Community Insight:
Super fun game, we love having these little fishys to check on.
This game is SO much fun!!! It allows us to get a start at the job we want when we're an adult. And that Job is an aquarists which means we would train sea animals. This game is so much fun and addicting we would recommend to anyone who loves the sea.
Really like this game so far but wish there was an easier way to get clams.
Quite a few ads if you leave it connected to the internet. We just shut off the cellular data to it and dont have any issues. Kinda neat game.
Its alright, it asked us to rate it too early to really know but we wanted the clams.
Fun pve aspect that isnt usually in tank tasing games, but its annoying how the cost to product ratio explodes as you unlock new feeders.
This seems to be working pretty well for us. Wait times don't bother us because they're not too long. We like that you can pretty much get along without real money, even though there is that option. Battles get a little boring, but we're still learning those, other than that, seems like the best aquarium game we've found so far.
Its alright but has a few glitches.
Maybe we havent been playing long enough, but this game doesnt seem to be very exciting. Reminds us of the tomagochi games we played where you had to keep your virtual pet alive. They dont need much but you have to check on them regularly. Im still hoping the game picks up more once we get our aquarium going, but so far its not very exciting.
The combat is a random wheel spin that is slow and boring.
This game made our phone zoom in.
It just sits at the full patience bar, doing nothing. Waste of a download.
We have no idea how this plays, because all we ever saw was the opening title screen with a full green loading bar and a random tip at the bottom. Nothing ever happened past that.
The wait times are too long right off the bat. Half an hour for the first fish to grow and 15 minutes to grow food. We thought the attack feature of this game was interesting because we havent seen an aquarium game implement anything like that before but its really underwhelming. Its just a wheel that has different options on it that changes every time you spin it. And you dont just tap on the option that you want when the arrow hits it. Its completely random where the arrow lands. But also, we killed 3 enemies and got 1 XP. ONE EXPERIENCE. So this is a one star game, our friend. There are better aquarium games out there. Plus, this game hasnt been updated in years so dont expect any changes.
Ive had this app for three days now, and every time we try to launch it, all we get is a green loading bar and some useless tip that we cant even use. Ive tried deleting and getting it back. Ive restarted our phone. Theres nothing that can help this.
The game just literally doesn't load. Thanks.
Only 4 the clams ignore this post.
We enjoy playing this app as a time filler, it is not very demanding and can be opened only when we feel like it.
We love it do much can't stop playing it.
All of the sea creatures are just so adorable and there are so many of levels to fight, for peace, in side this addictive game.
This game is a good game for little kids and is fun for even us we let our brother play it and it is also an addicting game and can be hard to beat dome levels wich makes it realy fun.
Great game just need more clams.
We like the game it is the best fish game we've found.
Nice aquarium app, fighting is a nice touch.
Fun game love how you get to turn a wheel to battle that's fun.
It's a fun game we like it and again it is Addicting.
This is one of the best fish games we have ever played.
It is a fun game but it could use a bit of an update we can get the kill hermit card mission and we killed like 100 times.
Cool game we wish it was easier to gain more money though.
This is a great game full of fish battles, breeding, and raising. We would even pay money for this game.
This game is super fun we love playing it only problem is that there is not a problem! Lol XD.
Was a great game, loved the concept and the battle feature.
Good for being free. A little slow though.
We love this game we could use more free clams though.
Addicting, fun, and great graphics.
This game was amazing it was everything we were looking for.
We love that your fish never die and getting new and awesome fish also we like the challenges.
We would recommend this game for fish people.
It's a pretty cool game, the best aquarium sim game we've come across.
Realy good just make it easier to get sells.
Boring at first but awesome as you go further.
Love Make sure to make more like it.
Really fun we like that it has the added fighting with your fish (but we still don't understand what the spikey ball does) and the fact that the fish don't die! We tend to forget to feed our fish. Anyways super fun game. Best fish game.
This game relaxes us at the same time of letting us get our anger out :D great game.
Fun game for children you can build your own ocean.This is a fun and educational game!! U.
This game is great for kids! They get a taste of how to take care of a fish without the actual mess! We told ours if they take care of their fish in this game they can have a real one.
We like the game its pretty cool especially the attacking part.
Fun for the kids to keep hen entertained and even the adults from time to time.
Not a bad game just keep making it better we don't like that when we're in our fish tank it tends to slide over and part of our screen won't show and it won't let us scroll to make it our whole screen but other than that no complaints.
