River Legends

Thank you for making this. The way the joy of fishing is captured plus the nostalgia of of games like this makes this game truly special. Please make more just like this but more :)

Just like fly fishing.

If your a fly fisherman you will dig this game. The scenery is beautiful and the fishing system is solid. I would have appreciated a tippet added to the fly line but that doesn’t change how fun this is to actually play

Controls are sometimes virtual buttons, sometimes touch anywhere, leads to lots of confusion early on. Weird that menu is in your tackle box. No indication on map of whether or not a location is accessible. Once I realized the reeling tension choices were not virtual buttons but touch anywhere, I was able to actually see the gauge and the fishing mechanic started making sense. Every cast is jarring because you don’t see it fly through the air to its destination. Why did you decide to teleport the lure to its destination and skip an actual casting animation? Very weird decision. Just lots of strange interaction choices that imo present a high barrier to entry. Also, would really help with immersion if there was like a motivation for any of this. Quests? A story? Even a light intro that expresses a basic reason for wanting to catch a legend or whatever would have gone a long way to help me feel like there was a reason for any of this. Record of fish caught should be in like a journal and not outside the whole game in the start menu. Hey this journal sounds like a great place to move the menu and maybe a few settings. Maybe a shack we can put trophies in and upgrade? I get it you're a small operation and idk how the heck games are made and maybe it’s a testament to the game that it makes me think of all the other things I want here, but what is vs. what could be is a real distraction. River Legends 2 gonna be off the chain.

Great game, I want more species of fish, also want more lakes, and more stuff to unlock

This game is as close to real fishing as an app-base game can get. The more I play it, the more fun it is.

This game checks all my boxes: -Visually pleasing and retro (bringing back memories of games I have treasured), - Simple controls, - Fishing in my favorite method for my favorite fish (fly fishing for trout), -hidden secrets in the game have been fun to uncover. All in all this is a game I have never known I needed. Thank you! It is a favorite!

I was on a road trip when I saw this game, at first it was a belie hard but I started to reel in big fish and then it sparked my love for fly fishing in real life, so thank you for the memories

At first I thought you had to continuously tap, not tap and hold…..which made it nearly impossible to catch a fish! My impatience made me leave a poor review…my bad. Great mechanics, adorable pixel art, fun fish fighting! 5 star!

Updated 5/6/21: Very responsive developer took care of my issue quickly and now I can enjoy the game in all it’s glory. Update 4/28/21: developer thanks for your quick response. I see you sent the link for the iPad version of this game, but why wasn’t that available when the game was released? I checked after downloading this and realizing it was for the iPhone. And why isn’t this a universal app if there is an iPad version now? I can’t pay for this game again. Can I give you the iPhone version back and receive the iPad version instead? Thanks I was excited to get this game, I’m a big fan of pixel art games. Just after I paid the money for it, I realized I just paid for a game that is built for the IPhone only. That’s a bummer, I like to play on my iPad 11 pro and it’s 2021, needs to have an iPad version for the price.
