I couldn’t catch the lead fish. It keeps going far away. I hate this game. ### 1/5 — User Names *2026-06-30, version 2.7* This game is hella lame. Didn’t even play it cuz I can’t even give myself a fun username. Creators of this game are soft ### 1/5 — Slowest loading *2026-06-21, version 2.7* It doesn’t even let me load in the game I’ve waited for hours and yet nothing has went up I thought this game would be good but I guess it’s not ### 1/5 — Not a good game at all *2026-05-30, version 2.7* I can’t it is not fun you have to have a faesbook account and yes I know I spelled it wrong but the fish on the preview is really like what it looks like but. It’s not as fun as everyone says it I’m never playing it again and it makes you have a really realistic profile and it has a picture of a old man and girls grow up and it’s not for me or my family it so werd that is why it’s not good ### 1/5 — Trying to find fishing games, don’t think this is the one for me *2026-05-27, version 2.7* I feel as if a lot of the things in this game are paid, and I also found that even with using all my currency to get my rod as high of a level as possible, I only get very little gain in progress when catching a boss fish. I have also noticed that a lot of the 1 star reviews for this game get the same ai generated responses, which will probably happen to mine and won’t make sense at all. Also, this is the third fishing game in a row I’ve tried where they immediately put “attractive women” at the very start of the game (and keep them there or add more) to get people to play. Try something different. These games are all duds because they’re all the same and all pay to play. ### 1/5 — Не заходит *2026-05-26* Не могу зайти в игру раньше все заходилось а сегодня захотел поиграть не заходит **Developer response:** Мы очень сожалеем, что у вас возникли проблемы с загрузкой.

Good gameplay. ### 5/5 — Crazy *2026-08-12, version 2.7* I can’t fish enough in real life so now I’m able to fish in game love it so much but maybe make it easier to get more rods but love the game keep going and updating PLS ### 5/5 — All of you read this *2026-08-07, version 2.7* So they are not updating any maps or anything because all you lame o’s can’t even surpass the game like what is your issue you better start And it’s actually quite sad you made the company start updating another fishing game when they could of been updating this one with awesome stuff there’s so many fishing locations this game has not even touched the ice berg yet so please just start completing the maps it’s not hard you don’t even need to spend money bruh f the nerds to spend to be on top there losers….. ### 5/5 — Great game, not many updates. *2026-07-28, version 2.7* This game is truly awesome, great fun mechanics, cool arcade like visuals, and awesome fish designs. My only complaint would be the lack of content update, for example the fish tank options, character cosmetics, events, etc.. The game feels like it had its moment upon release where there was more attention being paid to it, but lately it requires a bit more love. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
