Feedback on my Steam page? About Fishing

Hi all! I'm working on About Fishing and would love honest feedback on the Steam page before I push more traffic to it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3856530/

I ran it through a page checker and it scored 84/100 (Very strong). The weakest parts were localization (25), short description (70), capsule visibility (85), so I'd especially like your take on:

1. If English isn't your first language: would a translated store page change anything for you?
2. After reading only the short description, can you tell what you'd actually do in the game?
3. Can you read the title on the capsule at the small size (search results / wishlist)? What genre do you think it is from the capsule alone?

Full breakdown if you're curious: https://www.steampagechecker.com/report/about-fishing

Thanks, and happy to return the favour on your page!

Check each community's rules first; many have a weekly feedback thread or require a gameplay video.
