Used to play this when I was around three - four years old. Good game! ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-04-25, version 2.8.4* I love this game so much and I want to tell you something if you’re wondering if you should play this game the answer is yes ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2026-04-24, version 2.8.4* I love zen koi 2 I love it so much it is the only game that gets my husband to love me ### 4/5 — Tem uma presa que me dá ânsia *2026-04-21, version 2.8.4* A presa é tão feia, que para pessoas mais sensíveis como eu, pode dar nojo, quando você expande a lagoa 3 vezes, aparece aqueles bichos que acelera, que aumenta, tem um deles, que é marronzinho que dá uma ânsia danada, mas tirando isso, LandShark, vcs arrasaram em Zen Koi 2 ### 5/5 — Updating the game *2026-04-02, version 2.8.4* I hate how I have to update the game whenever my phone shuts off. But other then that it is a very fun addictive experience I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have something to do when bored!🙃 ### 4/5 — Entspannender Koi-Zuchtsimulator *2026-03-24, version 2.8.4* Definitiv KEIN Spiel für Ungeduldige! Viel passiert hier nicht: man spielt einen Fisch, jagt Futter, verpaart ihn und lässt ihn am Ende als Drachen aufsteigen. Von jedem Koi-Muster gibt es je 16 gewöhnliche und seltene Farbkombinationen. Die Basismuster spawnen immer Partner vom gleichen, vorherigen oder nächsten Muster, oder ab und zu Sammlerkois wenn Events laufen, bei den hübscheren Sammlerkois kommt immer dasselbe Muster, sodass sie leichter zu vervollständigen sind. Durch Zucht und Tausch kann man alle Fische freischalten und wird mit Perlen für komplette Sammlungen und Drachensammlungen (alle 16 steigen lassen) belohnt. Mit Perlen kann man wiederum Upgrades wie mehr Koi-Plätze im Teich (sehr teuer aber lohnt sich) oder Booster kaufen, oder mal ein Ei schneller schlüpfen lassen, was sonst viele Stunden dauert (ist aber nicht ratsam, wenn man nicht haufenweise Geld reinbuttern will). Das Spiel ist niedlich, simpel und nett für zwischendurch, aber man muss viel Geduld mitbringen. Für Leute, die schnell vorankommen wollen, rate ich ab, das ein Fass ohne Boden. Man muss aber kein Geld bezahlen, wenn man es nicht eilig hat. Perlen kann man ansparen, wenn man sie nicht vergeudet. Alle Sammlungen lassen sich erspielen oder mit Freunden tauschen. Auf sozialen Medien finden sich Freundschaftsanzeigen und Tauschbörsen. Damit geht es deutlich leichter und alles bleibt kostenlos. Perlen kann man auch im Spiel sammeln. Zwar nur sehr langsam, aber man bekommt regelmäßig welche und kann sie für Upgrades ansparen. Muss man nicht unbedingt kaufen. Werbungen sind freiwillig, man bekommt je 1 Perle fürs Ansehen, aber dafür sind die Spots inzwischen viel zu lang und repetitiv. Fazit: mit viel Geduld zum entspannten Zocken zwischendurch nicht schlecht. SEHR langsames Tempo, aber man muss nicht zwingend Geld investieren, um weiterzukommen. ### 3/5 — Make friends easier plz *2026-03-17, version 2.8.2* I wish it was easier to make friends on this game i know nobody who plays 😭 ### 5/5 — 100% honest review *2026-03-14, version 2.8.2* imagine the hit game hungry sharks, where you eat other sharks and get so big.. but it's peaceful. you cannot die here. i truly love this game with my entire heart. i eat little guys and make pretty fish. 10/10. MUST DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Tốt *2026-03-05, version 2.8.2* Tốt ### 3/5 — Germ *2026-03-03, version 2.8.1* Hi I love it but".... there is a prey that sticks to the koi!!!! ### 4/5 — Idea *2026-03-01, version 2.8.1* So I like it but maybe have it so there is a custom koi pattern maker *free* and you can paint your own pattern. It would act like a base so you can breed it with another of the same pattern, so like a normal koi pattern.my other one is maybe have a hard mode, where you have health that slowly regenerates, and you get more health the higher your level is, and there could be predators that can be eaten if you out grow them. Just an idea, it would make the game better. ### 5/5 — So Far….. *2026-02-21, version 2.8.1* So far so good. It really does relax me and I feel at peace after and I enjoy the music ### 5/5 — Zen koi *2026-02-16, version 2.8.0* This game is incredible and the babies are sooooo cute ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — My child sucks *2026-07-05, version 2.8.6* That’s why I abandoned him… although good gameplay but… yk ### 1/5 — The new version puts everything behind a paywall *2026-06-22, version 2.8.6* Huge fan of the original. It required relaxed patience. This new version immediately made everything a pay wall. My first egg required a pearl to even