NPCs

Overview

NPCs are all throughout Fisch and can be found at each and every main island. They all serve various purposes ranging from simple lore to core parts of the game, such as the merchant. Although some are less useful than others, they still help each island feel alive despite their simple dialogue.

Islands

Every Island has its own NPCs with some even at multiple locations. (Image credits from Trello wiki)
