Both Big Catch and Big Fish can be played against the computer, local multiplayer, or local network multiplayer.Īs the fisherperson, you get to choose from one of six areas to cast your line and wait for a bite. Once you finally get into the application, you have three fishing modes to choose from: 'Go Fishing,' a free fishing experience, 'Big Catch,' a tournament where the individual with the highest weight total caught in 3 minutes wins, and 'Big Fish,' where the largest fish caught in 3 minutes determines the winner. (Note: the app did crash on my iPod touch the first several times I attempted to run it after installation, but a restart fixed the issue.) There are a quite a few graphics, textures, and animations to load, but that doesn't make it any less frustrating and made me wonder if it could be optimized at all. The game sits on the splash screen loading for upwards of 20 seconds, leading the user to believe that the device has locked up before finally launching. The load time for this game is Terrible (yes, the capital 't' is necessary). I just want to get this out of the way to start. Flick Fishing, a fishing simulator, is the product of Adam and Aaron Fothergill, perhaps best known for their cult classic Airburst and Airburst Extreme, and is another budget title in Freeverse's growing iPhone library. There is a new iPhone game from the folks at Freeverse it's another Flick title, making what was once only a single game (Flick Bowling) officially a series.
