I think this game is a blast and I’ve really enjoyed playing it along with enjoying myself during the events. This game is really fleshed out with a lot to do and a fun progression system and a lot of unlockables. However, this game also needs some improvements. For anyone who is just starting out, be warned there are ads. They weren’t really apparent but one day I was playing and all of a sudden anytime I opened a package, or a gem chest, I was forced to watch an ad. It had never happened before but it became very frustrating very fast so I gave up and begrudgingly paid for no ads. The only current prominent problem I’ve been running into since is constant freezing when I start up the game, it hasn’t been much of an issue besides being a minor inconvenience to close out the app and then reopen it. However I’ve recently come to realize that it has been robbing me of certain achievement rewards for the event due to freezing right after I claimed them, which has left me quite disheartened as there’s no way to reclaim those lost rewards. I write this review because I wish for the team behind the game to please fix this issue, as I wish to continue playing this game yet these freezing issues are making me feel less and less motivated to play knowing that all my effort might again end in vain.

This is an absolutely awesome idea for an idle game and one that i think could be done even better! My main gripes are two fold1. You can’t get more fishermen without using the premium currency. This isn’t awful, but the other fishermen are such an essential mechanic that it kinda hurts that there’s no other way to get them2. The ads and facebook connectivity are shoved down your throat. Yes, almost all the ads are optional, however, almost every random bonus and mission has an option for an ad boost. Again, not a deal breaker, but i’m just not a fan of having ads be such an integral part, and i assume late game it’s the only way to make the random bonuses worth it, but i’ll have to get back to you on that. Considering using my throwaway facebook account just to get a little bonus here and thereOtherwise, i adore the concept of a fishing idle game. Makes for a great aesthetic and makes for a calming little side project. I play a ton of idle games so i’m glad i came across this one, but i just wish i could like it more. Still, if you wanna pull a toy-blast-to-toon-blast and make something very similar but even more optimized for player enjoyment, i’d download that in a heartbeat! You have something great here and i wanna see more for sure <3

Many apps have a ad cool down, where once I’ve watched an ad willingly to get a reward, the normal actions that trigger ads won’t trigger. Idle world, for example, has this feature. This game… does not. If I watch an ad to double my reward on a crate, when the ad ends and I can hit claim, another ad plays. These ads are the type where “30 seconds maximum” is very loose, where after the 30 seconds, another 15 second clip plays, then you have to find the tiny x button while the information for the ad keeps popping up. And then there’s another one. These triggered ads don’t have a small timer before you can x out alike most unwanted ads; you have to watch the entire 45+ seconds to claim your reward. The crates come pretty frequently, too, so this happens many, many times. Oh, and if you exit out of the app and come back in to trick the system into thinking you’ve already watched the ad, at any point? You get no reward and all the crates you’ve stacked up have $0 in them now. And airplane mode doesn’t work. It’s so simple to just disable the ad that pops up when I hut claim immediately after I’ve already watched an entire ad.The game layout is great. The simple art is lovely. The mechanics are simple and easy to understand. Even the pacing of the game makes sense. Truly, a 5 star game. But the ads annoy me so, so much that I’m on the verge of deleting the game altogether.

I got this game before all the “ads” happened. I remember playing this game for hours because of the music and art style. This game was great at entertaining its audience. There weren’t any forced ads either. The only times I had to watch an ad was went I wanted a reward from it. The wheel for example made you watch an ad to receive a boost plus you could get bonus gems. This made players like myself want to watch the ads to get more from the game. This was a time of happiness. I never stopped playing the game but I did leave it alone for a week or two. When I got back however, things had changed. The minute I opened the app I was hit with an ad. This sort of surprised me since I never had an ad I didn’t click on open. Then it became way too frequent. Every time I opened a package, the side bar where you can buy things, and even the quests and news icons, I was hit with an ad. The worst part about this was I could never catch a break. Even when I watched an ad to get a reward, another ad would play right after. This really took the fun out of the game. The music and art style is still fantastic. I will always love how to play the game. But the ads have become too much and I’ve thought about deleting the game several times because of this. I hope those who read this find the game very fun to play. The ads are what is wrong with the game.
