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.
