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 call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BurstShoot at none against Catch Fishies's 1. BurstShoot also leads on ads (none vs shown). Catch Fishies's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
