Ten Square Games is proud to join the 2026 edition of the Green Game Jam, an annual initiative organized by the Playing for the Planet Alliance and facilitated by the United Nations Environment Programme. As part of Team Reef, Fishing Clash returns to the initiative with a new in-game activation focused on one of the world’s most valuable and vulnerable marine ecosystems – coral reefs. This year’s activation, Heartbeat of the Reef: Maldives, invites players to help restore a fading coral reef in the Maldives and support Oceana’s ocean conservation efforts.

Starting June 2, Fishing Clash kicks off Heartbeat of the Reef Week with a special Maldives Long Event available for all anglers level 15 and above. Then, on June 5, the main part of the event officially begins, bringing even more ways for players to engage with the mission.

The Fishing Clash activation invites players to help restore and reconnect with a coral reef that is losing its life, color, and rhythm. As the community progresses, the underwater world transforms from damaged and polluted into a vibrant ecosystem full of life again.

By integrating this issue into gameplay, Fishing Clash aims to raise awareness about the importance of coral reefs, promote marine restoration, and encourage players to take action through play. Through themed challenges, visible world transformation, and player participation, the event brings a real-world environmental issue to life inside the game.

Supporting ocean conservation through gameplay

As part of the activation, players can catch key species, restore coral reefs step by step, unlock new reef zones, and earn special rewards and badges. The event also features educational elements that help players learn more about coral reefs, biodiversity, and the importance of healthy marine ecosystems.

The activation is designed not only as an individual experience, but also as a collective effort. Players can compete for the title of Top Restorers, earn badges that showcase their commitment, and join forces with their clanmates, turning reef restoration into a shared competition and community mission.

The campaign will also extend beyond the game to social media and community channels. During the event, Fishing Clash will publish daily reef-related facts together with questions or riddles on Discord, rewarding the first players who answer correctly. A photo contest focused on oceans, marine life, reefs, and environmental protection will run from June 3 to June 9, encouraging players to share their own content and join the campaign beyond the game.

Advancing ocean conservation with Oceana

As part of the campaign, Fishing Clash will also support Oceana’s ocean conservation efforts. Oceana is the largest international advocacy organization dedicated solely to ocean conservation and works to rebuild abundant and biodiverse oceans through science-based policies. Through the activation, Ten Square Games will donate the resources specified in the signed donation agreement to Oceana to support Oceana’s work, connecting in-game participation with real-world efforts to protect and restore ocean ecosystems. More information is available at Oceana.org.

Vote for Fishing Clash – Player’s Choice Award

Voting for the Player’s Choice Award will be open from June 5 to June 30 as part of Green Game Jam 2026. The award recognizes the most impactful environmental activation of the year. Every vote for Fishing Clash helps amplify the message behind Heartbeat of the Reef: Maldives and reinforces the game’s ongoing dedication to protecting marine life and supporting environmental action as part of Green Game Jam. It is also a way to show how games can mobilize communities, raise awareness, and support meaningful conservation efforts beyond the screen.
