Game InfoEdit

Bonus resource.

• Base yield:
  • 1 Food
• Modifiers:
  • +1 Food from Fishing Boats improvement
  • +1 Food, +1 Production from Lighthouse
  • +1 Production, +1 Gold from Seaport

StrategyEdit

As the only sea bonus resource, and one of the few sea resources in general, Fish is very important for all civilizations, but especially those that depend on the sea to thrive. Fish is mainly a source of Food, but with the construction of a Lighthouse and a Seaport along with the Compass tech, the resource gains also Production and Gold output. Their maximum yield when worked is +3 Food, +2 Production, and +1 Gold.

Civilopedia entryEdit

Fish have been an important source of protein for coastal dwellers for all of history. Fish remain an important foodstuff in the 21st century - so much so that there is increasing danger of depopulating the world's oceans of edible fish entirely.
