Casting Away 4+

It’s a fun game at it’s core and the graphics are really beautiful. I got my husband hooked on this game and he already is a higher level than I am. Issues I have for the developers are that when I get the daily rewards and I get a pizza or a bbq skewer, I don’t know where they go! The food buff is not activated, and they are not at my house (I have to buy the food if I want to eat it). That’s the main issue I am having. The fishing is getting a little bit old because money is hard to get and then you can’t level up your rod to catch bigger fish. Also, i feel like I shouldnt lose my bait if I didn’t catch a fish?? Nothing ate it so it makes more sense to keep it.

Well, this game was extremely fun, but is currently unplayable. For the first few days, it worked really well. Then it broke and only half of the touch input works. It’s impossible to play in this state.

The game is quite fun at its core. When I first got it, I fished quite a bit, unlocked multiple upgrades, and even unlocked the second type of boat and shore to fish from. The core gameplay is a lot of fun, you cast a line out and then catch any fish that gets close to the bait. You can then use that fish as bait, which will allow you to catch bigger fish. Catching fish gives you experience and currency, and bigger fish are worth more, which facilitates more experience and currency, but in order to get those fish, your gear needs to be at a certain level, and these upgrades are facilitated by the currency you get from fishing. Fishing gets a bit tedious, as you catch anything near your bait regardless of what level it is, so you either have to spend the currency you earned on an expensive add on, or farm one area like crazy. Still, it’s a fun game and I really wish I could play it right now.

Don’t get me wrong on the title, Casting Away is an amazing game. I liked every detail and gameplay of this game, I enjoyed every bit of this game. I deleted the game because it broke on me. When I would go to my farm, I would try to produce an egg, ham and milk. It never made me wait for it, I just instantly got the item. I’m totally fine with that, gives me a huge advantage to the game. Then I would go and fish, I would cast my rod and catch a fish. Then the option to carry or use as bait would come up. I would try to click on either one but nothing would happen. Then since there’s no option to opt out the screen I have to close the application. Once I reopened it the same issues occurred. This forced me to delete the game unfortunately, and since I was so far into the game I didn’t want to restart. Hey I had fun while it lasted, I still do recommend this game though. I hope the this issue can be resolved so other players can fully enjoy the game!
