Hop n' Hook is a platforming-fishing game set across three distinct zones, built around movement, exploration, and collection.  You play as Hoppe Jr., using a fishing rod that doubles as a grappling hook. Swing across gaps, scale cliffs, and cast into remote ponds to reel in over 50 unique fish. Some are simple. Others fight back—pulling you into short, reactive boss encounters that break the calm with bursts of tension. The world is open and layered with secrets. Optional quests and side paths reward players who take their time, while platforming challenges and precision grappling keep movement fast and satisfying. There’s no combat. No timers. Just a steady rhythm of hopping, casting, and exploring a world that quietly unfolds as you go.
