Very good

It is the lovechild of tilt to live and osmos. Great gameplay, black and white graphics add atmosphere. Tilt controls work great.

Rubbish icon though!

Really good....

If you give it a chance. I didn't like it at first but after about 5 levels it grew on me.

A calm danger!

You play the last fish but are you? This game is simple at it's core, tilt to navigate through oil blobs eating food to survive. Levels also combine obstacles which do provide plenty of challenge the further you advance. That along with trying to 3 star each level adding an addictive gameplay element! They also included an arcade mode for added entertainment.

Last Fish is pretty artistic and reminds me of the PSN game Flow. The games black and white theme is awesome but I personally wish there was a hint of color in the game. That would help indicate the toxic water stages better. I was well into the game before I realized certain levels ate my health without hitting the blobs.

This is the type of game made for the platform that works well!

Spooky

A lovely, strange, hypnotic game. Dodging the dark blobs and grabbing the light blobs starts off relaxing enough, then it starts to get quite stressful. Then they send a nasty, dark shadow fish that follows you around and it gets pretty tense. Great little game, can't fault it.

Shallow gameplay.

Pros:
- Great controls. Very easy, very intuitive, very responsive.
- Nice graphics.

Cons:
- Dull, flat and unimpressive music. Same could be said about some sound effects too. Personally, I just turned all of game's sound off and listened to music from Limbo instead. Now that was more like it.
- Very little variation in gameplay. There are whole 45 levels in the game, and yet a lot of them are exactly the same. Really, there's only about 7 different levels, and the rest are just "copy-paste" with very minor alterations. You might as well just stick with the lite version.

Overall it's a nice little game, but it could be SO much more if only its creators put a little more effort into it and added or improved these aspects of the game:
1) Added a bit of a story, explaining what happened, why is that fish the last one, what are those black dots, where they came from, what will happen to the fish, etc.
2) More types of dangers and enemies, that look, move and harm the fish in different ways.
3) More unique levels and modes that don't repeat each other and that require different approaches to win them.

I wish I could say "It's a great game!", but unfortunately right now it's just an OK game.
I'm really hoping to see a sequel that would have all those things that this game lacks.

Powerful Minimalistic Tilter!

The concept of the game is incredibly simple, tilt your device so the fishy runs into the white globs/rings while avoiding the black globs (or deadly black shadow fish that will closely follow you at every turn.

Your specific objectives, however, can vary a bit from mission to mission. Either it is a matter of seeing how quickly you can build up your life to a certain point (by gobbling the white globs as quickly as possible while avoiding the hazardous black globs floating all over the screen), quickly positioning yourslef in scoring rings, or trying to just survive for a certain amount of time (with your end score being based on your ending health). For each of these missions, if successful, you'll be rated 1-3 stars and open up the next mission. Even cooler, at least as far as I'm concerned, is beyond these 0-3 star ratings for each mission, the game will track your best times and scores so even if you already got 3 stars, you can always shoot for an even BETTER score/time.

The other point of these earned stars is to unlock endless arcade modes with no concrete win/loss conditions, just lasting as long as you can. There are at least 5 of these modes to unlock if you acquire enough stars, with your best scores tracked locally and on OF/GC. I've always liked this method of unlocking as not only does it give you some pay off, but you are free to decide how you get the stars...completing 10 levels at 1 star each or 5 levels at 2 stars. Even these Arcade modes are graded 1-3 stars and therefore can help you toward earning enough to unlock further Arcade levels.

Good game..
It was free so no complains...
Unique gameplay..
Simple controls but it works..

Fantastic

This game has a great artistic style to it. Almost everything is in classic black and white and it looks extremely beautiful on a retina display. The game is very smooth and relaxing to play. I cannot believe that this game isn't one of the top 100.

There are tons of levels and gameplay to this. It does feel boring after long play sessions but as a casual pick up and play title, it is very fun. Definitely recommend this.

Hidden Gem

Great game, I loves these dark themed games. Reminds me of limbo, which is a good thing.

Feels good to find a deal on the app store especially when it's free. Congrates on a this gem pyrosphere.

Love This Game!!!!

I would have bought this game had I known about it. It has a beautiful art style and the music that accompanies it is great, it controls well and the levels are challenging but not cheap. A definitely must buy for anyone who like or loved Osmos, similar but also different enough.
