Are species tied to specific biomes or locations?

At this point, fish are tied to water depth, but predators can hunt for other fish, and when you swim or walk in the water, you will scare the fish! So watch your steps!

How does gear affect gameplay? Is it cosmetic, statistical, or both?

Gear is the most important thing in real life, and it's no different in MLF! Pick up a proper rod, reel, line, lure, bait, and evolve! Decide if you want a real challenge by catching big fish on a light rod or go sea fishing with a heavy one! But don’t be fooled, big monsters require big reels, that's the truth!

Is there a free‑roam fishing mode?

The game is all about fishing where you want and how you want. You are not limited to shore or in the water. Just jump on the boat and drive to the deep blue!

Will the game include Steam achievements?

Yes, it will! Both for catching specific fish and a few more unique ones!
