Creatures of the Deep Reviews

by Motodude12345

One of the most stingy games I have ever played. You essentially are required to pay for premium currency to play this game. As well as just waiting around several days to finish the buildings. There’s not even an option to pay real money to speed it up, so you’re literally just waiting days to collect a couple scarce planks per day, for seemingly no reason at all. It would make way more sense to actually be able to earn the planks through gameplay. Basically be prepared to mindlessly fish for no apparent reason, and for no actual gain since it costs gems to buy anything important. Just a map to Great Lakes (which you should have already) costs 40 gems. You can only earn 1 to 2 gems PER DAY. There’s also a wheel you can spin with the possibility of winning a few items, but between each item is an EMPTY space. So be prepared to win nothing from that 50% of the time. On top of that it costs 100 coins to go fishing? So each time you come back to sell with the standard bag size, it negates half or more of your profit. Essentially just doubling the grind for coins. Nothing in this game makes any sense.

I love the game. LOVE it. But had my ability to advance cut off because I can’t make any in-app purchases. I purchased gems twice by mistake after thinking the first transaction didn’t go through and requested a refund on the second transaction. They gave me the refund but immediately after and ever since then buttons to purchase gems have been grayed out in the store. I tried reaching out to app support and did all the standard solutions they gave: closing out CreaturesoftheDeep , deleting and reinstalling, double checking that I had the most up to date version. But after a couple emails back and forth, they just sent me a link to a page saying it’s probably my bank not allowing international transactions. But if so, why was I able to make purchases previously? Something just isn’t right and it’s sad because I’m someone willing to pay money for the game.

UPDATE: developer has responded but they clearly don’t understand my issue. I got the refund for the purchase I made in error. The problem is that since then, I’m unable to make purchases. Even though I had no issues prior to that.

This game is so frustrating. I honestly really enjoy some aspects like the idle fishing, but the game really puts a ton of emphasis on catching the monsters of each level. Yet, they are nearly impossible to catch. I’ve been playing this game almost a month. I’ve spent real money on gems to buy the special fishing pole and special monster bait and “luck”. I’ve read how tos on catching the level 1 monster and I’ve hooked him twice in hours and hours of game play, but both times he immediately got away before I could even really attempt to reel him in. The first time I got him on the line was level 2 and then again just now at level 6.

This game could be made better if the focus wasn’t so hard on impossible to catch monsters and if parts weren’t so skewed. Like you have to buy a new fishing pole roughly every 45 minutes to an hour of game play and a semi decent pole is $1000. Each trip to a place to fish is $100 and the average fish/piece of trash on paradise island is $50 and the average trash in the Great Lakes is $25 and the average fish is around $75 so with only 5 bag slots you are getting $250 a trip so $150 after you factor in the return trip and basically all that needs to be saved for your next fishing pole.

At the end of my 3 weeks I deleted the game. It was enough for me.

Sure it is supposed to be relaxing, but everything takes sooooo long. Progression in this game is like watching grass grow. Also need a bit more instruction for catching and identifying new/rare fish. I’ve been going around the same map for days fishing at all times of day using all the techniques the game has taught, but only catch the same types of fish or garbage. Special baits cost red gems which are terribly slow to earn unless you want to swipe your card to buy them. Also inventory space is abysmal. Going between the area where fishing is allowed and back to home base is nearly nonstop because there is such little space.

I wish this game had some more engaging design or balance it out differently so it is at least fun even if it does take a little while to progress. As it stands right now, there is nothing to do except circle the same areas in vain catching the same fish with little to no reward. The audio and visuals are beautiful, but that’s about all this game has going for it.

by DavidDepape

Been playing every day since just a couple days after release. Have purchased several IAPs. Still haven’t caught Shredder. All buildings fully unlocked, all areas unlocked. Frankly it gets boring at this stage. 12 more days until a tournament starts, that’s lame. Progression is painfully slow. This game needs a major update to add new content, needs to expand the existing areas beyond the current boundaries. Needs to pay more for caught fish. A titanium rod should last a lot longer. Day:night cycle seems to run off real time which means you might never have the chance to catch a certain fish based on your schedule. Maybe 4 hours day then 4 hours night would help with that. Basic bait works much better than the nearly useless monster bait. Lots of updates with no details provided and as far as I can tell nothing has actually changed. Must be bug fixes and optimization, but nothing new for the gameplay. I’m less enthusiastic than I was previously. No more purchases until thing improve. Think I’ll delete app and check back in several months.

