This week’s app of the week should be popular among Seattleites who take pride in the city’s famous fish throwing.

GeekWire host Todd Bishop explains the goal of the Fish Out of Water game app is to fling a fish across the water as far as you possibly can.

“Our fish throwers here, they’ll love it,” says co-host John Cook.

Bishop says the game is very addictive and quickly drew in fellow GeekWire office mates.

“The reason I picked it, is that I downloaded it, an hour later I was still playing,” says Bishop. “It’s a fun game.”

Fish Out of Water is available for 99 cents on iPhones. Coming soon for Android.

GeekWire can be heard on KIRO Radio Saturdays at 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. Available anytime ON DEMAND at KIRORadio.com.
