It is unclear how to submit fish caught on Voyage
Finally, an idle game that isn't a idle game!
Wow, where do I begin? This game is amazing. The graphics are cute and the ability to unlock different and yet vast diverse ships is the chef's kiss. My favorite is the flamingo. This game is a idle game in where you unlock the fisherman/fisherwoman assistant who sits on the dock and repeatedly fishes to give you coins to use to upgrade ships as well as the island. What makes this game stands out is the ability to upgrade your islands, fish and do random things like play with a giant beach ball. I haven't figured out the difference with the ships itself other than inventory sizes. Now, some ideas for the developers can you add more music choices when you unlock the drums. I would also love to explore the other islands as well you put so much details into the islands as well as the vast fish or fishes(different species of fish, google it.) it is a shame not to explore the islands and dig for treasure or do a quest that requires you to cut down a tree or interact with villagers. Just a though. Other wise it is a near perfect game that isn't just a idle game. The only game that is almost similar to this one is soda dungeon because it's a hybrid between RPG/adventure and idle.
Super fun!!!
Great game all in all! Thank you for letting it be a nice relaxing and simple experience rather than riddling it with ads. I’m very excited to see future updates and new features! I’d suggest adding different boats and maybe simple character customizations. Another fun idea might be to connect all the islands and be able to boat to them from the main island? Last suggestion-maybe a tab that’s just dedicated to supporting you guys would probably work well. Just leaving optional ads with no rewards or anything just leave it up to the player to be able to support you. Great game though!!! Edit: Just redownloaded and it’s so cool to see how much the game has progressed!!! I’m so excited to see where it goes. I think a fun feature was being able to go on the islands, maybe the crates that you find in the water could be dug up on land if you find a message in a bottle in the water with a treasure map! This would make the process of getting a crate more rewarding and overall more valuable I think. Either way super fun game thank you!
Beyond enjoyable!!!
I have been looking for a fun and relaxing game to play during my downtime at work, at trying multiple random ones i happened to stumble across Tides this morning… I’m hooked! (Pun intended) it’s super easy to get started, extremely immersive and just an absolute blast to play. Tons of little features besides fishing also like being about to find companions such as hamsters, birds etc. and they even give you coins over time! Upgrading boats, upgrading fishing assistants or just going from island to island trying to catch the biggest fish you can find. It’s hands down one of the best games I’ve ever played on mobile in any category. Not to mention, there is hardly any ads!!! And if you do have to watch one, you will benefit from it. Unlike other games that force you to watch ads over and over with nothing in return. These ads are optional, and will give you coins, or treats for you companion to upgrade them! Like I said before, very immersive for such a cute little fishing game. Go ahead and try it, you will love it.
Nice game, hoping for more updates
I got this game a month or so ago because of the reviews and have been playing off and on just to build up money because in the later part of the game it takes a LONG time to progress. Been doing the jobs from the job board and using the idle fishermen. I do wish there was more stuff you could do like maybe customize your ships, upgrade fishing poles and such. Also if the money you get from fish from places you unlocked in the beginning would scale up as you unlock new areas, that would be nice. Otherwise I just never keep the fish from there and don’t care about going back. Was trying to find some sort of news for upcoming updates but i’ve found nothing besides some speculation on things that people want or things that have already been added. Anyways, this game is a really great idle game but it peters out towards the late game as it requires a lot more time and grinding to actually unlock the final areas.
Simply exceptional
There are few games today that I feel are worthwhile playing on iOS. I download games with the expectation of becoming tired of them within a very short length of time, however this game is different. This game is a work of art akin to that of Alto’s Adventure and its sequel Alto’s Odyssey. The only difference is the inclusion of ads, but they are not at all intrusive and you could happily play this game without needing to watch a single ad or purchase a single thing. I did, however, happily shell out $6.99 to remove ads from the game. Not because I disliked the ads (I mean I don’t like them but who does), but because I wanted to support the developers. The gameplay is refreshing and I literally just spent two hours playing without even realizing. Keep it up. I look forward to your future work, be it on this game or something completely new. ETA: I tried to join the discord but the invites both in the game and on the website are expired. Please update!! :)
Just what I was looking for.
It has a chill, cozy, yet fun atmosphere. Its such a nice experience upgrading your boat and island and going on fishing trips to different locations. I would love to see more. Multiplayer would take this game to a whole new level. It would literally be the best mobile game to exist. Similar to Animal Crossing, you would be able to enter the houses that are already on the island and have the ability to customize the inside and decorate it. Coins could be spent on those decorations and even self customization like accessories. And just the thought of being able to visit your friends’ islands and chilling with the low-key music in the background is making me warm and cozy inside. I’m really looking forward to the future of this game and I think it has heaps of potential. I sincerely hope you consider implementing multiplayer Tides. Thanks a lot, I’m enjoying it very much and I think the Developers are awesome!