I got excited when I randomly found this game but so far I am highly disappointed. Leveling up takes so much work. There’s very little to do right off the bat. I use gems for luck but still catch the same fish. Quests are few and far in between. You need wood to make a new area at your dock but you get like 3 a day. I played “Tides, a fishing game” a few months back and that was the game that got me into fishing games but I completed it in a month or 2 and they haven’t updated it or added anything new so I stopped playing. This game needs a lot more to keep players interested. There also needs to be a missions log in your phone to keep track of your current mission/goals. That should of been an obvious feature but it isn’t. Some sales for new players like wood bundles, poles, boats, etc would be a nice feature. I do like there’s no disruptive ads….. I think that’s about it. This game has real potential but right now it’s a flop. Sorry devs.

by Hdjsiiwjajs

This game has lots of possibility but it’s so frustratingly slow and low reward for the amount time you have to spend. The rarer fish are literally rare. Even if you manage to catch few and sell, it’s not much profit cuz your rod breaks after certain casts. There are 3 types of rods but you can only buy/use one at a time and if you buy a new rod while having a rod, the previous ones disappear. ??? like why can’t i have all three rod in my inventory and use whichever i like? And the buildings..lol there’s like no info about them. Like what’s is for, why do i need it? And to build a building you need tonss of material(wood) but you only get 8 or less ? material a day…only if you have all maps unlocked. Plus there’s no other way of getting material. So you have to login every day for 5,6 days just to unlock a building you don’t even know what its for. Plus i just few coins(which i spent hours) while buying rods cuz network error. Aint no way i am going back after that. Thank you.

Need to have the fishing poles last longer, when your basic stick pole last just as long as the 1000 coin one or higher that is a huge problem. I love to fish and I know it’s a game but this isn’t right for a new 1000 coin or higher to break after several catches and it does. I have had my real pole I fish with and it has lasted me for almost 10 yrs and it is of good quality. I know why you do this, but still isn’t right to your consumers.
There is circle around your boat as you fish you can’t see the whole circle and you miss the larger fish sometimes.
When you do projects in the games to find this or that you can never find what they are asking for, but when your not doing one of those tasks you find them all day long, what gives?
Not saying to make it easier, but drop a small hint.
Putting these issues aside it is a fun game, if you decide to fix these issues it would be appreciated.

Hello, me and my friend got this game and we are a bit annoyed about it so first when me and my friend are trying to play together and find each other in the same place but we have different time lines in the game like her time line is night and mine is day so we can’t find each other and it’s really annoying and another thing that’s bugging me and my friend is that every time we try to use the helicopter it always takes our money I mean it’s kinda understandable that we have to pay for a service to go fishing but it’s also annoying because what if we don’t have enough money to get in the helicopter and you need the helicopter to go fishing for money what would you do then just stay on your island forever. Another thing is (idk if you can fix this ) but my friend she was on her private island and this random dude joined and said that he was one of the game developers and asked her for her info or tips for the game (info as in information about the game not like birthdays or address ) but she was not able to like free chat so she could not tell them and she thought they might be a fake but then how did they join her island and do free chat 🫣😅

-I hope you understand what’s happening and try to fix it
-sincerely me

by Conejo🎣

I recently got the game and started the first mission which is catching captains old phone. Which i did, but when i caught it i closed my app because i had to something important and now i cant catch the old phone again. I’ve tried 3 days in a row and still have not caught the phone. It is still marked on the ocean and the captains boat still tells me to grab his phone. This is a pretty unfair bug and frustrates me because i cant even finish the first mission to unlock all the others. Please fix this or if maybe you can erase my data and let me start over that’ll work, if its possible.

by Jweaver1982

This game is gorgeous and very relaxing. Controls are simple and intuitive. If I had to have one gripe about the game it would be the lack of directional narrative! One of the quest is to catch a particular fish that only comes out at night in the northern area. I have spent every diamond I have on premium fish bait that’s used for that fish and still have gotten no closer to catching it!! It has made me so frustrated with the game that I almost deleted it! Developers have to remember that kids are playing these games. Well if my grown tale cant find and catch the fish then clearly younger players without access to money are having the same issue! They need to make quests a lot clearer as to where to go and what not.

