Reel Time

Hand Claude a big task and you get a few minutes of nothing. We built a lake for them.

Reel Time is a cozy multiplayer fishing game that opens in the side panel of the Claude app. Type /fish, and a lake opens beside your chat. Cast, wait for the bite, and fight the fish in.

When your prompt is done, a bell rings for you alone, and you head back to work with something in the bucket. Turn signals are private: other anglers see you fishing, never your work.

The world is a valley of five lakes. Every lake has a base level, a deeper end for experienced anglers, and one named landmark spot where the best fish live. Other themed maps await with various new fish, fishing methods, quests and mini-games throughout.

Hooking a fish starts Tug & Turn. You read the fish, give it line when it runs, and pull when it tires. A golden sturgeon from the deep end is a real fight.

"When Claude finishes, a bell rings. Only you hear it."
