Let me start out by saying how strange it was to come across this game. I mean really, fishing is usually something that  is tacked on to the side of a game and not the main focus. However that being said this game is charming and fairly reminiscent of Earth Bound in structure.

Graphics: 5
The graphics in this game are pretty lack luster until you really get into the fishing. The animations concerning your hook drifting down into the depths of the water and hooking the fish are actually pretty good.

Sound: 8
Everything gets a sound, and the sounds of the water splashing for varies reasons are fairly accurate.

Addictiveness: 5
Truthfully this is not a game I find myself coming back to very often. As fun as it is I can't bring myself to play it more than maybe once every ten or so years.

Story: 3
Your character leaves home to catch the "River King". That's it. There isn't anything other than that.

Depth: 5
The range of fish that can be caught is legitimately well rounded and full. That being said, the rest of the game doesn't have too much to offer. The towns are only there for some tiny side quests involving catching a specific type or size of fish, buying items at a shop, or resting.

Difficulty: 9
I know the difficulty score doesn't seem to match the rest of them, but that doesn't mean I'm padding the numbers for a better score. The combat and money management parts of this game are where this comes in. The combat is done in the same fashion as Earth Bound, first-person and turn based. The weapons you have access through the game aren't really that great and you will end up struggling quite a bit at first. And money management is really your biggest enemy. You have to either buy bait or hope to find some during a battle. After buying the bait (or lure) you'll need to buy a better fishing pole, weapon, and rest at an inn.

Overall: 5.8
So there you have it. This game is charming mostly in its novelty and challenging like any RPG can be. I feel that every fan of the RPG genre should give this one a shot if nothing else to say that they have played it.

This is a pretty okay review. Not a great one, but not terrible either. More detail to your reviews next time, it makes them much better. It also makes people want to read it more.

SadSecrets : Thank you for the advice, I might edit this review when I get some more time.