by Cotner

I love the art and most of the features. It got me hooked when i thought it was just a relaxing collection game. Oh no you soon find the gatcha mechanics in the use of fish food to lure in rare and monster fish. Which rarely if ever work. And if you do manage to lure one on your line you had better have the ability to see into the future for the bite. You wont be fast enough to click 90% of the time. Wasted 100’s of gems on those stupid things. You got me devs. What i initially found an awesome relaxing game just ends up frustrating me now. Will give you a little time to update to make it easier to hook a fish. If not it just ends up in the delete pile. Along with any of the cash i would have given you.

by Starman82

So far the game has a cool concept but I can only handle bite sized sessions because it gets real boring catching the same fish and spending all the money coming back to the fishing area. I can’t remember all the tactics of catching certain fish. I don’t know when to use the available items and what they are for. I’m at 24% on the first fishing area and I keep fishing and nothing new is happening. It gets boring. But I am going to keep this on my phone and play it time to time because it is fun at times. Also the wood required to build upgrades is too much for the amount of time you actually find wood. It means you have to play the game a LoT if you want to find the wood. I also don’t remember to play at night when I think different fish may appear. But I wouldn’t say change that feature where daylight means daylight in the game. I’ll be seeing ya.

by Ririburgess

I’ve been playing for about 3 weeks now and I’ve found myself playing it almost everyday.. it’s definitely a slower start but I don’t mind to much. I love to fish irl and obviously the game is different from the real experience.. but I think it’s really fun and soothing.

My only complaints so far is the cost of bait, I don’t know I just think for how much it takes to get gems it’s a high price.. Second, the amount of wood that spawns with how many you need to unlock everything. I wish the trees grew back a little faster or there were a couple more trees you’re able to chop down. I guess it’s supposed to be like that but I wish it was at least a couple more trees. Third, proably my highest complaint,, I wish there was a map of where you can catch certain fish more.. I’ve been stuck on finding this octopus for days and it’s getting annoying.

Other then that I really like this game and I’m gonna continue to play and finally move onto the next island after the octopus of course..

by BuddyTheElf12445679

I like almost everything about the game. The one big thing I love about it is the atmosphere and noises. When it is at night in the game, at the home island, you can still hear the birds chirping, and it kind of ruined the night atmosphere for me. If you could maybe change that to the cricket noise that would be nice. Also, I felt like designing the character is kind of weird, because you design the face thing instead of your character, even though the cosmetics still show up on the character. It would maybe be nice if you could just design the 3D character that is in the game. Also, I noticed if you break your rod, and you have to ride the helicopter back home, it still shows that you have a rod holding onto the helicopter. Maybe you could change that? These are Just a few things I thought would help the atmosphere of the game.

by ApolloShots

I like a lot of aspects of the game, the art style the way to play and the leaderboards. But this game has lots of possibilities. I wish I could play offline because if I am traveling and lose signal for a second the has to reload and most of the time you lose your fish. Wood is too difficult to acquire maybe add a choice to mission if you would like to receive wood or coins. Wish there was a fish leaderboard for more than just the standard fish. Wish you could store one or two rods on you so when a rod breaks you can keep fishing if you don’t want to go straight back to the island to buy a new one. Maybe make your rod more customizable to what you want to catch besides just lures add stats for them some better for catching certain fish. Will update review with more play time. Just finished getting all 15 materials and paying to build it and I have to wait till the next day to use it I don’t like it after waiting to get the materials which took a couple days. I’ve progressed enough in the game to where I want to catch some of the night fish like the legendary fish in the first area but find it difficult because the time for night in the game is not long enough I wish it either started earlier in the day or stays night until late morning currently it is only 8:00 pm to 4:00 am which I feel is way to short please extend night time.

by Boogerman420

I feel like it takes way too long to progress in the game for it to be as slow and Easy going as the game is it just leads to being super boring and repetitive with no fun or exciting content. It’s almost like it intentionally keeps the very few fun things about the game locked away by hours of grinding to keep you from finding out just how little there is to the game.

