long story short - nearly all the reviews are pre-update. I haven't noticed any bug until now and the game itself is something between okay and good. The release with the bugs wasn't lucky, but it now seems as the game would be really bad which simply it isn't.
After the update to version 1.0.2a the get got to be great.For the money worth every pennie.Love it is not simple need to do a lot of thinking and making hard decisions to win the game,
This a good little game it had a few bugs that are now fixed needs some added content to keep me going on it but one thing I'm guessing was over looked was the size of the lobster (824 inches long) that would make them 68 foot plus in size and would need godzilla to harvest them not a small boat =)
I think this game has been unfairly reviewed, but I have to agree that there are many bugs with the game but this game is not a clicker at all, the start is very slow but once you get your second boat and more crew you become much more involved i am almost finish era 1 and it does pickup a lot but for now I would suggest waiting before buying this, I encountered 3 game breaking bugs. I am sure this will be fixed in the upcoming patch, it is playable but these bugs will frustrate you so wait for it to be fix. I am leaving a positive review because I can see myself enjoying this game once everything works
So here is my review for the game. I have only played 30 minutes to know that this is not a great game (played till I furfilled the first goal, 20.000 gold). - The sprites used for the characters are just ugly. I love pixel art and this game just did it wrong. - Back ground art looks meh and lazy - There is 1 ''song'' that keeps repeating itself which is really annoying to listen to - The text font is just terrible to read - You literally click on a boat, choose which 2 will operate it, choose map, randomly put a pointer on a specific piece of ocean and hope for the best. - There is no explanation as to where you have a higher change of finding more lobsters and the circles make no sense - After you have set all for the boat trip you just look at your screen and wait - I do not know why you would hire more people to work for you when only 2 can get on the boat - Gameplay is just boring. I thought this would be a bit of a management game, so you set out the route for the boat and when the boat is on its way you can do other things, a big nope for that. So overall, the game is just boring for me, looks horrible and an annoying ''song'' that keeps looping was the last straw for me to refund this game.
nice game
Well, after some starting Problems (unplayable after relaese) but worked well now, they have added more features and fixed the bugs so can i say now, a fun little Game with some more things the Developer should can add. But i wonder why this Game was released so early, 3 more Weeks and anything is fine now. Funny little Game pls put some more work in it
Servus! Lasst euch nicht von den schlechten Bewertungen abschrecken, die leider vom völlig verheerenden Release stammen. "Ja", das Ganze war bis vor ein paar Tagen aufgrund von Bugs unspielbar und hätte so am eigentlichen Datum nie rauskommen dürfen. Punkt... Und nehmt auch die deutsche Lokalisation nicht so ernst... wenn möglich, spielt es am besten einfach auf Englisch ;) Allerdings wurde inzw. mehrfach gepatcht und sogar teilweise noch ein wenig am Gameplay und QoL-Features gebastelt und man kann mit Fug und Recht behaupten, dass es ein lustiges, kleines Tycoon-Spielchen rund ums Thema "Hummer" geworden ist. Man fängt natürlich klein an, mit einem Boot und wenigen Inseln auf denen man fischen kann (oder heißt es bei Hummern "fangen"? ...keine Ahnung) - und ist dann schnell dabei ´ne Aufzuchtstation zu bauen durch die man dann wieder die Fischgründe "renaturieren" kann... Wer Lust hat, sich das Ganze mal anzuschauen, der ist herzlich bei mir auf dem Kanal eingeladen. https://youtu.be/HTn2XXnHER4 Viel Spaß & Vielen Dank an Maulidan Games für den Support meines Kanals!
***Updated review....I refunded again! I repurchased this game at the devs request after the last update. I don't see any improvement at all. Forget the awful music/sound effects and the super cringy dialog. This game has no strategy to it. There is no upgrading boat parts and buying gear for fishing....you just simply click some buttons to start a mission then a weather event may pop up and you have 2 options like go through the storm or go around and waste fuel and then thats about the end of the mission, you get some xp and some random amount of crabs. I seen that Game Dev Tycoon was an inspiration for this game, both games cost the same but this game is not even close to the depth and content that Game Dev Tycoon has. .....And who in the world speaks like characters in this game??? Remove all the dialog and start over with it, find a better story with believable english. Immersion killing..... original review: I had been following this game forever and was so excited for release day. Release day came and was so dissapointed once I played it. There is little strategy to be played and it lacks depth, its shallow...I mean real shallow. Its boring. The dialog is just awful awful awful, it must be written and then translated by someone who speaks little to no english. I know its a cheap game but its so so bad I still can't recommend buying it. Definitly not was I was expecting and not worth 5$.
bug résolue je suis très content désormais le le dérnier soucie est qu'il y a trop de text entre chaque phase de pêche quand ont a 4 bateaux cela est extrêmement long ... sur ce jai modifier mon évaluation jeu enfin jouable et cela fais plaisir .
