Idle Fish 2: Fishing Tycoon

“Every 15 seconds after opening the game it freezes, causing me to exit and re-enter. When I spend resources to upgrade my boat, the freeze occurs; gold or gems are deducted but upgrades do not appear.”

“Game freezes too often, making it very difficult to continue. The phone freezes upon trying to upgrade more than once. Until this bug is fixed, my review remains at 2/5 stars.”

“It has a bug where it just stops and freezes in frame. I've been at the same level and gold amount because it resets progress every time I close and restart the game.”

“Ads block gameplay and disrupt gameplay all the time.”

“Unskippable 1 minute ads interrupt gameplay, with no full version just a subscription option to remove them.”

“Gameplay stalls at level 8 with ridiculous upgrade and XP requirements.”

“You spend days on end grinding and weakening the whale boss only to find that once you defeat it, your progress resets. I spent money to progress faster because the grind is ridiculously slow, and nowhere in the game does it tell you that your progress will be lost.”

“Very grindy game, no offline gain at all despite being labeled an 'idle' game. Fishing boats' income is much lower than catching one fish. I was level 8 and it took me 2 weeks to grind from level 8 to 9, even after spending money on upgrades. The slow experience progression is very frustrating.”

“The game has retained its heavily grindy aspect, arguably even worse now, especially with the winter gem zone around levels 13-15. This grindy progression significantly hampers enjoyment.”

“Main quest progress is locked behind real money currency - avoid.”

“Fish and robots that you need to catch to go further in the story would cross walls and you can't do anything about it if you are under a certain level; they won't go through walls if their difficulty is normal.”

“The map is nearly identical, the upgrade menus are identical, and almost all the quest locations and quests are the same, just worded differently to fit the fishing style of the game.”

“Fix the fact that you just recorded a lullaby music box for a baby and repeat it every 8 seconds.”

“When I start up the app, the music/SFX still plays even though I have already disabled them.”

“At first I thought this game was going to be very boring and slow paced but they've somehow made it extremely fun and enjoyable, though the soundtrack gets a little annoying after hearing it loop for 30 minutes.”

“Horrendous graphics, glitching gameplay, very bad gameplay balance, very expensive microtransaction shop, pointless subscription option, and millions of annoying ads.”

“Clickbait: I thought the graphics were the same as in the screenshot, but they're not.”

“I love the game, but the new graphics are bad. I hate to see all the fish and new logos.”

“Might be an okay idle game if it didn't lag so badly, but it stutters even on a decent device and has no performance setting to try and adjust the problem.”

“Great game, like the mechanics, but the game is very badly optimized. It drains my 5260mAh battery very fast and heats the phone. I play Brawl Stars, PUBG, League of Legends, and none of them heat the phone this much.”

“This game is not optimized for phones 2 years old.”
