If you are in the market for something else, other then this game, how about some tasty crustaceans instead? Two available crab ships are the perfect choice for going on a hunt for the majestic king crabs (DLC, included in this version). Gutting fish works like – well not a charm. Are you weary of the five catchable types of fish? I certainly was not. Combine this with the gutting mini-game, which can ruin the combo’s you gained by catching fish. Each fishing method will challenge the fishers with a frustrating mini-game.

After mastering the art of longline fishing, they can switch to net fishing before trying their hand at the supreme discipline of trawling on board of the game’s largest ship, the originally licensed Hermes Trawler. More than 12 boats and ships with various pixelated characteristics and fishing methods are available for future fishers. On the sometimes calm and sometimes stormy sea, they will encounter many terrible looking AI ships and boats, making the virtual fishery playground even more dreadful. Sadly the game world looks … like something from the end of the 90’s/early 2000s. On what should be a realistic and extensive map – covering the area around the well-known fishing port of Hammerfest – they should first refill their stock, including baits, lines, and more functional equipment before heading out to a thriving fishing haul. So The Fishing: Barents Sea – Complete Edition promises to take console owners to the icy coasts of Northern Norway, where they will make their dream of their fishing boat, come true. Using the ship’s radar and Scanmar catch system, you have to calculate the season prices for certain species and master the different fishing methods available in the game. Along the coastline of Norway, you will sail and catch a lot of fish. This small solid line fishing ship is the beginning of your adventure to find the best fishing spots out there. Step on to the Børge, a large wooden ship left to you by your grandfather.

But don’t be sad, I will discuss this game in-depth, so strap into your seatbelts, and let’s sing a sea shanty!
