About This Game

In Fishing for Terrorists you will fight against terrorism as the "heroic" head of a government agency. Your goal is to capture as many terrorists as possible, even if it means stabbing other agencies in the back. Much like Go Fish with action cards, this game reflects in inter-agency squabbling that insiders will recognize all too well. Re-implemented by: Fishing for Terrorists Version 2.0
