## Ridiculous Fishing Reviews in United States

### **--- "Needs an update"
Looks zoomed out, and I don’t want to pay for a subscription service just to play the newer odd looking one
-- Human Being. 　, 2024-12-26

### *---- "The fact youre still charging money for this game is disgraceful"
The devs have abandoned their game.
-- 3Sticky, 2024-12-10

### *---- "Unplayable"
I had this game years ago and remember it being a great time and I recently remembered it so I figured why not buy it again. It will not allow things to be purchased from the store and I can tell that there are bugs in the loading screen plus the game is very zoomed out compared to what it used to be. Complete waste of money. If it was the same game I remember then it would be an easy 5 star game.
-- Jared845, 2024-11-30

### ***** "BEST GAME IV’E EVER PLAYED!!!!!!!!!!"
I love love love this game. I dare say it is better than the ex version. 100% best purchase ever made!

-- Onyx Prism, 2024-07-13
