Hooked on History

Fish for fragments, piece together history: an adventure in art restoration.

Fish pieces of paintings from a virtual lake and solve puzzles to reconstruct historical artworks. Using controller-based fishing you engage with art details you might miss in museums, learning cultural context through interactive restoration and discovery.

Game through culture

You actively engage with cultural heritage by "rescuing" fragmented artworks from a virtual lake, transforming passive museum viewing into embodied interaction. Through fishing and puzzle-solving, you explore artistic details, textures, and symbolism while learning historical context, symbolically participating in art preservation and cultural memory.
