Fishing is relaxing, I hear. You cast your rod into picturesque waters, open a can of lager, and fall asleep until you feel a light tugging on the line. That's how fishing works, right?

Though it may be rather therapeutic in real life, that doesn't sound particularly interesting for a game. That's probably what lead to Strange Flavour's decision to call its brand new iOS fishing game FastFishing. It plays almost exactly like regular fishing except it's much faster and each level is timed. There are 22 levels to cast your reel into and six different areas, ranging from stormy ocean waters to sunny idyllic islands. You can also unlock a variety of new equipment that can be used to catch the numerous different types of fish found in each area.

However, if the slower type of fishing is more your thing, there is a 'Zen Mode' which is much more leisurely and removes the timer entirely.

FastFishing will be available on the App Store for free with in-app purchases on January 22nd. In the meantime, check out the trailer below for a look at the game in action.
