Fish Tycoon

I found Fish Tycoon via the same online game site where I bought Virtual Villagers from. I liked the style of game play enough from the villagers game, I wanted to find another similar game to keep my attention. Fish Tycoon works on a few of the same principles. It's a game that time will continue to pass even when you aren't on the computer. This is something to remember when purchasing a game of this type, as if you are away from your computer for long periods of time, the game will end without you having any control over it. What is the idea of Fish Tycoon? The aim of Fish Tycoon is to buy and sell fish primarily. You need to make ...  Read the complete review

This review appears on ciao as well with little adjustment. Just in case anyone is interested in what I have been doing with my time lately I thought I would write a review to tell them.

This game really tested my patience! I would say that there is quite a bit of brain work needed in raising fish. The aim of this game is to obtain the 7 magic fishes via selective breeding. As in real life, it is hard to raise fishes because you have to maintain their environment and ensure that you continuously research on their environment.

Some hybrids are more fragile than others and so you need better environment of which you have to pay money for it. To get money, you have to breed fishes and sell them off. In the process ...  Read the complete review

I downloaded the free fish tycoon application for my iPhone and had a few hours of fun playing it on the bus. But I was enjoying it so much I thought I'd look around for the PC version, so I could really have a go at it. My lovely boyfriend found it for me, and cos he is just that, lovely, he bought it for me! You go to the last day of work website and can either pay by card or paypal, and an email with the key in it is sent to you. There are 3 modes on the game, easy, normal and hard. I'm playing on easy at the moment, as although fun I did find the iPhone game quite tough going. The main idea of the game is to breed fish, sell them on, and ...  Read the complete review

I really did like this game for multiple reasons however, I did really find the game very simplistic to say the least. It is quite similar to Lemonade Tycoon in that the gameplay is really quite limited. Despite there not being very much to do I found the game really enjoyable to play. The game allows you to have your own vitural fish breeding tank and you have the option to create new species which I thought was a really interesting feature. The graphics could definately be improved as they are very simple and only 2D. When compared to modern games I found this game to be very out dated but it would however, be better suited as a mobile PC game. Despite the ...  Read the complete review
