Tap. Breed. Collect. Fish Clicker is a relaxed idle game about turning one lonely fish into an ocean full of them. Tap the big fish to earn coins. Spend them on eggs in the shop, and every fish you hatch keeps earning for you — even while the app is closed. CROSS TWO FISH, GET A NEW ONE Put two fish together in a breeding tank and wait. The egg hatches into a species you didn't have before. There are more than 100 fish to find and 92 crossings to discover: the collection shows the ones you're missing as silhouettes, so you always know what's left. WATCH OUT FOR THE LEECHES Leeches turn up and eat into what you earn per tap. Squash them fast or your coins stop coming. WHAT'S IN THE GAME • More than 100 fish to hatch, breed and collect • 3 breeding tanks running at the same time • Passive income while you play, and up to 8 hours of offline earnings • Levels, multiplier bubbles and 10 trophies to unlock • Special fish that only show up at certain hours, on Sundays, or when you're online • Five languages: English, Spanish, Italian, Danish and Norwegian FREE, AND IT STAYS FREE No purchases of any kind, ever. If you want a boost you can watch an ad — double coins, faster breeding, triple experience — but you never have to. Perfect for short breaks: tap for a minute, close the app and come back to a fuller aquarium.
