Publisher Baltoro Games has announced that Isteries Under Lake Ophelia will be launching on Switch eShop very soon – June 10th, in fact!
The game itself is all about fishing; as a young boy, you’ll be spending your time at Lake Ophelia in search of over 30 different types of fish to catch. You’ll be collecting new rods and lures and turning your little fishies into delicious meals with the game’s cooking mechanic.
We can’t help but feel like the game is basically an expanded take on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time’s fishing mechanic, and you know what, we’re all here for it! Even the visuals and overall presentation simply screams Ocarina of Time. Whether it retains the same level of charm is another matter entirely, of course.
Here are a few screenshots to give you a taste of what the game looks like:
With a price of $5.49 on the NA eShop, it’s likely the game is fairly limited in scope, so once you’re done catching all the unique types of fish, chances are you’re done. Still, it looks like a nice little homage to Zelda’s fishing game, and you won’t have to go trawling through any dungeons to get there!
Are you up for a bit of retro fishing, or are you more likely to just stick to Zelda for the time being? Let us know!
