About Reel Deep

Reel Deep is a fishing game with an upgrade loop. Tap the water to cast and Kepo's diving hook plunges down: steer it past the fish on the way down, then sweep it through as many fish as you can on the way back up. Every catch turns into coins you spend on a longer line, more hooks, better bait and bubble shields.

The sea has five zones, from the Sunny Shallows through the Kelp Forest, Coral Glow and Twilight Trench down to the Abyss, each with its own fish. Fill the Fishdex with 20 species, watch out for jellyfish that zap fish off your hook, and hope for the Golden Kepofish, which doubles the whole haul. Your coins, upgrades and Fishdex are saved.

Tips

On the way down, every fish you touch costs a bubble; when you run out, the hook starts reeling up early, so steer through the gaps.
On the way up, sweep sideways through schools of fish to fill your hooks fast.
Keep away from jellyfish on the way up: each zap knocks the last fish off your hook.
If you keep bumping fish before the end of your line, buy Bubbles before another Line upgrade.
