Fishing Paradiso: A mobile fishing RPG

During these chaotic times, I like to turn to games in order to relax, and recently I´ve found a game that satisfies that need for escape in the form of Fishing Paradiso, a free mobile fishing game.

At first glance, it looks like an average fishing game, but it´s has a decent storyline and you get to befriend some quirky characters, as well as a couple of rpg mechanics.

The premise is simple, you have died and went to paradise, however you don´t remember much about your life or how you died. At the start of the game you have an encounter with the Giant God Fish Martell, he tells you that in order to be accepted in heaven you must find him. After said event, you wake up in an island, befriend a bluebird and embark on a mission to catch the Celestial Fish.

The gameplay is simple, to fish simply press on a button, that activates a bar which determines the distance of your line, tap it again to cast it, and press again to reel it in. The best way to catch fish to have your line land near the shadows on the water, once an exclamation point shows up, that means it took the bait. You also have to pay attention to another bar that shows up while you are trying to get the fish, if it becomes full, the line will break off and you will have to try again.

Now, some of the shadows will have a different color, this is the fish you´ll need to capture in order to complete quests.

Whenever you capture a new species of fish it shows up in your journal, complete with a description. So, there is an element of completion in this game.

However there are limits, at the start you are giving at least a couple of worms as bait, once you run out, you will have to wait to get more. You can also watch ads. if you don´t want to deal with this, you also have the option of buying the full version of the game, but you can pretty much complete the story with the free version.

About the quests, these are given to you by any of the characters you meet. Each character has their own storyline. Completing missions and leveling up their friendship with award you coins, items and allow you to progress in the main and side stories. They usually request you to capture a certain number of a particular fish.

Completing parts of the main story will unlock new fishing areas. Coins will allow you to upgrade your fishing skills, as the fish become more and more challenging with each area. And the items are mostly for cosmetic purposes, in fact at the beginning, one of the characters builds you a house that you can fill with furniture. Here´s how I decorated mine:

After completing the story, you are free to fully level up your friendship, complete the fishing journal, and you get to play through a new bonus event and unlock new secret areas.

I have this to be a very entertaining and relaxing game, the pixel art gives it a certain charm. It is also not a very demanding game and can be played offline.Also it is free, with the option to support the creators by getting the full version.

The game is available on google play, click here to download it.
