Boat on Desk

+++55 HOURS OF PLAYTIME AT TIME OF REVIEWING (product received for free)+++
Idle & Incremental Lovers warmly recommends Boat on Desk. As a matter of fact, all reviews from the past week were written while fishing in the background.
Despite its simplicity, Boat on Desk is the ultimate relaxing idler. User interface is great, soundtrack and SFX (with separate sliders) are pretty chill. The few achievements are nice little puzzles.
+ The pixel art, gameplay and user interface are models of simple and elegant design.
+ No goals, just pure relaxation while doing other things on your computer.
+ You're "rewarded" for being active (mouse & keyboard) on your computer, not in the game itself. This is a great feature.
+ You unlock new "cosmetic" boats (no changes in gameplay) as you progress, as well as color tapes representing new soundtracks.
+ Music, SFX and even wave have each their own slider!
+ On top of that, all sound design is great and perfect for relaxation. Special mention for the wave sounds.
+ If you're in for some "play", achievements' descriptions give you nice puzzle hints on how to unlock them.
You can't go wrong with this one, especially at this price. Highly recommended!
*I started a boat business in my attic. The sails are going through the roof.*

I was procrastinating some work and finally got around to do it to farm fishies. Also, I usually need to play music to work but as soon as the game started playing, I didn’t notice I didn’t had my playlist on. The sounds when getting to round numbers of fish felt incredibly rewarding, like an irl checkpoint.
