Fishing Club is a first-person fishing simulator built around catching multiplier-valued fish. The player chooses a risk level and a stake before casting, with manual and automatic modes available in the interface. Bait represents the selected risk setting. A fish may ignore the bait or escape, so the fishing animation is not a promise of a return. Unlike Fishin' Frenzy, this title does not use a conventional reel-and-payline fishing-slot format.

The library also explains how crash and instant-game rounds differ to help put these mechanics in context.
