About Magnetic Catch
Magnetic Catch is a relaxed magnet fishing game in pixel art. You help Tommy hunt for a great hidden treasure by dropping a magnet into the water and seeing what comes up: mostly rusty scrap, sometimes something strange.
You clean your finds, then sell them or combine them at the crafting table into more valuable items. Heavier objects need a stronger magnet and more pulling power, so you upgrade both, and each upgrade opens new spots, from city canals and countryside lakes to forgotten ruins and a volcanic area. Clearing out the scrap slowly brings the water back to life.
The developer's demo announcement, about pulling a laptop out of the water, passed 2,900 upvotes on r/IndieDev. It's their second game. A free demo has been on Steam since 14 October 2026.
