Game Overview
Fish Rain is a realistic fishing simulation that brings the calm and challenge of angling to your browser. The game features over 200 fish species spread across famous fishing spots worldwide, including Lake Baikal in Russia, the Pripyat River in Ukraine, and waters across South America. Each location offers unique fish behavior, and the dynamic day-night cycle and weather system affect your chances of landing a catch.
Unlike arcade fishing games, Fish Rain focuses on authentic mechanics: selecting the right bait, timing your cast, and reading the conditions. The built-in live chat lets you share catches and trade tips with other anglers in real time, adding a social layer to the experience.

Progression and Economy
Progression in Fish Rain follows a cause-effect loop: catch fish → earn currency → unlock new locations and baits → access rarer species. Early spots offer common fish that sell for modest amounts, but as you unlock premium locations like Lake Baikal, the catches become more valuable and the challenge increases.
The trophy system tracks your best catches by species, recording both name and weight. Completing location-specific catch lists unlocks new fishing spots, so there is always a reason to revisit earlier waters if you missed a species.
Tips for Better Catches
Match Bait to Species
Each fish type has preferred baits. If you keep catching the same species, switch your bait to target something different. The game does not always reveal which bait works best, so experiment and note what attracts rare fish in each location.
Use Weather and Time
The day-night cycle is not just visual. Certain fish are more active at dawn or dusk, while others prefer midday. Combine this with weather conditions—rain and clouds often boost bite rates—to plan your sessions strategically.
- Check weather before casting; cloudy and rainy conditions often help.
- Try different times of day if a species is not biting.
- Revisit early locations with new baits to complete your trophy list.
- Use the chat to ask other players which baits work for rare catches.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using the same bait at every location. Each spot has fish that respond to specific baits.
- Ignoring weather and time. Conditions matter more than many players realize.
- Rushing to reel in. Wait for the hook to set before pulling.
- Skipping early locations. Some rare fish only appear in starter spots.
- Not checking the chat. Other players often share useful bait tips.
Device Notes and Performance
Fish Rain runs in modern browsers on both desktop and mobile. On desktop, a mouse provides precise control for casting and reeling. On mobile, the touch interface adapts well, though smaller screens may make reading fish indicators slightly harder. The game is built on Construct 3, which handles most devices smoothly, but closing other browser tabs can improve frame rate on older hardware.
For the best experience on mobile, play in landscape orientation and use a stable internet connection for live chat features.
Online Play and Safety Notes
Fish Rain includes a live chat feature where players can communicate in real time. This is user-generated content, so standard online safety applies: do not share personal information, and younger players should have parental guidance. The game does not include real-money purchases or gambling mechanics; all in-game currency is earned through fishing.
The live chat is public and unmoderated. Parents should supervise younger players when using this feature.