By no means do I mean to take away from the games relaxing nature, I only mean to point out the fact of the economy of the game keeps you from progressing in the early game. With the limited backpack space, and having to choose between fish and resources in those limited spots. Then you have to pay 100 gold just to return to the fishing zone which takes 90% of your profit forcing you into a slow monotonous grind for very very limited reward. If I could suggest anything it would be to up the xp reward for catching fish and lower the price to return to the island. I find the concept of the game very cool it’s just hard to continue playing day after day and having no new content to look forward to.

by Asherum

Loving the game. Fun to play with a slow start up. Many trips you will barely break even until you get the boat dock/ upgrade station and upgrade you storage capacity. That being said I lost all the free lumber you get at your island apparently due to a bug. I logged out of the game, came back later and all the lumber disappeared. That caused me to farm wood for a few more days than normal to unlock what I basically would of gotten for free during the first 2 days. This ruined the experience a bit but I continued playing since so many people posted great reviews. You also should save your gems the maps don’t really add much in there current state and a GPS would really make them worth buying(IE. you buy each map to make the GPS device find quest givers and a fish finder that reveals the location of the “boss” fish on each level). Keep up the good work Devs!

by Millikenpe

This game is fun and quick to learn. You pick up how to play quickly and can get a strategy together to accomplish a lot of the tasks. The economics of the game are little unbalanced, since it seems difficult to make enough money at first, and then you have more money than necessary and not enough rubies. I like the idea of the bait and the luck mechanic, but I wish there was more information about how lucky the different baits were. Similarly, it would be cool if the boat improvements could also result in minor skill improvements or catch quantities. You have a bag to fill, but you’re also on a boat. The bag shouldn’t be the only hindrance. I wish you could glean more about when to catch some species without needing to catch them first; like maybe a character in each location can be bribed to tell you where/when to find each one. Because otherwise you have no clue how those play out. Or at least I don’t! Lol. The game is a lot of fun with some minor suggestions to make it that much better. Cheers on a good job!

by Tengu J

I really enjoy the game, however I’m starting to think the snake oil they sell you (monster bait), is just a ploy for sell tactics. I’ve yet to catch a sea monster…. Also I wish I had known that I could keep fish and other treasures that I find in the storage shed you have to collect wood for. I would’ve been saving up for that before the clans or trophy room. Also would’ve been more interesting if you had tsunami’s whenever your searching for the elusive shark in the first chapter of the game. Hence the choppy waves and bubbles, just a thought. Overall the game is nice change to everyday life. I like to play it on my iPad more just because I feel like it’s more detailed than my tiny screen on my iPhone SE. also maybe just a couple of things, that kinda bug me, customizing my boat. I wish it didn’t cost so much gems…. That’s where they getcha on it. Roughly going to cost ya $40 to make it look like a tiny pirate ship or even better the langskip. I don’t mind paying a little for nicer things but I’m not gaining much from it except aesthetic value. Give us a crane or a fish radar something we can actually use for catching or hauling up treasure. That would be awesome!!! Maybe I’m asking for too much from a simple yet beautiful game. Either way it’s looking at, gotta have some patience too. It’s not a fast paced game.

Hello i just wanted to start by saying creatures of the deep is a gorgeous game with tons of potential. Because of the slow nature of the game theres a lot of waiting and staring at your phone which becomes grueling on the eyes and a noticeable time commitment. Id definitely suggest some kind of communication like a voice chat thru the radio so people can chat and learn from each other whilst fishing. At the very least a chat system within clans and maybe even a world chat would profit the game substantially. Another aspect that could use a tweak would be the fishing. I find myself squinting at my little bobber for long periods of time waiting for the slightest twitch, some kind of bar above the bobber to show when its getting hit would help and maybe an increased sound for when a fish is hooked. One other aspect of the game that could increase player interaction is a boat upgrade system where you could make your vessel faster moving with sails/ motor upgrades (the sails could also bring a wind system into the game making it like realistic sailing). I find myself deleting and redownloading creatures of the deep coming back for the graphics, design and calmness then leaving for the repetitiveness and time put in for seemingly nothing.

by RuffArtist

I love this game and it shows huge potential. First and foremost the art style of the game is very attention grabbing works perfect for this type of game, I also love the mechanics of the game very simple straight to the point makes it easy for new players to catch on and get it pretty quickly. I can’t wait to sink in more hours. Here’s where I have problems when i’m accepting a quest I find that I kinda just quickly accept and try and go do the quest but forget what i’m doing and can’t see my objectives anywhere like I think the phone is a great place to hold that stuff. Also a MAP would be amazing for where things are at I know that it’s a small playing area but I forget where certain spots are at and would just love to view a map instead of riding around the whole area. Please I beg you guys to continue down a path that isn’t money hungry this game can be amazing if you just take the time and care to develop it the right way and from my own personal experience of game development I see to many games fall crash and burn due to greedy development styles. Take into account what fans want set aside what are actually good ideas and what aren’t. Thanks anyway!

