### 4/5 — Great!

*2024-03-23*

This game is a lot of fun! The design is beautiful and there are so many fishes to collect! The control is very smooth and handable. I gave only 4 stars, because I think, it would be cool if there where more other animals than fish, for example dolphins, wales, sea horses, more turtles, more rays, jellyfish…
But the game is very good👍👍

### 5/5 — Wow!! 🤩 🤩 🤩

*2023-07-13, version 3*

I loved this game like, a lot. No Wi-Fi, doesn’t take up that much data, realistic movement. I personally love it and I just started not too long ago! Perfect for plane rides and car trips. I haven’t gotten a headache from this like other games, if you need something for a car ride or just a trip of some kind I would highly suggest this game 😃

### 5/5 — Superb

*2021-08-14*

What a great game to test you reaction time and ability to sway pass obstacles. The under water world graphics is excellent

### 5/5 — Very Majestic

*2021-02-15, version 1.62*

The gameplay is addicting and the game offers customization, and other things to collect

### 5/5 — SO GOOD

*2020-11-11, version 1.61*

This is so good it feels like I’m actually in the ocean. I don’t know why this hasn’t got a lot of attention!

### 3/5 — Calming...or could be

*2020-11-10, version 1.6*

I really like the way this game looks and the music. I must have issues because I die constantly. I find the game calming but I wish there was like a free play mode or something where you just swim. No coins or sharks etc. No dying when you hit something. Just free swimming to relax and listen to the music and watch the screen.
