About

Your angling skills will be tested to the limit as you explore two vast USA bass lakes set in Florida and upstate New York and five European locations, including France’s famous Gigantica Main Lake and even a challenging stretch of the UK’s Grand Union Canal.

Go after eighteen different species of fish with hundreds of items of equipment including licensed tackle from some of the biggest names in fishing such as: Bass Cat Boats, Rat-L-Trap, Duckett Fishing and Korda. Use your boat’s GPS and sonar to locate bass before choosing the right tactics to successfully catch them.

Using advanced AI and fish behavioral systems, each species behaves differently - reacting to water temperature and bait choice – so you will have to choose your strategy carefully to land your prey. Fish at your own pace, find your perfect setup, then challenge yourself to land the best catch.

Fishing Sim World reflects the competitive element of this great sport, allowing you to take part in live tournaments against opponents from around the world with the aim of becoming a Fishing Sim World champion! Players can also opt to fish with friends in 4-player multiplayer, comparing catches on real-time leaderboards.Key Features

Fishing Sim World reviews and comments

So one thing in advance .. I am a very big fishing fan and own all the bigger Fishing Games here on Steam and have played them all long (Euro Fishing, Fishing Planet, Ultimate Fishing Simulator, Russian Fishing 4) For me, this Type of game is a great Change from Work and the Daily Stress ... That is why I can give my Opinion below on Comparisons with Pay to Win titles. But first of all to the important .. Fishing Sim World! Those who liked Euro Fishing are by no means disappointed here, in the opposite. The same control And much resembles! Much has been done better, and many Innovations have come (Spinning Techniques etc) The control is a little difficult for starters, only that goes, with time then prima (Practice famously makes perfect) and the drilling is as with Euro Fishing well. There are 7 Lakes and the Graphics look good! Online Tournaments as well as Single Players ... With the In-game currency You can improve your Equipment and and and and ... The Posing fishing Could well be improved, because you don't see the Pose so directly, think there's something else to come. I see the Game similar to the Ultimate Fishing Simulator ... Mix of Simulation and Arcade that makes one thing: Fun! And that's a Lot .. And that should make a Game ...----------------------------------------------------Now to the Topic about what everyone is taking care of here ... "not like Russian Fishing 4 etc ... No Simulation .. And and and. The fact is RF4 and FP are very great Games, but to compare this Game with a Pay to win MMO like RF4 or FP, where you only get further if you pay a monthly Fee (unless you have too much Time and don't have to do andres) or for some other Things to do Checkout is asked (all voluntarily of course) is many things, but not right! Because for that, this Game can be said here nix ^ ^ how it makes a Lot of Whimsy ... And that is the important thing! My humble Opinion on this:)

Hello Community, what should I say about this Game of Dovetail Games-Fishing just without kicking the Developers directly on the Feet. I am a very big Fan of Fishing Simulations and like to play these Simulations for Relaxation. But what is offered to the Player here is actually a Cheekiness and can never represent the most authentic Fishing Simulator in the World. The 35 Euros for the Content offered is absolutely beside it. In the Game, even with good Equipment, you hardly land fish. After the Bite, the Fish takes off the Fishing Line to maximum Length in a Fraction of a second After a short fight and gets lost. Are these the so-called "Torpedo Fish" or what do you call such a Phenomenon when Fishing? The Braking Effect of the Coil does not appear to exist, no matter what you do. Even High Tech Rods bend through as if they are breaking Right away, even if only a 2 Kilo of Fish hangs on the Fishing. It's always the same Acting. I only have frustration, because there is no Gaming experience. If you are interested in Fishing, you should, for example, install the free Games "Russian Fishing 4" or "Fishing Planet" and then invest the Money that you have saved by Buying "Fishing Sim World" in a DLC (FP) or in Gold (RF4) and really use it Go fishing for pleasure-it's worth it and you have more Fun fishing. Like "European Fishing" by Dovetail Games, I cannot recommend this Game again. Plus points are there from me here only for the Graphics, which in my Opinion is very nice in this Game. However, the Graphics do not mainly make up the Game pass, but the Content of the Game must convince the Gamer. Sorry, here Dovetail Games-Fishing has to follow up properly so as not to end up on the Hook. This Game is completely impossible to get along with games like "Russian Fishing 4," "Fishing Planet" or even "Fishing Barents Sea." MfG Flakzobel
