Relatively demanding production, dealing with the subject of angling. You can choose from several different water bodies and anglers. Each of these people has been described by specific parameters and abilities.

Bass Strike is another title dealing with angling. However, it should be clearly stated now that the game is more complex than most representatives of the genre, such as the one published on Gamecube Top Angler. As a result, it should fully satisfy the eateries of the species. Noteworthy is the fact that the producer of Bass Strike has already released games of this genre in the past. This included the Championship Bass, designed for the first generation of PlayStation owners.

This production has quite a standard multiplayer for two people, in which the competition is played on a split screen of course. The key point of the program, however, are the modes prepared with a single player in mind. Generally we can choose between four basic play modes. Arcade is characterized by relatively simplified gameplay rules. In the Time Trials we catch as many fish as possible within the time limit set by the game. The practice should be of particular interest to those players who want to get acquainted with each of the five available water areas. We are not restricted in any way here. The most extensive mode is the BASS Masters Classic championships, in which we have to face 49 other anglers, trying of course to catch more title perches.

The player can choose between six different anglers. These characters differ in appearance and not only in appearance. Each of the anglers has been described with a dozen or so specific parameters. In addition, these characters have been endowed with additional skills useful in fishing. The producer of the game also took care of all the additional equipment. It includes, among others, about 40 different types of lures. The control is quite complex. With the help, however, there are indicators visible on the screen, informing about the depth of the lure's immersion, the current time of day or the strength of the wind, among other things. Bass Strike looks relatively good visually. The action can of course be observed from many different cameras (also under water).