This game dropped from heaven
If you have anxiety, everyday stress, or excessive anger, then THIS is the game for you. This is only my second day playing and I’m already leaving a 5 star. The game is very well balanced because you can upgrade your dock fisherman and when you play the next day your fisherman could have caught you well up to 30k coins at night. (I have level 25 fisherman, if you haven’t downloaded yet, you can upgrade your fisherman to get you more coins per catch.) This is super helpful because once you buy the 4th island, the next one is almost 15 times as expensive. If you grinding for things like in a game without being asked to buy things every 2 minutes and making your island home better, and also fishing for beautiful fish from around the world, then this is the game for you. I would love to see a dev response, your little characters on my island are super cool!
Great game, Im freaking addicted XD
I honestly love this game! I literally just got this game an hour ago and I'm already to Redrock. (Which i formerly mistook for Bedrock) Although this is a great game, I think that maybe a bit more variety would be great. By that i mean; maybe you could add this thing for quests where you sail to a separate group of islands where you could find fruits like bananas and coconuts and pineapples. But not too much detail or anything since it would just be a mini game thing, for when you don’t wanna fish or once you finish finding fish for all the islands. Other than the repetitive fishing technique, this game is freaking awesome, keep up the great work! (Also btw, i love how you don't have boundaries on rocks an in the water, it amazing since basically all games with these kinds of controls have that) ( ALSO also; i love the flamingo boat, its the only one i use XD)
11th Star Game*
The adventures have begun :) This has been a super kool breath of fresh air. You can leisure at your own pace. Low learning curve with great tutorials to get started. Visit new places and I don't wanna spoil anything but I have even made few new friends....Well more like acquaintances now but they are growing on me. Also if you can afford to buy a start pack great but if your like me and have kids galore you will find our friends here have put some sweet video options and some extra credit for you explorers out there. It helps them for you to watch the ad so they help you with some goodies of every type:) best freedom of spending choice app I have ever seen paired with its content type. Way to go !!!!

I’d just like to say...
Thank you, developers, for creating this wonderful game. It’s a dream come true. So many pros, not one con. Seriously. It’s peaceful, relaxing, and exciting to learn about new fish I’ve caught. And I’ve only been playing for, like, 30 minutes! My only wish for this game is a multiplayer option. That would make my experience SO much more fun! Visiting other islands would just seem so... 👌😌. This game is SERIOUSLY underrated. I’ve played a ton of idle games, but I’ve always decided to delete them in the first 10 minutes of me playing. But this...this is truly a diamond in the rough. It’s slow-paced, which I like of a game. I’m on an island. I LOVE the water. I could go on and on about what I like in this, but I don’t think my fingers would prefer that. So I’ll end this review here. Thank you, developers.
An awesome experience but needs a bit of polish
I adore this game and the fact that no one has ever properly made a good fishing game just proves how great it is. However the one problem is polish, for the style I see your going with a low poly look to your style and that’s cool but a lot of stuff looks way too low poly and I feel their should be better textures and details. Another thing is just the minor details as i feel their should be more verity in scenery like with plant life both in and out of water , an example would be coral Reefs although those are technically animals. Another thing could be reeds or algae for more closed in mangroves. On a final note the biggest thing that is needed is MORE CONTENT as I can’t get enough of it. Well done and I hope this game gets the love that it deserves
Perfect Relax Game where Ads don’t get in the way
The gorgeous aesthetics, simple yet engaging mechanics, as well as a progression system that walks the fine line between challenging but also doable goals make this game so much fun and relaxing. It’s not the most thrilling game, but I like that the developers have chosen a specific purpose and type of game and made it really good. My biggest praise is Shallot’s approach to monetization of this game. Ads seem few and far between because they are intentionally placed to reward players for watching them, and you only see them when you choose to. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a relaxing game to waste time with. Also check out their Discord server, the community is awesome and there are weekly fishing tournaments.
Needs more content
I really want to love this game. It’s beautiful, and the basics are there. But it becomes very boring and repetitive very fast. There are no surprises, everything is very easy to get and the game is over very quickly. It’s a shame because the look of the game is so appealing. But there’s nothing to keep you coming back. Devs, why not add some legendary or mythical fish, for example? I’ve never enjoyed a game so much where I felt absolutely no desire whatsoever to spend money. I’m not dropping real money to buy some bunny ears for my character. Everything that’s possible to get, you get within minutes. And it’s a snooze after that. If you made the game more complex, with much more to gain, you’ll retain players. As it is, it won’t. If everything available in the game is easily attained within minutes it will lead to quick quits, which is such a shame for such a gorgeous and appealing game. Please, please add MUCH more content.
Fun, but has some drawbacks
First of all, this is the most fun fishing game I've played. The gameplay and music are very relaxing. I want to keep playing it, but there are some things that make it really hard to stay engaged. The biggest problem is later game progression when fishing assistant cash is arbitrarily capped at around 100k when not actively playing. This makes it really hard to progress when further fishing assistant upgrades (that have no actual benefit because of the cap) start costing 3-4 times that cap and when the next island costs almost 80 times the cap. Fish rewards need to be increased too. Even if I filled all my slots with rare fish (next to impossible; 8 slots for me right now) I'd still only get about 25k, so there's no point in playing the game for any extended length of time. I currently only open the game for a couple seconds a few times a day to get the inactive cash and upgrade assistants if I have enough cash.
