Gameplay spans four different lakes,each with a distinct style and its own unique set of fishes. Can you catch them all?
Review: For anyone who played and loved Sega Fishing is a VR fishing game that really does put the joy back into fishing games! You are sent on a mission to repopulate an aquarium and to do that you have to complete a series of challenges and missions. While it might not be as fast paced as Sega Fishing, or as serious as the Rapala series it is somewhere in the middle, a sort of sweet spot happy place. With a good arcade style mix and a nice slow learning curve. This is how fishing games should be, not sat at the side of a river in the rain.
Once you start to get into this game you will soon lose hours at a time as you try and catch bigger and bigger fish. While the script is a little dodgy the graphics and gameplay are both amazing. If you love your fishing games this is a must buy, and for the rest of us, it’s a fun app to waste a few hours on.
