Tiny Fishing Villages – Press release

Tiny Fishing Villages – A Cosy Builder Celebrating Scotland’s Coastal Communities

Tiny Fishing Villages invites players to build a tiny Scottish fishing town and watch it grow into a thriving coastal community. This relaxing, cosy village builder focuses on community, craft, and the quiet resilience of life by the sea.

Developed solo by myself, Tiny Fishing Villages is a personal tribute to Scotland’s coastal communities – their heritage, their traditions, and the places they call home.

About the Game

Tiny Fishing Villages is a gentle village‑building experience where players begin with a handful of buildings and a small fishing fleet. Send out boats, gather resources, expand your harbour, and support the hardworking folk who keep your village alive.

Fishing is the heart of your community. It fuels your economy, feeds your people, and allows your town to grow. Players will manage their fleet, repair boats, import goods, complete contracts, and keep villagers happy as they shape the island of their dreams.

Built on the foundations of Tiny Terra Spaces – here’s a first look at prototype houses and upgrades in Tiny Fishing Villages.
