I like how being friendly is rewarded. Get people to react to your aquarium and get some nifty coins for prizes. However, you can just enjoy your own aquarium and the gameplay is very chill and cozy. You can resize your aquarium so you can keep an eye on it while doing other stuff. Cleaning the aquarium, feeding the fish, breeding, and fishing are all super relaxing. There were some issues with the servers (growth problems, game sold too well), but they seem to be working fine now. I'm on my second aquarium now :)

I used to play lots of Happy Aquarium on Facebook as a teen. Tiny Aquarium reminds me a lot of it & scratches that itch perfectly. It's fun, relaxing & really cute. <3

TLDR; This game is a dream come true for fish lovers. 100% recommend to anyone interested. There are plenty of fish to collect, decorations to play with, and people to talk to! This game far exceeded any expectations I had before playing. I haven't even played for that long and I'm incredibly impressed. This game is perfect for anyone who likes the vibes or completionist style of Animal Crossing or Webfishing but is looking for a more casual, in-the-background type of experience. It's a perfect compliment to a study session, late night call with your buddies, or anything else--sorta like Placid Plastic Duck Simulator. I played this game a little as a demo, and the full version of the game is a perfect upgrade to an already relaxing and satisfying experience. I wholeheartedly urge anyone who's considering this game to get it. It's worth the money, and the devs clearly put a lot of love into this game! In my short time playing so far, here are the things I've noticed: Positives: - Your aquarium can accompany you in the corner of your screen while browsing by using tiny mode. For me, it's perfect for studying or completing school work! - Menus are easy on the eyes and straightforward. - 131 total possible fish and variants to collect! A great amount for a game that just released. - Each fish has a cute information blurb that tells you a fun fact about their real-life counterparts and their population status! I think it's a wonderful touch that other games of this type lack. - Controls are straightforward. - Amazing, calm sound effects and music that really immerses you into your tank. Personally, I could watch it for hours. - Many customization options to unlock for your fish tanks. - Quests are short and sweet. Complements the relaxing nature of the game. - Social aspects are quite enjoyable. Just like Webfishing, but more lowkey! - You can leave reactions on other's tanks and receive them too. Always heartwarming to do so, especially after having a nice conversation while fishing together! - Your bait is only consumed if a fish bites, so you can recast as many times as you please. Thank you, devs!! Negatives: - You can only leave 5 reactions per day on other's tanks. I need more!!! - Fishing is a little too brainless. - You can't pop the coin bubbles while in tiny mode. - There's no fish storage option. If you want to go fishing but have full tanks, you can only sell your fish, which means making some hard choices sometimes about who to keep. I had to sell my first fish to make room--RIP, Carl. Possible improvements: - Separate by fish type (ocean, tropical, freshwater/river) in the FishDex. - Allow users to leave notes on each other's tanks. Would make the interaction a lot more personal! - Include the option to reroll quests. Sometimes you get one you can't complete, such as reacting on other's tanks if you've used all 5 already. - Higher rarity fish should be significantly more difficult to catch. Would make fishing more interesting. - Include a fish storage option that also pauses aging/hunger, effectively allowing them to live forever. Sorta like a mini freezer. I don't want to lose the fish I love the most! - Allow a way to remotely sell the fish in your tank while you're out fishing. Currently, you have to leave the group, which interrupts conversations and can be especially annoying if you haven't upgraded your tank size yet. - Expand the fishing area or allow for a customizable user maximum. I find that it gets overwhelming at around 20-25 users as of right now, and the current max is 100. - Introduce a way to disable nametags or enable translucent boats so you can see if rare fish have spawned easier. - Small QoL improvements such as showing a fish's stats upon catch and including a rarity key on the side of the screen while fishing would make for a more satisfying experience, since you only have so much bait or room in your tank! - Allow the option to sell a fish upon catch instead of discard. Overall, this is a wonderful little game made by lovely devs. Now I can finally have an aquarium without spending the money on one IRL!

I decided to do an early review because i want to let people know this is a really cool little fish game! It has a decent amount of depth to it including cross-breeding, fish rarities and genetics and the fishing allows socializing within the game! Feedback regarding issues: Its not without its issues though - mostly Quality of Life is currently missing. Its hard to breed the 2 fish you want to because you cant do that on the fish tab directly. There is no compendium that shows which cross-breeds can result in what. There is no information about how much bait affects anything or what fishing spot rarities actualy do. If the developer improves these points there is no reason not to give it a try! Recommended if you really want it now OR if certain things are fixed.

Do I have less than an hour of gameplay in this? Yes. Is it just simple fimsh game? Yes. Should I be this excited? Who knows. I really do love this though. It's obviously very new and very small, so I find little bugs here and there that I just giggle at but honestly I think that adds to the charm. I was very prepared to pay way more money for this and if I can give donations I just might. This game is bringing my little heart so much joy. I'll be playing this daily for the foreseeable future. Thank you for this absolute gift of a game.
