Very enjoyable lil desktop game, good for when you just don't know what to do or want to have a side thing while doing something else.
10/10 idle game and the fishing is fun, and it has even SHARKS OMG. Its also just very calm and makes me happy and fun to see so many different fish. Its also very cheap especially as sales and I think it is 100% worth getting if you like idle games and fishing games!! And best part you can decorate and have your own lil fish pond :D
Not many reviews six months after release so I can share why this is a thumbs-up.
This desktop toy has an enjoyable, relaxing loop of fishing and decorating. Catch fish to sell or keep for income, then purchase and place aquarium decorations to attract larger and more valuable fish. I like the pixel graphics and chill music. The journal containing a little description of the real-life fish is appreciated. Just like the description says, this is great to idle along with while working or have in the background.
There are some missing translations, limited decorations, and balance issues for the rarer fish but this is still a good value for the buck I paid.
Fixed an issue where fishing sound effects would still play when the game was muted. Added separate inventory categories for three tiers of decorative items.
