Fish

Fish are catchable when fishing using a fishing pole. They can be found in the ocean, lake or river, and some are unique to either day or night. Fish are used in cooking and town hall collections. The length of each fish type is recorded, and viewable on the collection screen.

Fishing can be done near any body of water, but some places have lower rates of fish. These areas have a higher chance to reel in junk, which can be sold for a small profit or saved and turned into useful items with the recycler.

Mini Game

When a fish is hooked a window appears with a fishing mini-game. The player must move the highlighted area up or down to keep the fish inside it. While the fish overlaps it the catch meter will fill, while the fish is not inside the area it will decrease. If the catch meter fills completely the fish is caught, if it becomes completely empty the fish escapes.
