About The Power of Fish
The Power of Fish is a fishing-meets-detective game. You've come out this summer to visit your uncle for a fun fishing vacation. But fishing isn’t your only job here, as after you’ve caught your fish, you must release the power it holds inside it.
Before you ascend a fish, you’ll want to ask it a few questions to find out just what it wants. After all, the lake is filled with evil and malicious fish. It wouldn’t be a good idea to unleash that kind of power… would it?GO FISHINGCast your line into the water! You’ll have to seek out the fish you want, while dodging the fish you don’t. Once a fish bites, you’ll have to keep them balanced on the hook, and respond to their pulls in time to keep them from escaping.INTERROGATE Within each fish lays an incredible power… but what kind? With just two questions and a handbook, you’ll have to deduce its personality trait. Is it playful? Power-hungry? But most importantly... Is it good or evil?BECOME POWERFULEach fish that you ascend will grant you powers. Become speedier! Become stronger! Or maybe just get the ability to glow in the dark. You’ll find all these powers and more on the way to become the ultimate angler. With 50+ fish to find and catch, there's plenty of fish in the sea, as they say. Or the pond. Catalog them in your Fishipedia! You can even unlock and wear the colors of your favorite fish. LIVE WITH YOUR ACTIONSSome fish are evil. Like, real messed up. If you accidently ascend them, it may result in dire consequences.

Ok, with a bit of thinking and a response from the dev, I feel bad leaving a negative review, even if I still don't know that I would recommend the game (and not without qualifications). But I decided to put a bit more effort into expanding my review at least. It tries to combine being a fishing game with a creature collector using a twist of guessing your fish's characteristics, which is a neat concept. I like fishing games, I like creature collectors, and I like puzzles, so it seemed like an obvious chioce. For me, however, the fish interrogation wore out its welcome pretty quickly as it's just the same four questions over and over again, so it's very repetitive, and the correct choice is always very obvious or completely obtuse. Incorrect choices making the fishing minigame more annoying makes the creature collecting aspect of the game more tedious. It got very grindy very quickly, and repeating the same questions over and over again to slightly level my stats so I could catch different fish to ask the same questions stopped being fun much faster than I'd hoped. Navigating the UI settings is not the most user friendly as I apparently missed how you can change to full screen…3 found this helpful
Wow, I sure love click-speed trainers disguised as fishing games. The eldritch abominations are great motivators for clicking even faster. (The game's great; it's actually extremely relaxing once you get the core strategies down. Well done to the devs.)1 found this helpful
fishing minigame
Very fun! And very creative. I enjoyed it.
Silly fishing game with fun fishing mechanics and a postgame/new game+ that presents an actual challenge (at least so far, I'm not very far into the postgame due to said difficulty lmao)
The fishing mini-game is decent, if bare-bones, but the question gimmick is way too limiting for my tastes. Why is it only the SAME four questions you can ask EVERY SINGLE TIME? Also, full screen mode just does not work. Sure, pressing N (huh?) will fill the screen, but if you click anywhere outside the original size of the window, you click out of the game and onto the windows desktop. I gave it a half hour, but it didn't catch me. *drum rimshot*
