### 5/5 — Great Game

*2024-01-20*

I would love an update, I’m on an older iPhone but this games is cute and simple. The only thing that bothers me is sometimes the mechanics aren’t explained well. It can get very confusing. But I still love the game a lot.

### 5/5 — So cute

*2021-12-27*

Just beat the game. It’s fun, cute, and very passive. No ads, too! I hope more content is added eventually.

### 2/5 — Repetitive

*2020-08-28*

The game starts off well enough and it’s fairly easy to figure out how to navigate once you play for a bit. It’s enjoyable to build up your coins and spend them on improvements, more staff and of course more fish which in turn leads to the ability to generate more coins. That’s really it though - the game is the same all the way through and you huff and puff to build up coins to buy the same things that early on in the game costs 100,000s or millions cheaper. After spending enough time on this game to fill my sea water tank of fish, I don’t see anything more than the same gameplay repeating itself until I suspect I have obtained several million to have a marine tank and extra staff, etc. The game needs more variation to keep it interesting and it has no replayability value. For a paid game, I was hoping for more.

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2020-07-12*

I love that there are no ads. Very cute graphics, plenty of things to do, I can already tell it will take a while to achieve everything. I like that I can pick it up and play whenever and then stop whenever I please. Definitely worth the money. Please add iCloud support between devices!!

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2020-06-06*

Honestly you can’t beat this. I love this game so much it’s really a steal for such a low price.

### 5/5 — Great game for the price you pay

*2020-02-19*

So far I’ve been enjoying this game quiet a bit. It’s a fun business manager with a bit of challenge. $1.99 is good for no adds as well. It is weird how I couldn’t find the game in the search after purchasing it as well? I stumbled on it by accident somehow and I’m glad I bought it when I found it. I don’t know what’s up with that, but keep up the work guys. It’s great.

### 1/5 — Plz make the game to fit iPhone pro max 11

*2020-02-17*

Currently I’m annoyed with how the screen cuts off for iPhone 11 Pro max

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2020-01-29*

It’s a very slow game. Gets boring really quickly. The worst part you have energy but it doesn’t build itself up over time so it need to be purchased really silly

### 5/5 — A true business sim!

*2020-01-06*

I love the fact that this game covers the basic foundation to running a business! It’s so addictive and it can actually teach you something! The only thing that upsets me is how the App Store buried this game! I typed Aquarium Tycoon in the search bar but it never came up... I had to go into purchases to find this game to leave a review. It goes to show how much I really love this game!!! Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review! You are the first reviewer abroad, we are very glad to read this compliment..! We also hope there will be a time that Appstore list us to the top soon!
Thank you again, and please enjoy our game :D