be hatched. My very first one. There was one speed boost for the entire pond. All others were pay for. Very disappointed. I deleted this with 15 minutes after seeing the set up. ### 1/5 — Fasszopo *2026-05-19, version 2.8.5* Jo szar na mind1 ### 1/5 — ; ( *2025-11-15, version 2.7.15* Полное г.. ...... Даже скачать не могу чо за х ### 1/5 — Bad experience *2025-11-08, version 2.7.15* Experience is seldom gained, upgrading is slow, and frequent breeding is needed, but the number of fish slots rarely needs to be unlocked. Every time you use a new fish, you should start from a novice, and the points of each upgrade are few. After upgrading, the attribute upgrade is not obvious, and the prey is always faster than you. ### 1/5 — I hate the puffer fish *2024-11-30, version 2.7.4* I can barely even catch it because when even get little near it. It just puffs up so I can’t even do anything also 20 pearls to unlock 1 slot also this game loves money so I do not recommend ### 1/5 — Difficult *2024-09-06, version 2.7.2* Difficult to navigate koi, not to mention it’s unplayable at 30fps ### 1/5 — Good start *2024-08-28, version 2.7.2* It’s very fun and pleasant for about an hour, and then you do the same thing over and over. There’s no point. It’s a “zen” thing so I imagine the point is about the journey or whatever, but my journey was getting bored. ### 1/5 — Misleading Marketing *2024-08-24, version 2.7.2* bought a $2 bundle because there was a no ads symbol on it (presumably meaning that it would remove ads from the game). ads are still in the game >:( ### 1/5 — :) *2024-08-17, version 2.7.2* Игра крутая но вы стырили игру змейка из нокйо ахвы >:[ Ааааааа Ааааааа УЖЕ ЮРУНДУ НЕСУ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Taylor is like a fish too *2026-08-16, version 2.8.6* This game is gone. It is relaxing. It makes you feel calm. It’s fun to play. Try to get fish and you also try to get beat so do you like it tell us in the comments. Have fun. I hope it makes you sleepy at night. ### 5/5 — I love this *2026-08-10, version 2.8.6* I love this game it is the best you can I can you don’t have to say girl stuff and it’s really pretty challenging and it’s like really fun I love it I recommend getting a scan the Cue fish are so pretty especially the dragonfly Fish 🫶🏻🐠🐠🐬 ### 5/5 — Lâu rồi ko chơi *2026-07-30, version 2.8.6* Cũng nhanh thật đã mấy nay rồi ### 5/5 — THE BEST RELAXING GAME EVER!! *2026-07-25, version 2.8.6* The best koi game! 💖 thanks for creating this game! ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-07-15, version 2.8.6* I have never made a review for a game before now. No game has been enough for me to do so. Enjoy this review and get the game☺️. This game has been my go to for many years even when zen koi 1 first came out . It’s a very relaxing game, yes it can get repetitive but I love setting goals and seeing all the collections I have completed. I do hope there can be an update to let us play with the dragons more and make cool designs with the stars instead of kicking is out after it’s competed. Did I mention this game has no ads unless you want to watch some for pearls??!!!! You don’t need to spend thousands of dollars if you don’t want to, just relax play with some fish and dragons, enjoy your time 100/100 recommend this game.Thank you for reading all of this and have a great day/night.☺️ ### 5/5 — 10년전 *2026-07-13, version 2.8.6* 정말 좋아했었는데 사용하던 기기를 바꾸고 게임을 못 찾고 있었는데 드디어 찾았네요. 변함없이 좋습니다 ### 5/5 — I LOVE this game *2026-07-08, version 2.8.6* It’s so calming and relaxing and keeps me busy all summer when I’m bored ### 5/5 — Very relaxing! Recommended! *2026-06-30, version 2.8.6* This game is sooo relaxing! If you ever have a stressful day, you should sit down and play this game! ### 5/5 — Please consider *2026-06-16, version 2.8.6* Maybe you could add free boosts for certain patterns. Also, I love this game. That’s why I’m giving it five stars, but it would be such a good update If you add this. please put this in your next update. ### 5/5 — 🩷🩷🩷 *2026-05-21, version 2.8.5* I have been playing zen koi since I was little,when I ascended my first dragon I was so excited and wanted to play with it I was disappointed when I found I couldn’t. I wished for years I could before I found this game. The second I saw the zen koi title I was excited but nervous it would be a bad cash grab, I was wrong. The playable dragons was a literal dream come true for me and the feature of playing the dragon is something I never would have thought of, it’s AMAZING 💜💜 luv it thanks to the creator(s) it’s part of my childhood now. That’s more calming than anything i thought a game could be🪻💜🦋💜 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
