Idle Fishing Story Wiki

I like it but there’s been lots of times where I close an ad for the profit booster and it just shuts off the app it’s been happening a lot More frequently now it’s getting frustrating cause I’m pretty sure you’re still getting paid while we don’t get our simple Little Boost

I love idle games but most are boring. When I first saw this I didn’t think it would be fun but it turned out to be very addictive. I LOVE it so much and I can’t hide it. If I didn’t download this game I think I would have died. Anyways,I just want to tell you that you make great content!

So the game is really fun and addicting game mechanics are cool but when a live event started everything seemed fine u til it froze so i exited and closed the app and since then i haven’t been able to open it back up Help!!

I like to play this game to pass time at work or other stuff and in the pirate event it is not showing any more achievements to get, so below the bar to fill there is nothing no goals so I cannot progress in the event. Other than that great game and I have had no other problems.

I am in the 4th level and my second to last quest is upgrade a boat. I have upgraded 2 different boats and it still won’t give me the quest and let me progress. Great game and hopefully this gets fixed soon so I can continue to play

Pros: The basic premise here is, you have 3 systems that all need to be leveled to make money: your boats to catch the fish, your dock to transport the fish, and your truck to take the fish away and sell them. The idea is that you should keep an eye on how productive all 3 systems are, and not waste money over-leveling one, since it won’t do any good if the other 2 can’t keep pace. You’re always looking to hit the next tier of upgrades, which gets you a significant boost in productivity, and helps you work past any bottlenecks. This was originally a very fun balancing act, and has a lot of potential. Cons: Now I’m on level 6, and I’ve hit a massive bottleneck with my trucking upgrades. Currently sitting on a backlog of 233 billion fish, even though I only collect about 5 million/sec. And there’s no end close in sight to the next tier of upgrades. I’m at least 3 days away before I can clear the bottleneck. I’m not sure if this is an accidental balancing issue, or an intentional one to direct me toward premium currency. Either way, this needs fixing if it’s going to stay interesting.

So far it has been a pretty fun and cute game. The story is pretty interesting and the events are extremely fun. The downside is as you go further and further in levels you hit the issue of a bottle neck because of your trucking (hauling fish away to sell) and your carrying (bring fish caught to the truck). I have a backlog of about 80 billion fish because it takes so long to upgrade those two pieces of the game. My dockhand is unable to match the speed of my boats and is forced to only bring in the third lowest paying fish while leaving the highest paying catch on the dock. If there was a way to make the dockhand go for the highest value and then work down this wouldn’t be an issue. With bring in the third lowest fish I have stagnated with the amount of money I can bring in from selling the fish.

The basics of the game are there. I believe some things still need to be tweaked. The ramp up from lvl 3 to lvl 4 is pretty steep and long. Chests only give you 300 gold when you watch an ad and I’m sitting with 200million in the bank. Doesn’t make me want to watch an ad. The chests should scale with lvl and money in the bank. Probably see more ad revenue. Some of the animations are wonky. The guy picking up fish walks backwards? At least give him another animation to walk like you expect him to. Game is still worth the download if you can get past the fact lvl 4 will take an eternity without using pay options.

Interesting game but massive problems with the curve and getting pearls. Game looks good but has a very high pay to advance factor hit a wall pretty early. Monetization is heavily integrated into gameplay developers are being a bit aggressive early on and would be better being less greedy. Free pearls are far to rare to keep playing.

I know these apps are made to make money, but I am not a fan when they restrict advancing in the game unless you spend money or answer multiple surveys and have you sign up for things. I got stuck on the 4th level and after playing for a good 30 minutes, realized I couldn’t go further unless I either bought gems or answered a bunch of scam -laden surveys for a few free gems. Besides this annoyance, which caused me to delete the game, I was actually enjoying the design and gameplay. Probably would have even spent money later on so I could advance faster or get different captains...(and what the crap is it with making you watch a 30 second ad for only 300 coins??)

Up until the recent update, ads were only presented when you chose them. Watching an ad for a chest, or a four hour bonus, was worth it! But with the last update, I’ve been getting ads (specifically for one game) that pop up at random, with no benefit. I’ve accidentally tapped on them while trying to do other things, and the most recent one even made the rest of the game non-interactive, so I had to close out entirely to be able to play again. If there were a “remove ads” IAP, or if they at least didn’t have interstitial ads, I’d keep playing, but as it is, it’s not worth continuing.

Was pretty far in this game. I think i was on the 6th phase or so. x12 multiplier. The game starts to become very grindy. which isn’t bad, but now it’s taking days and days of saving up money to buy like barely any upgrades. and the other day i saved up for a long time for this boat upgrade. I came and checked on it this morning and the upgrade wasn’t there. it was like i never even grinder for it for days. Just gunna delete. not a terrible game but not rlly worth playing

You guys are greedy I mean you give little pearls you hardly ever give gems I mean I’m on level 10 or somethin and the boats now go slower than ever you make me watch videos for wooden chests and only give me 2 cards and give me coins but no freakin pearls in the chests now you make me freakin watch a video to double my coins that I get when I get on the game unlike before when you jus let me collect it I’m about to delete this game you guys are greedy

game started out great, but with some bugs and over the past 3 events they have made it worse and worse. i could live with the bugs, but now they’ve dropped many of the achievements that made the events fun and “do-able”. i’ll be moving on to other games Came back to drop my rating to 1star. it’s clear drop rates in the event have been nerfed to the floor making this purely pay to win. i’m out
