### 1/5 — Game sucks

*2026-05-24*

Too many ads I hope the App Store deletes this from the store get a better game designer I miss deadliest catch game it was the best

### 1/5 — More game, less ads

*2026-05-05*

This games is heavy on the ads. They’re all long ads with no skip. It feels like I’m watching more ads than playing the game

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2025-07-28*

One of the poorest designed games I have ever seen.  The ads are unbearable.  It’s literally 8 minutes of ads for every minute of gameplay.  Absolute garbage app.

### 1/5 — Officially a bad game

*2025-07-11*

The first time I tried to play it would have a black screen and then it would kick me off the game and then the only 
Game development team that is just a bunch of people that don’t know how to design a game is the team that has been the most unusable game ever I don’t think this game will be able to make any more money because of that team

### 2/5 — Could be awesome, but sadly falls short.

*2025-04-14, version 1.0.1*

Everything is VERY expensive. You buy a crab licence, traps, bait, floats and line, then you have to upgrade your boat and go fishing but you can’t because you don’t have enough to buy fuel. You can only borrow $1000 from the bank and that’s at 15%, so you have to watch ads. Then you need a lobster licence which is another 8000. So 8 more ads. 

Fishing is very clunky and lots of levers to pull and nothing really makes sense. 

Music is AWFUL and you cannot turn it off. Even if the volume is zero music still plays. And you can’t seperate music and sound effects.

### 3/5 — Good but one BIG problem

*2025-01-24, version 1.0.1*

Whenever I’m in the middle of a fishing session it says “congratulations, mission name done and it wastes everything and it’s so annoying, please fix it

### 1/5 — Worst game I ever saw

*2024-10-10*

Every time I go back to sell crab or lobster it’ll just say bad crab resorted in the stack just the worst game ever. Why would I download this stupid game it’s a horrible game. There’s a lot could be a better game. It just crashes as soon as you get your butt in there and you actually have to pay for a boat real money, I’m not dealing with that. Just know I do not like this game.

### 1/5 — Won’t work

*2024-09-11*

After start it’s slow

### 1/5 — Awful

*2023-12-26*

Doesn’t load much less work disgusting performance.

### 1/5 — Crab fishing simulator

*2023-05-11*

Your game is full of bugs can’t use the crane and you go through fuel to fast.