by A Lil Organization Pls

The only reason i can’t give this a 5 star review is there should be like a map of each area & where you can find fish you need & you don’t get much help. Also, there should be a store at each destination instead of spending half your earned money on the helicopter ride to get back to your destination. Those are my biggest complaints. Otherwise, the graphics are excellent, the music & sound effects & I like the missions to give it more purpose

by Kaididdlehopper

I really enjoy this game. It is very relaxing just like real fishing. However it’s hard figuring things out sometimes. And as best I can tell there’s nowhere to get help. The notebook gives no explanation for your quest. The only thing it tells you is who the person is and which area they’re in. I don’t know if there are specific ways that are better to fish for creatures or trash as opposed to catching fish. And you’re kinda just left hanging wondering which method you should try. The epic Baits and monster Baits don’t work that I know of. and the fishing poles take no time to break which is very sad considering how much they cost. I like the game but it needs improvement. And I’m sure it will be worked on. I hope. Because even though the fishing experience is relaxing the things that are missing are frustrating.

by Lilz23456

The game is very beautiful. In the beginning, you meet an older sailor that teaches you the intro to the game. You then meet this woman who challenges you to catch various fish. You explore different fish depending on the time of day. There is plenty of ways to earn gems and coins, so it is not a cash-grab game. The music is calming, which i’m glad because you have to have some patience with the game to catch more rare fish. All of these details makes it a great game; however, I do wish the developers could make a noise whenever the fish is caught, because I react better with sound rather than just seeing the tiny bob go underneath the water. I understand that is a part of the patience aspect of the game, but it’s a suggestion. Highly recommend !

by Callsign: None

I don’t usually do reviews, but this game is easily one of my favorites. The art style is fantastic, the music is great, the mechanics are challenging but not impossible, and there is a good deal of progression and enjoyment. This game probably has the best progression I’ve seen of any game. If you’re smart with your money, you can advance pretty quickly, but not quickly enough to just blaze through the game. You get to enjoy discovery in new areas and paying money isn’t required. Heck, I haven’t even had to see any ads besides the optional one for the chest. This really is a wonderful game. The only downside I’ve seen is that it does cost coins to travel to fishing spots so be smart with your money. Making it isn’t hard either, but just be sure you’re not splurging on bait or anything. This game is remarkable!

by Jackjack97

This game is very relaxing have some very good taste in music but the only thing is for players that are not that patient, I’m warning you now it will take you up to 30 minutes just to complete the quest with item finding. For example I timed myself with one of the quest on Costa Rica for finding coconuts it took me 38 minutes to see my first coconut another 17 minutes for second. If you are here to relax and just want to fish don’t bother doing quest they made item finding very very difficult. Same thing with sea monsters spent 34 gems on monster bait just for me to take 48 minutes to find one. Good luck finding wood planks to set up your island! There is maybe 8 a day total in all 4 maps. I really wanted to give 1 star to this game for the lack of items to be found but the graphics and music makes up for. Hopefully the developers will make quest easier for players who wants to level up and get rewards

by Buttnut...

Definitely very visually appealing game as you explore and take in the various environments. Looking forward to future updates in the regard for sure. The day/night cycle and having to explore and search for the various fish is super fun. If you are hoping to make tons of gold fast, this might not be for you as you’d be robbing yourself of the relaxing fishing experience by trying to hurry through the games content. Listening to the waves as you cast and wait is so much fun and very nice. I do hope more relaxing music will be added as others have mentioned. Music for different times of the day and for different environments would be super cool.

Overall, this game is a fantastic fishing experience that I hope will continue to be supported for a long while. I haven’t gotten into the clan activities yet, but it seems like there is some sort of “battle” or competition. I’d love it if you would consider some cooperative activities as a clan that might not be super highly competitive as well to compliment the game’s already chill feel. Thank you for one of the best games currently on my phone.

by ZRayRayz

I’m giving this game a 5 star rating because it really has no flaws. It’s relaxing, accommodating for seniors, and is just overall relaxing but also competitive. The game has very little micro transactions, so you won’t have to worry about ads and such. The game is immersive and simple, so pretty much anyone can play it. Me and my fiancé even started a clan together and we can join each others world and do competitions together. The last big pro of this game id like to harp on, is that although the game is simple, it never gets boring. There’s so many worlds and fish, and only certain fish appear at certain times of the day. (night or day)

