Fishing: North Atlantic
Critic Reviews for Fishing: North Atlantic
Overall Fishing: North Atlantic should scratch any deep sea fishing simulator itch you may have. I felt the degree of difficulty was quite higher than I would have liked overall and the tutorial felt very bare-bones and could've done with more parts popping up as I acquired different gear or ships or crew, etc. I liked what I played, but felt it was made for those who enjoy harder sim type games.
While pretty well every fishing game on Switch has been pretty bad, at least most were playable. This is not
Fishing: North Atlantic is certainly not a revolution, but it is a very good evolution of the first installment, offering new fishing options and old and improved aspects from the original Fishing: Barents Sea. For new players, this is definitely a feat that is unrivalled on the market today, and if you are still hesitant about buying a fishing simulator, we can definitely recommend this title. For die-hard fans of the first installment, this is a nice improvement, and if you liked the first installment, you'll have just as much fun here. Unfortunately, the title is not without its faults, which North Atlantic copied from its older brother. Don't expect any great challenge here either, as the second sequel focuses more on relaxation and recreation. Another big minus are the mediocre textures, which were also already present in the first installment. Despite all this, this is a very good game that no fan of virtual fishing should miss.

This is a very realistic fishing simulator, and it takes time and patience. Being a simulator, that is expected and perfectly fine. You just need to know what you are getting yourself into here. You realistically travel around (for better or worse). You have to manage resources. And the act of fishing itself can be drawn out. It's a fishing simulator that is about as real as you can get. From the sights and sounds of the ocean all around you, to the day-to-day tasks of a real fisherman, it brings together a whole experience of fishing that is worthy of matching up with just about any other fishing simulator out there.
