Gods of Angling tasks you with building a fishing hero from hundreds of character options and watching them progress through an RPG-style journey with minimal intervention. The idle loop has you setting up bait and tackle, then returning hours later to read about their catches and adventures while managing items and skills between sessions. It's designed for players who want a low-commitment game that rewards patience without constant attention-demanding systems.

Lazy AI slop made by some lone dude pretending to be a game developer. Everything from the music to the text to the imagery is AI generated, not an ounce of effort went into anything here, except maybe the attempt to get people to pay $4 for literal garbage. It "..utilizes extremely low system resources." because it's an empty experience with nothing to offer, you'd find more interesting content opening MS Paint, and it would even be hand made! Unlike this slop.
[EDIT] The "developer" gets his friends and family to leave positive reviews to falsify ratings.
I think the sleep meter is fine, but the real world hours it locks to, kinda sucks. If You try to make a new character after 1am and before whatever time later in the morning, your character is forced to sleep. The developer needs to think about the fact that people have different schedules. And forcing sleep when creating a new character if it falls within that time, is just bad design. Just have the character sleep when the sleep meter is drained? The ghoul racial trait can just have the sleep take less time.
All that being said, I actually enjoy the game. It's basic, and could use a little more interactivity, but otherwise, it's exactly what I expected. Gonna give this a positive rating because I like the direction it's heading.