I just merely have some suggestions. I’m having a hard time recruiting members into my clan as it’s only ever me and my fiancé in the world. I also wish there was maybe a little more too do, as I basically log on, do my daily quests and get my wood and log off. I’m not bored, I just really want to grind more then I can.
The last suggestion i have, is some more customizable things. Like maybe a pet, or trail that you leave in the water would be so cool. Or maybe even special bobbers and effects when you catch a fish! But overall I love this game and I’d recommend it to anyone :)

Go USAF!

by Shlaskowski

This game is fantastic and anyone looking for a relaxing way to pass the time needs to look no further. It’s got fun fishing missions, seasonal changes, and cute eco-friendly ways to gain karma. And you can join groups and work together to get points!

Some things I would like to see in the future would be a friend feature, where you could group up and play together. And a way to see / reacts to what others in the lobby, or at least friends in the lobby, are catching. So you could congratulate a nice catch! And I would LOVE to see a chat feature with friends you play with. But in the spirit of keeping things very relaxing and chill, it could be a quick chat thing where you just choose from preloaded text. But then!! You could add way more unlockables like quick chats and correlating things. Your little text pops up in a speech bubble, so you could unlock different bubble colors or types. Maybe different fonts for the chats too. Extra emotes? I think this would add a little more to the multiplayer appeal of the game, as well as maybe cultivating more good vibes. I think it adds fun to be able to congratulate someone on a great catch, and everyone loves to be hyped up!

*edited after newest update*
Love the addition of being able to share wood with friends. Once you’ve maxed things out, it’s VERY nice to be able to give it up to buds who need it.

by Happguy

Firstly, I very rarely review apps and mobile games. But after logging quite some time in this game I wanted to write one for anyone thinking of taking it for a spin.

I believe that users should keep in mind the goals and style of games when they play them. Creatures of the Deep is a relaxing low effort fishing game, with a surprising amount of depth and light-heartedness.

The Devs did a wonderful job creating the atmosphere. The art style is unique and fun, I always enjoy watching my fisherman and his boat dangy when riding the helicopter. And the cartoon fish are colorful and unique. There is also a myriad of areas to unlock that get larger as the game progresses with unique areas and little nuances to see and discover.

The devs paired this art style with great music that is soothing and relaxing. It fits with a fishing games requirements of patience wonderfully. The result is a relaxing experience that I’ve found very pleasing and fun.

Next, I’ve enjoyed the progression. Fun NPC characters, quests, and discovery to love the player along through areas and learn about the monsters that inhabit these areas. I always like to see incorporation of ways for a free-to-play player to get in game currencies. And the daily gem quests allow for players to get gems to upgrade things without spending money.

I highly recommend this game for anyone looking for a relaxing fishing experience with a fun art style and great music.

by LubedDigit

First and foremost this is a fishing game at heart. It is calming, slow and very reminiscent of how it is to feel casting out a line in real life. If you’re looking for action packed, high intensity gameplay keeping you on the edge of your seats then this is not for you. If you want a relaxing experience to just zone out and not have to care too much about the next goal or achievement then this game is perfect. I highly recommend just playing for enjoyment and not to just grind out quests and unlock everything as fast as humanly possibly… it will come(its a fishing game after all which is all about patience anyway), just play and have fun and fish up some digital sealife. Other then that the art style is really cool and pleasing along with the map designs. And the music/ environment sounds are a perfect match to the gameplay. I only just wish for more music options to be totally honest. Really fun game if you’re just looking to play for the sake of playing and not midmax or grind the whole game day 1. Highly recommend!

by ClapZbean

I was pleasantly surprised by this game. At first, I thought this game would be full of ads and quite boring after a while, similar to hooked. But, it’s not. There are no ads, very fun, and the music is absolutely amazing. There are endless challenges and many vast maps with varieties of fish species. You also get to build up your own island with the coins you earn from fishing! This is not a bot review, and I highly recommend this game, and this is why it earns my five-star review.

by Joel Hall

The fact I have my wife playing this game as well is enough to give it five stars! The gameplay, graphics, and ambient music and sound effects are excellent. I find the game relaxing and calming. Well done to the dev and design teams!
If I had any advice on a gameplay level it would be useful to have a map for times I forget where the helicopter is or another area, especially on larger areas. Also, the fish index that shows what fish we have caught could use the location that the fish were caught at. Too many times I have a quest to catch a particular fish or creature but have forgotten the area or time of day it is usually found.

