From a quiet old pond to the lightless deep sea, a lake above the clouds, and the border between this world and the next. At the end of your line, a myth is waiting. ■ Every cast counts Tap to stop the power gauge and cast. When the float sinks and "!" appears, set the hook within a second. Then the fight begins: your reel only turns while you hold the button. Reel too hard and the line snaps; go slack and the hook slips. When the fish runs, all you can do is hold on. ■ Read the waves The water is either calm or swelling. When a big swell rises, monsters start moving — and you are guaranteed to land at least one before it settles. Some fish, like the blue whale, only bite when the sea is rough. ■ 62 species, 7 legends Crucian carp and koi to start with, then great white sharks, giant squid and oarfish. And the guardians of each water: the Pond Master, Nessie, the Kappa, the Kraken, Leviathan, the Yinglong dragon and Jormungandr. Everything you land is recorded in the field guide, along with your largest catch. ■ Catch, sell, get stronger Your catch goes into the creel first; you sell it yourself at the counter. Spend the money on nine tiers of rods and seven kinds of bait. Better tackle takes you deeper. ■ Ten fishing grounds Quiet Pond → Misty Lake → Great River → Rough Sea → The Abyss → Sky Lake → The Dark Sea. Land the legend of each place to open the next. Once you have caught everything, three endless challenge grounds open up — the Golden Spring, the Adamant Deep and Rainbow's End — where the legends return clad in gold, crystal and rainbow. ■ Made to be comfortable - Fully offline. No connection required - No ads, no in-app purchases - Progress saves automatically - Morning, noon, dusk and night change what bites. Night is the best time One rod, one piece of bait. That is all it takes to land a myth. (The game is played in Japanese.)

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Legend Angler at none against Backrooms's shown. Backrooms's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
