Fishing Frenzy, one of the larger blockchain games on Ronin Network by reported users and revenue, is shutting down after its developer said it failed to find product-market-business fit.
Uncharted, the developer behind Fishing Frenzy, said in a June 15 post on X that both the studio and game will cease operations. Game servers are scheduled to shut down on June 25 at 2 am UTC, the team added.

- Sky Mavis, the developer of blockchain game Axie Infinity and core contributor to Ronin, announced a strategic collaboration with Fishing Frenzy in April 2025, calling it the first Sky Mavis and game studio alliance.
- At the time, Sky Mavis said Fishing Frenzy had reached a 50,000 peak daily active addresses after moving to Ronin, driven more than 300,000 installs in less than a month.

BlockchainGamer.biz, a gaming industry outlet, pointed out that Fishing Frenzy had sustained about 25,000 daily active users and generated more than $1 million in revenue.
What users get back
Uncharted said USDC packages are no longer available, while FISH, the game's Ronin-based token, is now spend-only and untradable. The team also said Karma scores, the system used to measure user contributions and staking activity, have been open-sourced for other teams and partners.
In a follow-up post, Fishing Frenzy said it had already distributed $62,845 USDC to the community based on Karma scores and refunded $7,021 USDC for in-game purchases made since the Chapter 3 launch on May 14, excluding diving.
The team also said USDC from the FISH and USDC liquidity pool would be redistributed to the community and stakers, while Proof of Distribution rewards would be distributed by Sky Mavis based on Karma scores.
