This is straight-up – find the best location, the right type of equipment and conditions to catch the greatest prize. Don’t expect any narrative here where a dragon has taken your fish away, zombies taking over the world or escaping the underworld.

I come to The Fisherman – Fishing Planet with wide eyes and a lot of patience, as I would expect one would need that to catch dem fish. My fishing experience, outside of carnivals has mostly been in plaices like Saint-Denis and Van Horn Trading Post. But, is The Fisherman – Fishing Planet any good, or is it a pile of carp? I don’t like buses, but I very much enjoyed it. I was caught with my pants down with the Bus Simulator game.

To be honest, I don’t even eat fish, so playing this game could seem a little half-arsed, but not in the slightest. I know many people in the world of fish (don’t ask) but do I know anything about catching fish? Not really. Let me make it clear from the outset, I’m not a fisherman. This fintastic release from Big Ben Interactive is in shops 17th October 2019, and it’s my job to give you a fair account on whether you should be leaving your tackle alone and picking up this bad boy. If I didn’t go through a review of The Fisherman – Fishing Planet without making any sort of fish pun, I’d be doing a disservice to dads everywhere.
