This title began life as a freemium PC game by the name of Fishing Planet and now The Fisherman gathers up all the content and development progress made on the original project and offers it up for an all-inclusive price. Online play, leaderboards, and tournaments are all part of the package, neatly rounding out the impressive feature set for The Fisherman. The setup is simple - travel the world and try your hand at angling across nearly twenty different waterways that hold more than a hundred different species of fish and get the job done with a seemingly endless supply of licensed tackle and equipment.
The Fisherman - Fishing Planet truly nails some of the best parts of fishing but is ultimately crippled by a few quirks and an inability to shed its roots as a freemium game. Turning an activity that could leave you sitting in a boat for hours on end with no action can be tough to translate into an engaging gaming experience, but the folks at Fishing Planet LLC have taken a stab at it and ended up with some interesting results. While they’ve always been a niche product, fishing games have existed as long as the video game medium.
