Fishing Sim World  

 

My sadness of Dovetail Games belly flopping on Fishing Sim World with Family Friendly Gaming turned to happiness when FFG purchased this game for a review. Then I played Fishing Sim World on the PS4. The modes in this fishing game are Single Player (Freedom Fishing or Tournaments), Online, Tutorial, Angler’s Log, Customize, and Shop. We customize our avatar and get on the lake for some fishing.

Fishing Sim World might be the most realistic fishing simulator I have ever played. If I wanted to cast and never catch anything I could do that in real life. That fish radar showed me fish and nothing would bite. I can spend hours not catching anything in the real world. I do not want that experience in a video game. I even went through the tutorial to learn how to catch fish. It did not help me.

I like the graphics in Fishing Sim World. It feels like being at the locations. There are seven of them in all. There are multiple launch sites at this locations as well. The water areas are huge in Fishing Sim World. We can pick different control schemes. They do take a bit to figure out. Like casting is L2, and then building the power is R2. Some controls are shown on screen and some are not.

I loved driving the boat around these lakes. It was fun. I could do that and get some progress. We do not see underwater so we have no idea if a fish is close to biting. Most fishing games show us underwater so we can see when to try and move the rod. This is part of what makes Fishing Sim World a realistic fishing simulator. Just not much of a fun video game in my opinion.

Fishing Sim World is a very quiet game. I guess we do not want to spook the fish. Who never seemed to be very close to my boat anyways no matter what that fish radar said. I value Fishing Sim World at ten dollars brand new. This is a very safe game for families. I did not enjoy my time with this game. I do not want to play it anymore. I certainly will not play Fishing Sim World online.
