Flick Fishing wins the App Store 1m race

June 24th, 2009, 17:34 Posted By: wraggster

We reported on Monday that popular (and brilliant) Firemint title Flight Control had passed the 1m download mark on the Apple App Store – impressive enough, but it seems that the game wasn’t actually the first to reach the seven-figure milestone.
Developer Freeverse is claiming that its title Flick Fishing was the first paid-for app to reach the 1m sales mark – most likely doing so just hours ahead of its aeronautical rival.
Flick Fishing has recently received a 3.0 update that allows gamers to connect with friends on a peer-to-peer network and also allows for a number of new digital items to be bought in-game.

“We couldn’t be happier that so many people decided to put on their virtual fishing cap and give Flick Fishing a try,” Freeverse president and co-founder Ian Lynch Smith stated.
“We’re very proud that over one million players have discovered that Flick Fishing is a great way to enjoy summer fun on your iPhone without the pesky flies and mosquitoes.”
Both games are available to download on the App Store now for 59p each.
