But as soon as I hit the play button it crashes. I tried several times it just crashes so I can’t play it. I have a iPhone 15. ### 3/5 — cannot buy 2nd tank *2025-05-28* only 7 fishes in one tank？？？ ### 3/5 — Lt Beschreibung kann man mehr Tanks kaufen. Wann? *2025-01-10* Wann kann man die Tanks endlich kaufen? Mit nur einem Tank ist das Spiel ja wohl lächerlich dämlich. ### 4/5 — I LOVE IT *2024-03-14, version 1.3.2* The fish are soooo cute but can you please not make things so expensive 🤑🐠 ### 3/5 — Death *2023-04-08, version 1.3.2* Uhhh my fish died and I have no money what to do😢 ### 3/5 — 怎么买不了第二个鱼缸， *2023-04-05* 第二个鱼缸的货架是空的买不了，怎么回事 ### 4/5 — tank two *2023-03-10, version 1.3.2* why there is no tank two to buy ### 2/5 — It’s alright… *2022-05-29, version 1.3.2* I really like this game however the graphics are terrible and the writing is so tiny it bothers me quite a lot. Needs some improvements 😕 ### 3/5 — Should be more ways to get money other then that great game *2021-11-09, version 1.3.2* I love this game but I barely have any fish and I’m low on money and I tried breeding but they just won’t breed please fix this. I also would like If there would be more ways to earn money like daily spins or pay-checks if your doing well. Other then that great game! ### 2/5 — Equipment is too expensive *2021-06-17, version 1.3.2* I think it’s hard to take care of those fish if you only have 300$ ingame! What a dump! At least put like 1000$ or make the items much cheaper. Such a wasted potential... ### 3/5 — Fish tycoon *2021-01-14, version 1.3.2* How to purchase for full version? ### 3/5 — App quit working *2020-11-27, version 1.3.2* I’ve spent countless hours playing this game over the last several months, and suddenly my app will not open. It is not a phone error as i have reset my phone, but an app error and If i remove and reinstall i sill lose my progress. I am so upset that the game has failed in such a way. Also would love to be able to add a tank with in app purchase or something so i do not have to restart withers ### 5/5 — Nostalgic *2020-02-24, version 1.3.2* This game brings back my childhood memories ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No second tank, tanks limited at 7 fishes, unsatisfied with the quality of the game *2026-02-12, version 1.3.2* I got this app for the nostalgia of the old desktop computer game, but the price barriers have left me frustrated and ready to just delete the app. I have bought everything possible in the shop and kept expecting to be able to buy a second tank at some point like it says you can in the menu instructions. Until I came back here and read that you can only do that if you pay for the full version. To max the tanks at 7 fish each and block any advancement takes all the fun out of the game. I don’t even want to continue trying for the magic fish because it’s so frustrating that the lite version is intentionally made to be worse and force you to pay for the full version. Now that I’ve done all I can I will just delete this game because the developers would rather make a buck than let people enjoy a free game that’s been online for decades. ### 1/5 — Won’t even start *2025-03-16, version 1.3.2* The game won’t let me play and keeps crashing. Fix it please ### 1/5 — Im confused.. *2025-01-28, version 1.3.2* So basically, I was doing the yes or no questions from the beginning of the game. I pressed yes for the help question before the game started. When I pressed yes it quickly exit me out the game. So I removed the game and downloaded it back, instead of me putting yes for help I put no and it still logged me out😭!!! Help me find out this issue!!! ### 1/5 — I want the full version *2023-08-08, version 1.3.2* I only have 1 tank 😡😡😡 ### 1/5 — Needs a lot more improvement. *2022-04-08, version 1.3.2* You need to improve the graphics a lot of other stuff and the words are too small to read you must improve your game it needs a lot more improvement trust me that game isn’t gonna get a lot of players for a long time. ### 1/5 — Problem *2020-04-24, version 1.3.2* my fish is getting pregnant but not giving birth i tried three times ### 1/5 — THE FISH DIE SO EARLY ON *2020-03-07, version 1.3.2* The fish die so early on that when THERE IS A THREE HOUR GAP LIKE SEVEN FISH DIE ### 1/5 — Childhood game but.. :( *2019-09-23, version 1.3.2* Only 7 fish per tank? Ridiculous. Tried finding ways to buy the full game, but no option that i can see in the game. Disappointed. Uninstalled right away. To those who wanted to install, don't waste your time, 7 fish per tank means you will struggle to find those magic fish. ### 1/5 — Trash App *2019-07-05, version 1.3.2* Literally deleted all of my fish out of nowhere. Impossible to make money because people won’t buy the fish and even harder to keep fish alive unless you somehow make money to “research environment”. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-06-30, version 1.3.2* This game is terrible. I bought it hoping my 4 and 7 year old grandchildren might enjoy a game without killing and punching. It is impossible to sell fish even changing the prices did not help ( both raising and lowering the price). There were no specific directions on how to encourage the people entering the store to buy the fish. Therefore the player’s money ran out. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 怎么添加鱼的健康值 *2025-11-17* 如题 ### 5/5 — 鱼缸买不了是因为不是付费版本 *2023-12-24* 但是找不到途径进行付费咋整呢，公司是不是在六年前就不运营了？ ### 5/5 — Sympa *2023-04-07* Reposant ca rappelle les tamagochis. Dur d arriver aux 400 especes a trouver ### 5/5 — hello there i’m jinkocookie from roblox *2023-01-17, version 1.3.2* eggscue me but my fishys keeps on dying on turtiol keeps telling me to speak for a stupid shell lol . so how do you get more fishes? what trick is aren’t not supposed to do the tutorial? even webkinz is better then this lol why on the earth the 2 nd fish tycoon fish don’t die? ### 5/5 — HERES WHY YOU DONT HAVE BABIES *2022-05-23, version 1.3.2* The tank your pregnant fish is in is too full. You need to have an empty tank or a tank that has 1-3 fish in it. ✨Do your research✨ ### 5/5 — Waste of time *2022-05-23, version 1.3.2* I did first part of research in environment and all my fish die. Most live til they are almost grown(20) and then as they turn 20 they die. Opened app this morning all my many (baby fish) dead. The few that live will hardly sell. ### 5/5 — so excited *2021-09-12, version 1.3.2* this bring my childhood-happiness back! ### 5/5 — Fish Tycoon lite *2020-10-31, version 1.3.2* A wonderful game once you check the game on the internet for the “goal” reached level 2 in about 3-4 days. Only rotten limitation is the 7 spaces per tank.... they should make it to 21 as described in synopsis. ### 5/5 — Love it *2020-04-30, version 1.3.2* I love how so many people are bagging this game and saying the graphics are bad. This game has been around FOREVER. BEFORE SMARTPHONES EXISTED. OF COURSE THE GRAPHICS ARENT GREAT. But I’ve always loved this game and I’m glad there’s an app version of it ### 5/5 — J adore *2020-04-24* C’est reposant et j’apprécie d’avoir ce jeu gratuit sans publicité. Par contre je n’ai pas trouvé la réponse à ma question, il n y a pas de 2e aquarium dans la version gratuite ? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
