📖 About This Game

The cold wind blows across an expanse of lake frozen solid by the subzero temperatures. You gather your equipment and begin the journey to find the perfect location to set your shelter on the perfect patch of ice. Will you land the trophy catch or will you go home empty handed? From the first cracks of the ice to the excitement of catching the prize fish, Ice Fisher recreates the experience. Variable settings to simulate differing ice thickness provides scalable playing time. Players alternate turns. On a player turn they will need to strategically choose a location to attempt to catch fish. Utilizing deduction and hidden information analysis they will try to end their turn with a successful catch. Each failed casting on the line provides information about fish habits and should be considered on future turns.
