Bait Line

Welcome to Bait Line! One of the most popular radio-shows in all the ocean! The experienced Dr. Gill is ready to answer your calls and help you solve all your issues, with his unique charm for transmitting kindness to all fish through the sea! 

Become Dr. Gill and aid six different sea creatures with all their unique issues, problems and personality waiting to be solved! Pick between three different answers and help spread kindness (or not) to their lives. Depending on the way you interact with the different fish, the program’s ratings will increase and decrease.
