Fishing is not a hobby, it's a mindset. It is only reserved for the most dedicated among us. The extensive knowledge and experience required to be a full-time fisherman weeds out the weak and discourages even the strong. This job is not an easy one, but if you think you are up to it then... Who is stopping you? Hop on the Fishing Grind. Fishing Grind is a Coop/Singleplayer experience where y…

    The gameplay of the fishing game is generally enjoyable, featuring fun fishing and hunting mechanics, though it is noted that the fishing mechanics require improvement and the gun mechanics are particularly criticized. Players appreciate the simple gameplay loop and satisfying progression, making it a good choice for casual play, despite some visual roughness and early access limitations. Overall, while there are areas needing refinement, many users express excitement for future updates and content.

    • “Very fun fishing game with good hunting mechanics.”
    • “Although the game is in early access, it has great fishing mechanics and fun ways to catch different fish.”
    • “I love its simple gameplay and satisfying progression—perfect for unwinding and enjoying a casual challenge!”

  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story revolves around completing missions across various lakes while interacting with challenging resident animals, including a deer that serves as a mission hub and a gator in Florida that poses a significant threat. Players are encouraged to think strategically to overcome obstacles and progress through the narrative, which hints at further adventures to come. However, some players note a lack of a coherent story and issues with the tutorial, which can hinder the overall experience.

    • “All I can say is, if one way doesn't work, try another. You just have to be smarter than the animals. Once you have completed your mission there, you're off to Florida where a gator awaits to welcome you, and he will. I remember the first time I fished there where the hair stood up on my neck, and I almost peed my pants as he came from nowhere to instantly kill me.”
    • “He runs the place where you can receive new missions as you progress.”
    • “I cannot wait for the rest of the story.”
    • “However, continue to fish there to complete your missions.”
    • “You will have to complete a couple missions there; ok, if you thought that was bad, going to your next location will really test you.”

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics of the game are generally well-received, with many players noting that they exceed expectations for an alpha release. While some users experience performance issues, particularly with certain hardware, the visuals are described as charming and simple, with potential for improvement as development continues. However, it is acknowledged that the graphics may not be award-winning at this stage.

    • “Even though the game is still in alpha, the graphics are way better than you would expect.”
    • “This is my new main game, with in-depth lore and amazing graphics.”
    • “Graphically it won't win any awards, but I'm sure that given time and resources, the visuals will improve to a bearable level.”
    • “Graphics are charming yet simple.”
    • “I haven't played this game when writing this review, but I was lagging very badly with VSync on with an AMD graphics card!”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players report significant optimization issues, noting that even on low settings, the game causes excessive fan noise and underwhelming performance. Suggestions for improvement include reducing the size of unnecessarily large maps to enhance efficiency.

    • “The optimization in this game is impressive, allowing for smooth gameplay even on lower-end systems.”
    • “I appreciate how the developers have focused on optimizing performance, making it accessible for a wider range of hardware.”
    • “The game runs surprisingly well after the latest optimization patch, significantly improving frame rates and reducing load times.”
    • “I don't know if that's because my system is inadequate, or if it's optimization issues in the game.”
    • “Performance-wise, it is very underwhelming, and even on the lowest settings, it still causes your fans to ramp up to a quite scary level. The developers can easily fix this by removing some of the huge empty spaces in the maps and shrinking them a little - the maps are dangerously large for no reason.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's humor is highly praised, with players finding it particularly entertaining when played with friends, leading to moments of uncontrollable laughter. The comedic elements, especially involving the gun mechanics, enhance the overall experience, making it a standout feature that players hope will continue to be developed in future updates.

    • “This game is hilarious, best played with friends.”
    • “I was crying with laughter for all 3 hours I've played this game. Getting the gun makes it even funnier! Play with friends 100%. Hope they keep updating it.”

    Players express a deep emotional connection to the game, likening their experience to witnessing a close friend's growth, which evokes strong feelings and even tears. The game's development resonates personally, enhancing the sense of shared journey and emotional investment.

    • “I was brought to tears by the work put into this game. Watching it grow and change feels like witnessing a close friend evolve alongside me, creating a deep emotional connection as I have grown with this game.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the monetization aspect of the game to be somewhat lacking, suggesting that while the ad integration isn't ideal, it could be improved with better feedback mechanisms to enhance gameplay.
