DiveHunter, the new mobile game dedicated to spearfishing enthusiasts is now ready for you! Born from the idea of an estimator and fishing enthusiast, DiveHunter was conceived and created to be a full-fledged simulator, without neglecting the playful aspect, for a new and engaging entertainment. Test your marine hunting skills in total apnea! You have 30 to 40 seconds of oxygen available to prey on and catch your fish with your inseparable rifle: the more fish you capture the more seconds of time you gain. The game includes a game of 10 apneas during which you will go to total your catch between the various half fish and one kg of weight. Based on the fish catch speed and the total weight, the system will assign you a partial and total number of stars (for each apnea). Can you do more? No problem! You can try again and have fun with DiveHunter as many times as you want.

Dive into Catch Fishies, a fast, friendly spearfishing arcade game from Frozen Crow. TWO WAYS TO DIVE • ONE BREATH — the original one-button dive. Tap to kick up, sink slow, thread the reef and catch fish by swimming into them. • OPEN WATER — swim anywhere with the floating stick, throw your spear at range, and watch your air. Surface to breathe… but boats hunt the surface. Leap clean over them. CATCH THE CATCH • Yellowtail, mahi and tuna — chain catches for up to a x5 combo • Speared at range is worth extra • Sharks, jellyfish, urchins, trawlers and speedboats want you dead BUILT TO REPLAY • Runs get faster the longer you survive • Local high scores, best chains and deepest dives • Original soundtrack with seven rotating tracks • Optional ads only — revive by choice, or remove ads forever with one purchase. Never mid-dive. No accounts required. One more breath. One more fish. One more run.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Catch Fishies at 100% against DiveHunter's 49%. Catch Fishies also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). DiveHunter's advantage is ratings volume (67 vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
