Basstour is a tournament fishing game, in which you drive your own customized fishing boat; use all the tools available to win the tournament and catch the biggest fish of the six different lakes. The highlight of this game is how realistic the experience is, since you have to choose the best location, the best way to get there, the right rod and the right tools from your tackle box.

Since many of the aspects of this game are so realistic and the events follow specific situations, Basstour is actually considered more like a simulator than a real game. This title was created by a veteran in fishing tournaments and easy to spot that in the gameplay, since you have so many different options, tools and fishing gear to make the perfect scenario and become an expert fisherman.

If you want to be the best in Basstour, you’ll have to play in the three-day tournament and catch the heaviest five fish limits on each day. The heaviest catch at the end of the tournament is the winner. You’ll have 6 hours to fish each day, but don’t worry for real time, since the clock will only run with your actions; basically everything you do will consume time, so use it wisely.

If you have some knowledge of the waters, you’ll know that the best way to approach fish on a lake is with a throttling motor, but remember that your battery life is limited and you might run out of energy, or gas if you’re using the outboard motor, and you’ll be on real trouble. Use the LCD chart recorder to see the fish below the boat and decide if this is a good place to start fishing.

There are plenty of options within Basstour, but you won’t know them all unless you play it right now. Go ahead and try your luck with Basstour, maybe you’ll end up catching the huge bass Lulu.
