### 4/5 — Good so far

*2021-05-08, version 1.1.8*

Really like this game so far but wish there was an easier way to get clams

### 4/5 — kinda cool

*2021-01-06, version 1.1.8*

Quite a few ads if you leave it connected to the internet. I just shut off the cellular data to it and don’t have any issues. Kinda neat game

### 3/5 — Fine but not very exciting

*2020-09-09, version 1.1.8*

Maybe I haven’t been playing long enough, but this game doesn’t seem to be very exciting. Reminds me of the tomagochi games we played where you had to keep your virtual pet alive. They don’t need much but you have to check on them regularly. I’m still hoping the game picks up more once I get my aquarium going, but so far it’s not very exciting.

### 3/5 — the game

*2020-06-11, version 1.1.8*

it’s good

### 4/5 — It’s okay

*2020-05-16, version 1.1.8*

It’s alright, it asked me to rate it too early to really know but I wanted the clams

### 4/5 — Nice game

*2020-03-06, version 1.1.8*

It’s fun!

### 3/5 — bad combat

*2020-01-05, version 1.1.8*

the combat is a random wheel spin that is slow and boring

### 3/5 — My experience

*2019-09-14, version 1.1.8*

It’s fun but it’s hard to earn coins and things take a while to start

### 4/5 — The pve is fun

*2019-02-09, version 1.1.8*

Fun pve aspect that isn’t usually in tank tasing games, but it’s annoying how the cost to product ratio explodes as you unlock new feeders

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2018-02-13, version 1.1.8*

This seems to be working pretty well for me. Wait times don't bother me because they're not too long. I like that you can pretty much get along without real money, even though there is that option. 

Battles get a little boring, but I'm still learning those, other than that, seems like the best aquarium game I've found so far.

### 4/5 — No problem.

*2017-09-04, version 1.1.7*

Gr8 game. Just make it easier to get clams without having to spend a ton of cash..

### 3/5 — Ok

*2017-07-28, version 1.1.7*

Ok

### 4/5 — Fishy time

*2017-07-20, version 1.1.7*

It's the best fishy game ever

### 1/5 — DO NOT GET THIS GAME!!!!!

*2021-06-24, version 1.1.8*

This game made my phone zoom in.

### 1/5 — Game won’t load

*2020-10-09, version 1.1.8*

It just sits at the full patience bar, doing nothing. Waste of a download.

### 1/5 — Couldn’t Play At All - Froze on Load

*2020-09-11, version 1.1.8*

I have no idea how this plays, because all I ever saw was the opening title screen with a full green loading bar and a random tip at the bottom. Nothing ever happened past that.

### 1/5 — Wait times too long

*2020-09-08, version 1.1.8*

The wait times are too long right off the bat. Half an hour for the first fish to grow and 15 minutes to “grow food”. I thought the attack feature of this game was interesting because I haven’t seen an aquarium game implement anything like that before but it’s really underwhelming. It’s just a wheel that has different options on it that changes every time you spin it. And you don’t just tap on the option that you want when the arrow hits it. It’s completely random where the arrow lands. But also, I killed 3 enemies and got 1 XP. ONE EXPERIENCE. So this is a one star game, my friend. There are better aquarium games out there. Plus, this game hasn’t been updated in years so don’t expect any changes.

### 1/5 — Is this more than a loading screen?

*2019-11-23, version 1.1.8*

I’ve had this app for three days now, and every time I try to launch it, all I get is a green loading bar and some useless tip that I can’t even use.
I’ve tried deleting and getting it back. I’ve restarted my phone. There’s nothing that can help this.

### 1/5 — It Won't Load

*2018-01-02, version 1.1.8*

The game just literally doesn't load. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Sup

*2014-07-02, version 1.1.7*

Sup

### 2/5 — Please do something

*2016-06-10*

I spent a lot of time saving my clams for cross breeding and I had to reset my game because my grow room froze up and I couldn't collect or grow anything, clams are hard to come by unless you spend you hard earned money so please make it easier to get clams cuz now I have to start all over :(

### 2/5 — Meh

*2015-12-14, version 1.1.7*

Meh

### 3/5 — Alright

*2021-08-22, version 1.1.8*

It’s alright but has a few glitches
