### 5/5 — 1 in a million

*2026-07-24*

Out of millions of apps in the App Store fishing world may be the most calming one of all. The game is well made with detailed descriptions and interesting concepts. Overall fishing world is an amazing fishing game and a break of fresh air compared to the goyslop on the App Store

### 1/5 — Language

*2026-06-26, version 2.1.1*

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-06-18, version 2.0.14*

The Best. You should add to Steam.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-06-17*

Most of the fishing games i have downloaded sucked. This one is amazing. Its a bit boring when you start but after ten minutes its peak

### 5/5 — How good

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-06-16*

No ads so fun must get 

So realistic and fun! Only glitched 2 times in a year

### 5/5 — Favourite game! PLEAE FIX ISSUE WITH CHALLENGES

*2025-05-06*

My favourite fishing game by far! Super relaxing and I’ve owned it on every phone I’ve had. 

The fishing challenges are a bit glitchy and I would love for them to be fixed! When I do things to complete a challenge there’s a 50% chance I’ll complete it and get a reward and a 50% chance the challenge will seem as if it’s completed but not give me a reward and on the lake challenge list it’ll remain dark without the gold fish medal.

### 5/5 — Great, but question

*2025-03-25, version 1.2.1*

This game is very good and has many places to fish and just is supper fun.but I have one question how to fried someone,if you can cause I feel like it wasn’t supper clear

### 3/5 — Good but one problem

*2024-12-24*

This game is pretty good but it madebme quit for one reason. If I bought something, half the time it would flippin scam me and not give it to me. This caused me to have to spend my hard earned money on this game just so I could buy the boat cuz I spent 1000 coins on it, and then it didn't give it to me🤬🤬🤬. Otherwise the game is fine. It's pretty challenging and long.

**Developer response:** Hi, sometimes there is a short delay before items show up in the game, after you make a purchase. When this happens, please wait a few moments and then refresh/reload the game, and the items should appear in your backpack as long as the charge went through (otherwise you should see your Gold/Silver total go back up). Apologies for the confusion!

### 4/5 — This is awesome 🤩!but

*2024-12-07*

I love this game it has no adds but I would like the time on visas to be shorter and I would like to be able to sell bait and chum like I can with rods otherwise it’s fun 🤩
