I haven't played a fishing simulator since the Dreamcast era, so I decided to give Ultimate Fishing Simulator a whirl. It's either one of the most boring games I've ever played, or one of the most compelling. I'm not sure? The basic gist of the game is that you go to various fishing holes and catch fish for money and exp to upgrade your gear and perks to catch bigger fish. That's about it. The game tracks your achievements and you're given a cool lodge to view your biggest catches. Basic fishing on the default Arcade difficulty is fun and relaxing. You select your bait, you cast and you wait for the fish to bite. Once hooked, the fish is given a fluctuating fatigue bar that you have to drain without breaking your line. This later expands to different fishing styles and better gear. You then unlock different fishing holes and attempt to get tougher species. I recommend experimenting at the default lake for a few hours. It's all very relaxing once you figure out how each "battle" will play out and how gear, level and perk progression works. I recommend NOT buying the DLC zones until you know for sure if the game is for you. The DLC maps add a good amount of variety and they support this passion project. The scenery and nature sounds were designed pretty well. The fish are great looking, but not animated particularly well. There's a number of odd real life streaming radio stations you can listen to, but I turned those off for maxo relaxo. The optional MP component is really fascinating. It turns your fishing hole into a small chatroom where you see other players' catches. You also have virtually no player avatar, but other players have no effect on your ability to catch fish. Note: There seems to be no Steam/GOG MP crossover. Fun game, if you're looking for a break from the grind. Devs are on point and are constantly improving the game. 4/5. Help yourself to some Coors Light, play some Lynyrd Skynyrd tapes at a sensible volume and embrace your inner Boomer.
