How it plays

  • Friends fish the same water together and chat while waiting for a bite, and on the ocean up to five can share one boat, depending on the vessel.

  • Private and club rooms keep a group together, and players can set up their own competitions to see who lands the biggest catch.

  • The pace is slow and the tackle system deep, so it suits patient groups.

  • The game is free, but there is no crossplay between consoles or between Steam and consoles.

  • Chill

  • Easy to chat while playing
  • Newcomer friendly
