With few prospects for a fun summer, Hal decides to join his father in the game and see what all the fuss is about. There Hal's father wants to achieve the title of "Kingfisher," given to players who catch every type of fish in the game. At the end of their first day together, they discover a contest where they can win a grand prize of $250,000 if they can catch a legendary sea creature called the Sea King, but first they need to acquire the title of Kingfisher to be eligible!Together they embark on a journey to earn the title of Kingfisher and catch the Sea King, all while avoiding the machinations of mischievous pirates, giant sea creatures and villainous sea captains. In this story you can expect:- A pirate-themed RPG world where pirates coexist with magic. Talismans allow players to infuse swords and pistols with elemental powers.  - Plenty of fishing and achievement hunting.  - Main character progresses from weak to strong.  - Plenty of stat screens as characters level up, improve skills and acquire new items, weapons, and clothing. Numbers will matter a fair deal, though strategy and skill are important too.  - Slice of Life detailing aspects of the players lives outside the game.  - Quirky characters inspired by works such as One Piece.
