Introduction

In this game you get the chance to become a captain of one of five Bering Sea crab boats. You can fish during the King and Opelio crab seasons. This includes setting and taking your own pots, hiring and managing a crew of 5, upgrading and customizing your ship, and more.

Graphics

The graphics are ok, but the graphics in certain areas of the game are certainly better than others. The water is very well done and is probably the best water graphics of any game I've ever seen. The graphics in other areas are.... Not so good. The way the rest of the game looks will remind you of a Playstation 2 game.

Sound

There are very good enviromental sounds. You can hear seagulls, seals, the waves hitting the boat. The music is also very well written (Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi included) even though there are only six or eight peices, they flow very well with the game.

Gameplay

The gameplay is very simple. Hire a crew, manage ship, set pots, haul pots, sell crab. The game does get very tiring and repetitive but it is kind of addicting. The whole point of the game is tio make money but the only thing you can use the money for is upgrading and maintaining your ship.

Lastability

Although the game is addicting and is pretty fun it gets old after awhile and it's hard to play the game for more than a few hours at a time. There are about 50 missions (about 7 are tutorials though), a minigame where you have to throw a hook to snag pots as they go by, a virtual tour of the Northwestern (Captain Sig's ship), as well as about 100 videos that are taken from Deadliest Catch (Althoug a few are exclusives).

Overall

This is a pretty good game, but just pretty good. If you like the show this might be worth checking out but otherwise this isn't the game for you. After about a week this game will feel old. Also another major thing is all the text in the game is too small to read. You can't decipher anything other than what the letters look like forcing you to guess about the vital information you're told.
