What Mudfish is

Mudfish is a gaming-focused VPN client for selecting a route to a game server and checking whether ping and connection quality improve. Its product page states support for 874 games and sites. Routing choices include routing only game traffic, Full VPN, HTTP and SOCKS proxy support, Server Chain, and Multi Path Mode. The homepage comparison lists 634 dedicated servers worldwide and 1,378 free public nodes; those public nodes require no credits and have no speed limit. Mudfish is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck, Android, iOS, OpenWRT, and compatible browsers. Its browser extension supports Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Whale, with full, selected-service, and PAC-rule routing. Android users can save profiles for selected apps or all device traffic, while iOS routes all device traffic. Pay Per Traffic uses credits based on data passing through a Mudfish node, counting both received and forwarded data. A $4.99 once credit top-up is shown as approximately 40.1 GB, with traffic charged at 135 KRW per 1 Gbytes. Mudfish Networks Inc. launched the service in 2011. Its privacy policy says the true IP is anonymized during VPN use and deleted after a session, while anonymous aggregate usage and device information are collected.
