Quite possibly the only fishing game I've played (granted, I haven't played many dedicated fishing games that is not about a timing/rhythm game, but rather about figuring out fish locations/habits through exploration and experimentation. The procedural nature of the game world kind of makes sure you can't fall into a predictable routine too easily, every lake having its own quirks. The "humanity has instant interstellar teleportation technology and uses it primarily for recreational fishing" plot reminds me in a good way of stuff like Anthony Appleyard's (RIP) Sea Patrol, a setting where the most important political question of the day is scuba diving regulations. It's charming! |
