User Reviews

Nostalgia and retro charm with attractive visuals are praised, but stability issues dominate: crashes, startup failures, and bugs undermine the experience. Refund frustration and lack of cross-device progress add to dissatisfaction. The core appeal remains strong for many, yet ongoing updates and support are critical to improve reliability.
Pros
  • Nostalgic appeal and sentimental value for the classic Fish Tycoon experience.
  • Beautiful graphics and relaxing, calming gameplay.
  • Enduring classic feel with a comforting retro vibe that many players still love.
  • Some reviewers still rate it among the best mobile games and as a reliable nostalgia pick.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes on startup or failure to load the game.
  • Non-working app after purchase, with refund requests and reports of money wasted.
  • Persistent bugs and stability issues across devices (e.g., teleporting fish, lingering sounds).
  • Lack of updates/bug fixes for modern devices and compatibility concerns.
  • Progress is not transferable when changing devices, forcing players to start over.
Recent reviews
The game crashes immediately after launch no matter what. They either need to update this app or take it down, they must only keep it up to scam the few people that try to buy and play it. Unfortunate as this game and many of their other games were favorites of mine as a kid. Don’t waste your dollar.

Its a good game fun and entertaining, i found it off a Pinterest post and thought i should get it. The only thing o dont like about it is the other games 2 is ok but three is just ai slop, other than that all u mostly do is breed and sell but somehow its fun. If ur looking for a good relaxing grinable game i would say this is your best option especially if you dont have enough or hate doing the hard stuff for fish keeping. 8/10
