Whilst I wait for money I can do other productive things. I wish that there were less adds though, I’m sick of waiting for adds to finish or turning down offers. The sailor says stuff very clear and I know what he means. Every thing is clearly labeled and things are good. I wish that there were other ways to receive gems because I’m not going to spend money on this game. Overall, I like this But I think it has room for some\a lot of room for improvement. ### 2/5 — Avis *2025-06-06* Le jeu est bien mais j’ai remarqué que je me fais arnaquer au niveau des pubs, je n’ai pas les récompenses quand j’en regarde, bug à corriger ou fais exprès ?? ### 4/5 — Honest to God review. *2025-05-15, version 4.5* No bot nonsense here. The game is good. I actually really enjoyed it. Really engaging. You progress FAST, and I mean FAST. The downside to that though… You run out of content is a very short time. I’ve played a total of around 3 hours and I’ve completed all the goals and unlocked all areas. There is nothing else after this other than collecting money. Play the game and enjoy it, but don’t spend money on it. You won’t get your worth out of it. The game gets 4/5 for what I played though. If there’s more coming, then I’ll gladly come back. Great job so far, Devs! ### 3/5 — This game could be great if... *2025-03-27, version 4.5* •Ability to customize aquarium with colors/furniture •Ability to rearrange exhibit locations •More fish types/upgrading ship option ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-10-26, version 4.5* This game really pleases my love for the ocean plus no forced adds nothing but perfection ### 5/5 — Me encanta es muy bueno *2024-08-09, version 4.5* Me encanta 😊 es muy divertido y tiene pocos anuncios 🐠🐳🐬🦈🐋🐟🦀🐡🐠🦞🦐🦑👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — In love *2024-08-04, version 4.5* Every other aquarium game on the App Store is cheap and uninteresting but this is fire. I fear this game cooked. The fish look so cute and I’m happy. I can never say no to the seagull tho 😔✊ ### 5/5 — So fun *2024-08-02, version 4.5* Amazing game I love fish and aquariums so it’s good to have a game like this fun and interesting definitely should play. ### 2/5 — Where is the content? *2024-06-22, version 4.5* Downloaded this to play offline on a flight. It was good cause I didn’t have to see the ads whilst offline, and was cute if but a little basic. However I’ve completed the game in less than 24 hrs. Soooo now what? ### 5/5 — The best. *2024-06-15, version 4.5* This is the best app for kids and adults! You can make your own aquarium. ### 5/5 — It’s fish *2024-05-28, version 4.5* I love fish and the graphics are they are good at designing the fish and I really like tycoons ### 5/5 — Hermoso🤩 *2024-04-03, version 4.5* Me gusta mucho ❤️ no le aguan caso a los que se quejan me gusta ### 5/5 — Aquarium *2024-03-07, version 4.5* Love this game ### 4/5 — Fun!! *2023-10-22, version 4.5* This game is hands down my favorite game. It is so much fun, but you do have to watch a lot of ad’s to get things. :( (still my fav game!!) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — crashes *2025-06-04, version 4.5* mine keeps crashing managed ashortburst was goodbut if it foesntget fied ill delete and report ### 1/5 — 튕김 *2025-03-26* 무슨 튜토리얼 하고 이상한 유료페키지 X누르면 튕김 이건 게임하려면 무조건 사라는거?그리고 배 누르기,접속 이거만해도 튕기는건 좀...용량,핸드폰 문제가 아니라 이게 문제임 딴겜,네*버,구* 다 됨 ㅋㅋ 뭔 진행을 못하게 겜만듬? 튜토리얼도 엉성하더라 이회사 따른 수족관게임은 잘만됌.그냥 회사,폰문제가 아니라 이겜이 문제 그냥 진짜 이겜만 문제. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2024-12-10, version 4.5* UPDATE: You cannot restore purchases if you delete the app!! That $10 you spent to remove the ads? GONE! DON’T DOWNLOAD & DON’T PAY FOR ANYTHING IF YOU DO! So, the game is okay. Run of the mill idle game…until you think there are more areas and/or levels. You pay $10 for a game that takes less than a day to complete. A total ripoff ### 1/5 — Wish I could move fish between tanks *2024-01-03, version 4.5* Once you place a fish your stuck with where it is. Doesn't make any sense. Fix this stupid issue ### 1/5 — Endless tutorial. Thanks. Idiot *2023-07-14, version 4.5* For me. There was a glitch where the tutorial went on forever make ads appear 10 times more and a 60 sec video for 4 ads to fit in captain fatty looks goddam ugly ### 1/5 — Ad galore *2023-06-14, version 4.5* It’s all ads !! And very short :/ ### 1/5 — Lack of gameplay *2022-09-13, version 4.5* Extremely short. Not much to the game. Very few features. You can complete the game under a week without spending any money on it. I’d look for other idle games before wasting time on this one. ### 1/5 — Ultra déçu *2022-08-08* Le jeu est bien trop court, les améliorations sont quasiment toutes gratuites. ### 1/5 — Cash Grab *2022-07-31, version 4.5* It’s a fun little game, especially for the theme. But that’s about all it is. I feel like the developers just needed a little extra money for their other games. The potential is there, but you can tell that this is just a cash grab game. Spent $9.99 to remove ads because it was very addictive in the beginning, but that’s all there is to it. Beat the game in less than 2 days. All the upgrades that you do is meaningless because the ad watching “lotto,” is where your main source of income will be. They make it seem like you’ll be collecting fish for each aquarium tank (which I do in real life) but they don’t know the difference between saltwater and freshwater fish. Not only that, but there are not enough space for the amount of “fish,” that they have in the game. The first part of the game is filling out your tanks, but then after that it’s just upgrading things things that means nothing. You can max out every thing and that’ll still take you years to get income no compare to the “ad watching,” seagull. That appears every 30sec. But once you buy the ad remover, that seagull is extended and comes every minute. It’s fun and has so much potential but the purpose of this game is just a cash grab. Would not recommend. ### 1/5 — Schrecklich *2022-06-26* Man kann das Spiel gar nicht richtig spielen , weil man die ganze Zeit Werbung gucken muss, DIE MAN NICHT SKIPPEN KANN !! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Super jeux! *2026-03-24* Jeu assez calme qui demande pas de concentration folle, les graphismes sont tout mignons enfin bref franchement j’aime beaucoup ### 5/5 — Perfect Choice *2026-01-19, version 4.5* Cảm ơn vì đã giúp tôi yêu động vật và đại dương hơn ### 5/5 — NICE *2025-10-07, version 4.5* NICE ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-09-13, version 4.5* I have a great time playing this game ### 5/5 — Oh my god *2025-07-26, version 4.5* This is the best game no ads at all ### 5/5 — Thuỷ cung dành cho cá *2025-06-30, version 4.5* Game rất hay thư giãn ### 5/5 — same game *2025-03-16, version 4.5* this is same dev and like ### 5/5 — The first game I played that was the best one *2025-02-02, version 4.5* The first thing I thought was this is a great game and the game itself looks really good and the gameplay itself is great and it has a great feel to it ### 5/5 — I love your game so much. It’s so realistic and fun and cool. I love how you get fish in the game *2024-11-22, version 4.5* I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it it so much so much. It’s my favorite game. I play it. 24 seven. ### 5/5 — Great tycoon game! *2024-10-30, version 4.5* This is a great game! It is fun and addicting as well as the animation. All the sea creatures you get is super cute and wonderful. You can expand the aquarium which makes me feel a great deal as it feels like an accomplishment. All I want from this game more is more sea creatures. Everything else is great! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
