A Happy Fishing Trip at your Table

I've enjoyed fishing my entire life, but only in the past 5-6 years have I taken an interest in fly fishing. Although still a beginner, I really enjoy it. This game brings the enjoyment of the hobby to my table. Although I feel others who like fishing will like this game as well. It's a lighter weight game in terms of complexity, lots of fun, the artwork is beautiful and the theme is strongly present throughout. The solo mode is also very enjoyable! I'm really happy to have this game in my collection.

I'm not a fisher yet find this to be a very fun blend of game mechanisms and escapism.

My favourite thing about Freshwater Fly is that it doesn't require you allocate any of your brain power towards suspending disbelief to maintain immersion.

Hooking a fish is luck based but allows for mitigation which helps to both keep the game interesting and feeling fair. However, just like in reality (no matter what your cunning plans may be) you remain almost fully at luck's mercy as to which exact fish may end up biting during your cast. It's not uncommon to have a sure bet of hooking something after your line fully drifts down the river, but a fish along the way to the one you were really hoping for ends up taking the bait first. The only way to guarantee a particular fish will bite is to cast on it and have enough finesse built up to spend (if required after your one free attempt) to force a success. Doing so leaves you less equipped to mitigate other less than optimal choices without building those abilities back up.

The risk vs. reward is perfectly executed. Highly recommended.

Great thematic touch

Very well designed and produced game. High quality components and an immersive experience. It has great thematic connections with things like the reel mechanism and the randomness of catching the fish. All around, great game and I underrated

Nice at two. Great solo mode.

This game has a nice and relaxing summer feel. Great summer game with a good theme. The mechanics and choice are also interesting.