by Abigbergail

Got this game thinking it was a different one, but boy was I anything but disappointed. Very cool, chill graphics, this game is like it you took just the fishing part out of animal crossing and added fun backstories and extra features. It’s a great game for those who like no brainers that are pretty and have cute storylines. There are no ads unless you choose to watch ads for bonus materials but by no means are they necessary to gameplay. To the developers: well done. This is a high-quality game for free, and if it continues being as awesome as it is it will definitely continue to have a home on my phone.

This game is extremely addictive and fun. In fact it’s currently my most play mobile game. With that being said, it needs a few more additions and tweaks.
First and foremost, you should tweak the resources required to craft buildings in the hub island. My first idea was to increase the rate of spawn for wood. The best way to improve it would be to reduce the total amount of resources needed and instead make the player acquire a variety of different materials.
The game could also use more areas. You need more content with how addictive this game is designed to be. When making these new areas don’t make the too much increasingly bigger because it becomes a hassle to traverse the map.
In the past I’ve seen very few games with the potential this one has, so it’s important to capitalize on it. The game is very solid in it’s current state, but it could be great. In the future I look forward to seeing this become one of the greatest games on CreaturesoftheDeep Store.

Thanks for reading, sincerely, Land

Yes. It’s slow. It’s peaceful. It’s NOT a complicated fishing game with daily timed rewards, meaningless upgrades, hundreds of buttons, and other players scoring higher than you who pay money for nothing. This is a patient game with beautiful simple frames and objectives that make you come back later. It’s a game you can’t finish quickly and can’t binge to the finish because it runs on its own clock. Gotta fish at night? Come back later. It forces you to put it down and breathe. And the objectives are interesting, puzzling, but not frustrating. I like to think if I made a fishing game, it’d be like this. Well done. Different.

The best fishing game out there. This is a very fun and enjoyable game. You’re not just casting into a prebuilt picture and mindlessly casting and reeling for no apparent reason like nearly every other fishing game. You pick which area you fish and can move around whenever you want in a boat. Sometimes you can see fish silhouettes and sometimes not. And just because you get a bite doesn’t mean you’ll catch a fish. You actually have to have a little patience. The other thing I like is that you get game money for what you catch and use it to buy better equipment, boat, or build things on your island. It’s challenging and fun. Great game!!

I’ve really enjoyed playing this game so far. Easy but interactive mechanics, fun to drive your boat around and obviously catching the fish. I think it’s paced really well giving you plenty to try to accomplish but then making you wait to progress to far. Idk it just helped me play in moderation which improves the longevity of enjoyment in my opinion. Not like clash of clans where it’s 2 years to upgrade stuff but not like stupid games with a ton of adds that just get boring after 20 minutes. 5 stars isn’t high enough. Really suggest trying it out :)

I downloaded this game earlier today and have enjoyed it so far it is slow paced and relaxing while also challenging. What compelled me to write the review was I accidentally bought something leaving me less than 100 coins which is the amount required to head to a location to fish rendering the game useless. The game offered a “thank you for playing” free 10 gems which buys 1000 coins while some would make the player spend money to continue playing.

This game is beautiful! It has a zen vibe to it yet there are tournaments (I haven’t got to yet). I haven’t felt a “pay to win” vibe. You can pay for things to help but it won’t guarantee you catch epic fish. It was very slow and hard to get started but I like that! Only thing I would like is maybe be able to add friends or chat. I have noticed that once in a while I can’t react fast enough to catch a fish… which is not good for my “reel master” progress! I will be checking out more game from this developer! 🥃🐺

Great game overall, but I want you guys to come up with a item shop already and be able to get Money easier than it is already, but also keep the ads on the down low. The main reason that I like this game so much is because it’s about fishing it’s also fun and have quests and missions to solve, the game overall is 9/10 I just want a hood item store that doesn’t cost real money. There’s no forced ads , so you can actually enjoy the game.

I haven't advanced too far but so far this is exactly what I've been looking for in a game. the mechanics are simple but yet theres quests and things you need to collect and even after your quests you can just go to your favorite spot and catch fish to sell at the market on your island. Ill make sure to come back and write another review when i progress further in the story and with the equipment upgrades.
