Line 34:
* All ''[[Harvest Moon]]'' games feature this trope as a fairly enjoyable but not particularly essential side activity. Occasionally fishing may trigger rewards or bonuses in the game. In ''The Island that Grows with You'' (a.k.a. ''Island of Happiness''), catching and shipping 50 fish is the only way to get a certain character to move in.
* ''[[Lego Island]] 2'' has a fishing minigame too.
* ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' required the player to catch and feed fish to the character's sick adoptive grandfather. Feeding him slow fish would kill him rapidly. Moderately speedy fish would also kill him, just more slowly. The only way to save Cid is by a steady diet of fast fish. However, whether he lives or dies makes no difference to the plot. If he dies, however, the character is [[Driven to Suicide]] via a [[Leap of Faith]] over her lousy luck at fishing.
* ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]'' had a fishing minigame, notable because its completion was one of the conditions needed to obtain the Wrymhero Blade, arguably one of the [[Infinity+1 Sword|most powerful weapons in the game]].
* ''[[Legend of Legaia]]'' has a very good one of these.
* ''[[Final Fantasy]] Fables: [[
* ''[[The Amazon Trail]]'' had a fishing minigame, but it made sense. You're on a boat. On a river. You need food. How else are you going to get it? As does later versions of ''[[Oregon Trail]]''.
* ''[[Summon Night]]: Swordcraft Story 2'' has this as minigame. You can gain points which can be traded for hard to find items.

** And ''[[Final Fantasy XI]]'', which introduced a minor minigame aspect in an attempt to ward off botters. It didn't work, as a botter could simply hack the client and tell the server they mined a fish, and the server gleefully gives it to them every time.
** ''City of Heroes'' does ''not'' have a fishing minigame, however perhaps as a parody it has a fishing emote.
** [[Ultima Online]] has a full regular skill for fishing.
** [[
** The 1.8 patch for Rift added a new Fishing skill and a companion Survival skill. You can make cakes with some of the fish. Don't necessarily think about that too hard.
