misty Black Bayou and bass-filled Hollow Reeds.
