In Moonglow Bay, a fishing simulator role-playing game, players will take a role as rookie fishermen who will thread the coastline of Eastern Canada during the 1980s.

While they are engaged in its "diverse and emotionally charged" storyline, according to their website, they will also need to grab the opportunity to use the resources that the coastline is giving to them, particularly the fishes and other seafood that they will be catching, in order to earn for cash.

How to Earn Money in the Game

As mentioned earlier, players of Moonglow Bay need to earn money, or Shells, in order to buy necessary equipment both for their fishing and cooking, including several ingredients.

However, the profit that they will be earning will depend on their value, especially their cooked dishes. The prices of these dishes will be affected by what fishes and other seafood used for it.

For example, a duck-billed trout, which is worth 5 Shells, and a banana mackerel, which is worth 70 Shells, can be used in the same dish.

However, if they are used in a dish that can sold for 20 Shells, it will increase former's value, but it will decrease the latter's. Hence, they can either use it in a higher value dish, or sell it as it is.
