![]() Releasing the sequel to a beloved realtime fish tycoon in a postapocalyptic landscape of """free""* to play** mobile gaming market, riddled with microtransactions, in-app purchases, daily rewards and other variants of FOMO c*ncer, is like trusting a pyromaniac with a matchbox and a night shift guard job at a fireworks factory with dodgy lighting.Īs with any free-to-play game, you're guaranteed to:ġ) Being forced to complete a step-by-step tutorial with no wiggle room for player's personal agency, where you're basically REQUIRED to press A, B, C buttons in that strict order to proceed to your designated skinnerbox cage Ģ) Waste all your first dose starting arsenal of useful items to teach a gullible idiot on how to waste their cash on microtransactions in future ģ) Being introduced to in-game microtransaction store with flashing, jerking, popping in and out shiny items that will help you to speed up the waiting process, that will start preying upon player's lack of fun the moment they hit the mandatory microtransaction roadblock, kindly provided by the "fun police" timer. If you don't have a stable internet connection you won't be able to play this game. I have great internet, but I know a lot of people who might not. It's kind of weird you have to play this game when connected to the internet. Once I complete all these tasks there is legitimately no final reward to show what I've done with my time.ĥ. NO ACHIEVEMENTS? I bred every variety of Spotanus and didn't get an achievement for that? I earned 1 million coins? I didn't get an achievement for that? I created magic fish, I didn't get achievements for that? I feel as though I'm working to find the magic fish, discover every variety of every species and doing other time dedicated things without reward. Without a microtransaction I cannot continue with the goals and it pretty much killed part of the fun.Ĥ. Goals made this game a lot more fun, up until I reached a goal that required me to purchase a 300 gem item from the ingame store. I was looking forward to reaching the 30 day mark, but now I won't bother trying again.ģ. It said the login was paused and after I unpaused it things seemed to continue from the exact day I paused it, but when I checked today the daily login calendar had reset. I paused the game for a day and it interfered with my daily login. Starting off is very difficult if you aren't dedicated enough to try or smart enough to wisely invest your money.Ģ. ![]() They reward regular players with daily logins and gems.ġ. A great game to play in the background of doing other things as it works in real life time.Ĥ. This game keeps the nostalgic feel of the original Fish Tycoon.Ģ.
