Chinook

Embark on a Journey of Survival and Discovery in the Wild Waters of the Columbia River

In this cozy and cartoony adventure, you play as a Chinook Salmon determined to complete the ancient journey upstream through the vast and varied Columbia River system. Swim against powerful currents, avoid natural and man-made obstacles, and discover hidden paths as you navigate one of nature’s most incredible migrations.

Along the way, unlock a variety of unique fish species and variants—some with special abilities and some that are just plain silly. Challenge yourself to find one of the games many endings and secrets. Try to unlock everything!

Explore serene freshwater environments, from wide gorges to narrow mountain streams, brought to life with an original soundtrack by the worst musicians in the industry (programmers). Whether you’re dodging predators, leaping salmon ladders, or hell itself, every stretch of river tells a story.
