Fishing on the iPhone - this is the case when fully may appear especially built-in accelerometer. Therefore, the quality of toys on the fishing depends entirely on the skill of the developers. I collected five games in a fishing theme. Here we compare them.
iFish
Developer - John Moffet
Cost - $ 0.99
The game has more than 40 locations, each represented by its own static image and a set of individual fish fauna. No zamorochek the settings do not tackle, catch can at once. Throw by moving the device away, the vibration signals a bite. Cuttings, respectively, to make the move to the phone itself. If the cuttings failed, it appears on the screen handle of the coil, which need to be rotated on the screen with the recommended rate. If all goes well, you'll see a fish caught, which you can send to your cart. If the fish got away - see the relevant inscription on the screen. No graphics and management beauties in the game there. Brightens her only good realistic sounds and a large number of locations. Very often, as a bonus on the hook come across an obstruction. Recommend to the acquisition of the toy is quite difficult, because it bored very quickly.
Gone Fishin '
Developer - TapThru Technologies
Cost - $ 0.99
Also very simple fishing simulator. Hold the center button and make a throw. And then rotate the handle of the coil and try to bring the bait fish to his nose, which is reflected on-screen radar. Then, if you're lucky, sweeps and vyvazhivanie. During vyvazhivaniya fish on the top toolbar displays the length of fishing line and the strength of its tension. It is important to maintain a balance, otherwise the production will be missed. Extraction with maximum dimensions will be placed in the list of personal records.
Toy is too simple and absolutely addictive.Schedule, as such, is absent. The only affordable way to control - speed reel handle. You can indulge yourself, but get tired very quickly.
Hooked: Pocket Fishing
Developer - Benjamin Spratling
Cost - $ 0.99
Of all the games described in the price range up to $ 1, this toy is most exciting. After the game, you can choose one of three gaming locations, change tackle, pick the bait. Traditional casting fishing lines. Hold your finger screen, send a fishing line ahead, let go of the finger. The length of the cast appears on the top line in the box next to show the bait and swims up to her big fish. At this point, and you need to do cuttings. And then vyvazhivanie, and the speed of rotation of the spool must not remove the slider from a range bounded by a red dot. The current catch is you can see in the box, Live Well, and the overall success of the visible tabs trophies in the main menu.
The game has good physics - iPhone responds to sound and vibration process vyvazhivaniya, very often fish to melt does not reach, launches. At the same time schedule as such is virtually absent, the image is static, moving only the handle and reel fishing line. But compared with the above toys it is more pleasant and enjoyable.
Flick Fishing
Developer - FreeVerse
Cost - $ 2.99
This toy is more serious. To begin with, that in addition to single player catching it is a championship. And you can compete with the phone or partner. Supports network play, but a rival I did not wait, unfortunately. In the beginning you need to select one of six locations, each of which has unique representatives. When you fill up your luggage all possible trophies in the album there will be no blank pages. At your disposal is a set of nozzles, replacement of rods, reels and fishing line is not provided. Traditional casting - phone traffic. The length of the casting on the strength of shock is independent, but rather is tied to location.In small freshwater casting length rarely exceeds 50 feet, and the sea troll can fly at 150 feet. But as a rule, the length of the cast does not depend on the type of production. We can not say that the physics of the game is realistic. Undercutting as such does not exist if too bite, the fish must be hooked. But will you ever get it - now depends on the speed of rotation of the spool. At the top of the screen there are two dynamically changing stripes - the length of fishing line and the power of resistance of fish. Your task is to hang the fish to the boat, that is, reduce the length of fishing line to zero. From small instances there are no problems, but with the big fish have to tinker. The graphics in this game is very mediocre, although a hint of animation and present. But all done in a very cartoon and far enough away from realism. Although, if not particularly find fault with the graphics, the toy is very entertaining. Especially in multiplayer mode. In a game versus iPhone processor frankly moonlight, so to win the phone when pair game is quite difficult. When playing with a live opponent gain is determined by your skills, so that in case of failure can be trained, or just drink another beer.
Play Flick Fishing can be quite a long time without much straining, the toy is not tiring. You can exit at any moment, all your previous achievements remain. As the main problem filling the pages can be used in the photo, but it will take a little longer than the usual entertainment. Toy time is good and can completely brighten up a winter evening in anticipation of a trip to this fishing trip.
iFishing
Developer - Rocking Pocket Games
Cost - $ 2.99
The most advanced, in my opinion, fishing simulator, comparable, in the opinion of many, with the above-described Flick Fishing. The game has two modes - just fishing and championship. Initially available to you one lake, as the game opened and other locations. On the lake you can swim to the boat, choosing a location for fishing. To control your boat will have to practice, just to swim wherever you want, she does not want. But after a little training could cope with the boat. Bait, you can choose from a fishing box, which can be reached from the menu. Then everything is as usual - we press the screen, doing casting. Toy was the only simulator in which the direction of the casting depends on the direction of motion of your hand. Threw the bait? You can just wait for bite, and you can play in spinning or fly-fishing. For each bait to describe the most optimal depth of the wiring. When biting to do sweeps (iPhone up), then use the coil vyvazhivaem prey. In this game, rotate the handle is not needed, simply hold down the bottom toolbar in the right place. Once the fish will be in cages, it can be photographed and to continue the game. The graphics in this game is mediocre, no animation, no, all images are static. Physics is not bad - iPhone responds to the speed wiring and vyvazhivaniya production. The game may be a good entertainment for knowing English. At the moment of offscreen sound fishing tips and advice, listen to that rather curious. Extraction of the maximum size recorded in the list of personal records. On the same page can be viewed and a list of available fish in this location.
In the end ...
Fishing simulator for iPhone is quite a lot, and you can easily pick out the one that will like it. If you talk about comparing these toys with fishing for NGage II (Hooked ON), then as long as none of the games match the quality of performance with the Nokia can not. Graphics and physics in the game for the NGage is much higher. Although it is not without drawbacks. In particular, it is absolutely not used the accelerator to the use of which is the main focus of games for iPhone. Why this is so - and I do not understand myself. I hope that the new version of Nokia will be fishing for this deficiency deprived. If you refer to a game without fanaticism, we can find pleasure even in a simple simulator. Its main task - rest - they do and are very inexpensive, even by today's challenging times.
