There are daily competitions available if you’re of the more competitive nature and missions for those achievement hunters out there!

Some of the more noticeable changes to the game which have been mentioned by the developer are that the in-game cash and bait coins are easier to obtain, the licences are cheaper and are now permanent instead of timing out, travel and fishing fees are now cheaper and repair costs for your gear are less, All of this I feel make for a much more enjoyable and relaxing experience. Menu system first looks daunting but is easy to navigate… The menu’s at first look are a little daunting, with plenty of menus and sub menu’s to work your way through, particularly the store, there is a huge selection of rods, lines, hooks, reels, bait and boats to choose from, but they are easy to navigate. I much prefer this way of learning the game, you also earn a few bait coins along the way. Unlike Fishing Sim World, The Fisherman has an interactive tutorial which over the course of a few hours of gameplay, introduces you to the various fishing techniques, rods, lines, hooks and bait. The new Trolling fishing technique, New boats and 4 new fish, only available in this version. As I stated in my Review of Fishing Sim World Pro Tour, I’m no Fisherman, But I do love my sim games! Is The Fisherman worth the price tag over the free to play version? Let’s don our trusty fishing jacket and cap and find out!įishing Planet originally launched as a Free 2 Play game back in 2015 the game itself was free but you’d pay for DLC’s and microtransactions, 4 Years later, Publisher Bigben Interactive releases The Fisherman, The Fishing Planet you know and love, boxed with all the DLC and not a penny more of your own hard-earned to spend! It also comes with an extra map, La Creuse.
