Ninja Fishing Gamenauts' 2011 game Ninja Fishing is a fishing game where the player fishes for sea creatures and treasure, and slices them with a katana, which rewards cash, upgrades, and collectible loot.https://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/12/technology/for-creators-of-video-games-a-faint-line-on-cloning.html The game has two sections of gameplay: during the fishing stage, the player tilts the screen to control a fishing hook as it descends, and, once successfully reeled in, swipes a finger around the screen to slice fish and treasure while avoiding dynamite, in the style of Fruit Ninja.https://www.pocketgamer.com/ninja-fishing/fish-like-fruit-ninja-ninja-with-ninja-fishing-now-available-for-android/ Ninja Fishing was noted by Gamasutra as being similar to the game mechanics of Radical Fishing by Vlambeer. In 2013, Vlambeer published Ridiculous Fishing, with the highest rated reviews of the year.
