About this game
“It is when our expectations are broken that we feel life the most.”
- a secret character in the game.
The fun of dying
Welcome to Anglerfish. Your secluded bar in Mols mountains. Here you will experience the true survival horror of dating, which means you will die multiple times. Every time you die, you must start the game over, but something always changes when you try again to survive your night out. Every change in your new run is handcrafted based on where and how you died. This means dying is a stimulating thing.
What will you do on your adventure?
You will try to survive your wildest night ever. To do this you must undercover the secrets hidden deep down in Anglerfish’s core by exploring every nook and cranny and solve the buried mysteries. But disturbing forcers will try to keep you from the truth, so you must be ready to fight back by blasting their heads off.
Based on a true psychological horror story
One of your friends from work is getting married. You're at his bachelor party with all of your colleagues at the bar, Anglerfish. It’s Look-a-like Thursday, so you fit in naturally with your schoolgirl uniform. You all have a friendly competition to see who will be the best man at the wedding. But your good time comes to an abrupt end, when the secrets of Anglerfish call for the last drink of the night.
Five things you should know about the game:
- You can pet the dog.
- The game only saves when you die.
- Every time you die, something changes.
- Dying can be a good thing.
- A shotgun is a great ice breaker on a date.
- Each playthrough will be a new take on the game.
- You can’t trust us.
So come with us if you want to die.

Our next game!
We can announce our next game! Security: The Horrible Nights Wishlist: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2911390/Security_The_Horrible_Nights/ We've taken it a step further with the feature that something changes when you die. "Every time you die, a new story begins." You work as a security guard at a hospital where all sorts of mysterious and scary things can happen. Your job is to use the hospital's security cameras to monitor the area. When you see a problem, you have to run out and fix it. Most often, the problem can be solved by pointing your flashlight at it and shouting at the problem. Other times, you'll need to use more drastic methods to solve problems, or just survive. We look forward to killing you again. - John & MariaRead full article on Community Announcements (Professional Villains)AnnouncementsOfficial

One last half-big update
One last half-big update before we have to move on to the next game project. You can reset your game Under the game’s option, you can now reset the game at any point. Your fishy achievements will not be deleted. Fixed bugs and small improvements Some of you have been good at finding strange and weird bugs. The ones we could recreate have been fixed. We have also done a few small improvements. So new and old players should get a slightly better experience now. Thanks for the help. New language The game can now also be played in Danish, which is our mother tongue. Apart from the fact that it is fun to have your own game in your own language, it was also a requirement we had to fulfill from the art fund that has supported the project. Thanks again to the Danish Film Institute for helping make Anglerfish a reality. Starting work on a new game We have already started our next project. We are not yet ready to reveal what we are working on. But should you be curious, you can follow us on Discord and Twitter. Discord https://discord.gg/vNn542vjhX Twitter @prof_villains A big thanks! We have tried to thank each of you personally who have helped make this project become real. If we have forgotten someone along the way, it is not intentional. We are only three people on the main team, so it is only through all your helping hands that Anglerfish has become what we hoped it could be. Thank you.
