A difficult one to review, both good and bad (depending what you want from a game). If you like good graphics then simply....FORGET IT. They are very basic and a bit of an insult to your PC. If you like detailed management games, then you are on to a winner. But beware, I did say 'detailed,' and that is what you can expect. To be successful you will need a good management structure and will probably play the game at the slowest speed (anything faster and you couldn't keep up with events).

I saw this game in the shop and thought "i'll give that a go".That was what i did,gave it a go,then took it back to the shop a week later,really dissapointed.The write up on the box was loads better than the game. You choose a country where you would like to start an aquarium.Then you choose from either scenario playing or free play.(scenario playing gives you objectives to complete,free play just lets you play freely) Your job is to decide what size tanks you want,place the tanks and populate them with fish.You can do this with too options. *Fish for them yourself,using the boat that is in the sea.This can be tricky to start with,because it ...
Products similar to Aquarium (PC)

Well balanced gameplay, nice integration of the book's storyline, good graphics, great sound
Fiddly controls, awkard perspective changes
Evil Genius (PC)
Excellent gameplay, good humour, Good graphics and sound. Easy to control.
Very difficult at later stages, sometimes hard to figure out what to do.
Luxor (PC)
A super addictive game that eats hours.
The music is terribly distracting.
Super Collapse (PC)
Addictive, good variety of modes
Standard mode just degrades to a skill-less click fest
