Description
![]()
Following a fresh trace to the whereabouts of your long lost father, you are caught in a supernatural storm. Washed ashore on a mysterious island chain, sinister shadows watch your every move as you are confronted with your familiy’s dark past.
Remnants of ancient temples bear witness to outlandish rituals and a people long gone.
The island is brimming with a primordial force and you will have to tread lightly lest it will be unleashed upon humanity.
![]()
The waters around the island are rich with unfamiliar species of fish who are very different in their demands. You will have to uncover their habitats, diets and weaknesses. Use a multitude of unique fishing rods, hooks and lures in order to drag these strange creatures to the surface.
Every fish has its unique attacks and powerful arcane energies they can channel to defeat you. While dodging your opponent’s attacks you have to drain their energies with combat abilities, debuffs and devastating finishers.

Driving your boat across the dark waters will attract ghastly sea dwellers, keen to tear apart your ship and flesh. Craft ingenious armaments and fight off the savage hordes. The Wake features a plethora of different enemy types with their individual attacks and behaviours. These enemies evolve and adapt, forcing you to refine your combat strategies and target priority. Be dauntless, for their onslaught will know neither mercy nor end.

Dissect your catch for mutated parts and scavenge the islands for resources to upgrade your gear. Perform twisted, eldritch rituals to customize your fishing rod according to your playstyle. Forge deadlier weapons and craft useful tools to dominate in fights. Strengthen your ship to withstand both enemy attacks and the unforgiving sea.

Channel the primordial energy to your advantage. Unlock a variaty of incantations to get an edge in fighting and fishing alike. Customize and upgrade them with powerful runes to bend the arcane powers to your will.

Search Interest
What this shows: Google Search trends reveal public awareness and interest over time, independent of Steam metrics. Spikes indicate moments when the game captured mainstream attention—typically around announcements, trailers, beta releases, or launch day. Compare search interest to follower growth to gauge whether marketing efforts are reaching beyond the existing gaming community. For unreleased games, rising search volume suggests effective promotional campaigns. For released games, sustained search interest months after launch indicates lasting cultural relevance. Investors should note: viral search moments don't always translate to sales, but they do indicate brand awareness that could drive future DLC or sequel success. This data helps answer "Is anyone talking about this game outside of core gaming circles?"
