Normally, games like this have a one time purchase that’s like $3 that lets you get the ad boosts without watching ads anymore, and this game does have that, but only if you pay for a $10 weekly subscription which is absolutely ridiculous ### 4/5 — Levels *2026-02-17, version 1.8.4* Enjoy playing the game, but it’s said more levels coming soon the entire 18 months I’ve been playing it, when are they actually coming? All this other stuff has been added but still no new levels ### 3/5 — Fun time killer but *2026-01-25, version 1.8.4* The game is a fun waiting room time killer but the ads are brutally long and on top of that they want 9.99 WEEKLY to get rid of ads. That’s a bit greedy ### 2/5 — Don’t buy from!!!! *2025-11-09, version 1.8.4* I bought something that the game claims is $2.99 but got charged $16 dollars ### 3/5 — Mid *2025-10-16, version 1.8.4* Just ok I don’t like losing my progress ### 2/5 — Weird rules *2025-09-28, version 1.8.4* I loved the game in the beginning but everything started to change. Specifically in the challenges…I’ve been up 3 fish and still lost. Not sure why. Contact me if you’d like a screenshot. ### 3/5 — Too much ad *2025-09-21, version 1.8.4* I don’t mind watching ads to have a bonus. But too much ads are popping from nowhere and it’s ruining the experience and even some bonus sometimes ### 3/5 — Crashing *2025-08-07* Transporters to slow, to mich fishes in pots -> App is crashing/hanging **Developer response:** Hi, please contact us at service@cyberjoygame.com with your game ID and issue details. We will assist you as soon as possible. Thank you! ### 2/5 — Events are too short *2025-07-01, version 1.8.1* The events are way too short. Otherwise game is fun. ### 2/5 — Crash king *2025-06-27, version 1.8.1* Crashes way too much. This game freezes on every level beyond 1 ### 3/5 — Don’t waste time on videos *2025-06-24, version 1.8.1* I have watched multiple videos to get extra rewards and don’t get all the rewards listed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rigged.. *2026-04-09, version 1.8.4* This game is rigged to the max, like it nice having free competition to take part in until you see you always lose after 2/3 wins to people who have 3k less power than you and worst fish it’s have no sense how someone can beat you unless it’s making you lose as it the game can make your fish worth less than the other guys for no apparent reason ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2026-01-25, version 1.8.4* I have literally never played a game with so many ads. I would say averaging 1 add every 120 seconds. So sad. Game would be fun. Cannot continue another second of self supporting greed for a mediocre game at best. Devs. Please screw right off your greedy money hungry turds ### 1/5 — All Ads *2025-12-20, version 1.8.4* Everything is about the ads you can’t earn anything unless you have ads. Progression is slow unless you click on the ads. All click bait. ### 1/5 — Waste of over a year *2025-11-20, version 1.8.4* No way to transfer to new phone. iCloud backup doesn’t work, discord is shut down. No support, no Game Center, no way to link to anything to recover, and no customer service ### 1/5 — Versus fishing *2025-11-15, version 1.8.4* The way that the versus fishing works makes zero sense in the world. There are fish that I may have that the opponent doesn’t have that I then proceed the absolutely get destroyed in competition for zero reason. If I have better stats and have a specialty fish there’s zero ready that I lose by 100,000. This game makes zero sense and deserves zero stars and is lucky I can’t give that rating. 0/5 ### 1/5 — DELETED *2025-10-31, version 1.8.4* Played for 150 plus days 52k plus power and accounts gone after being on an hour earlier all the time and effort wasted not worth the risk ### 1/5 — Versus fishing *2025-08-21, version 1.8.2* The way that the versus fishing works makes zero sense in the world. There are fish that I may have that the opponent doesn’t have that I then proceed the absolutely get destroyed in competition for zero reason. If I have better stats and have a specialty fish there’s zero ready that I lose by 100,000. This game makes zero sense and deserves zero stars and is lucky I can’t give that rating. 0/5 ### 1/5 — Adds *2025-07-14, version 1.8.1* I purchased too remove ads and I’m still forced to watch ads for x2 bonus and I also purchased the elite pack, but then I had option for lifetime package I also bought that what’s the difference because I’m not seeing any and what does the lifetime package give? ### 1/5 — Clone *2025-06-14, version 1.8.1* Same game as about 100 others out there. Click upgrade until you can press the bigger upgrade button. Wiggling icons asking you to spend money just so you don’t have to be even more bored than you already are. ### 1/5 — Beware VIP is weekly and not perm. *2025-05-20, version 1.8.1* Also no ads are extremely misleading. You still get ads just not the forced ones. Extremely misleading and predatory. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-14, version 1.8.5* You’ll find out that ALL of the idle games will want you to pay to remove ads. Either that or uninstall the game. Two choices. Not many games out there that will allow you to play for free. Just sayin. ### 5/5 — Fisherman glitch out *2026-07-26, version 1.8.5* Please fix the glitch but a fun to play ### 5/5 — Quality *2026-04-11, version 1.8.4* This game is fun! You upgrade your people and get diferent angles. How to play: If you want to move get your 2 fingers and do it to different angles. Upgrade your bate. Upgrade speed for the people ### 5/5 — Fishing Frenzy *2026-03-10, version 1.8.4* I’ve just downloaded this game and it looks like it’s gonna be a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend it. ### 5/5 — Yes it’s perfect *2025-08-10, version 1.8.2* Just relaxing and addictive great game! ### 5/5 — Fire game *2025-08-05, version 1.8.2* Best idle game I have played ### 5/5 — Great way to pass time *2025-07-29, version 1.8.2* So far so good ### 5/5 — Traduction *2025-06-30* Miss traduit en français par mademoiselle. C’est bien évidemment le mot raté qu’il faudrait. Ah, la traduction google… ### 5/5 — Super *2025-06-23* Nice game,more updates pls ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2025-06-14* Não precisa gastar, só jogar --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
