User Reviews

Players widely praise Fish Out Of Water! as a nostalgic, charming, simple game. However, most reviews condemn the new Halfbrick+ subscription model that gates play behind a subscription, with a steep price and a short free window. They feel the change ruins the nostalgia and would prefer a one-time purchase or ad-supported option. The sentiment toward paywalls and corporate monetization is strong, even as some acknowledge the game's past quality. Some suggest alternative purchase models such as a low one-time price or Apple Arcade.

Pros

Nostalgic and beloved classic that fans remember fondly.
Simple, charming, calming gameplay that remains enjoyable.
Recognized as an award-winning title with enduring appeal.

Cons

Forced Halfbrick+ subscription to play; paywall blocks access to the game.
High cost of the subscription (often cited around $25/year) and perceived greed.
Loss of free-to-play access and a shift from ads to a subscription model.
Very short or limited free play window (e.g., 15–20 minutes) before subscribing.

Recent reviews

It’s absolutely ridiculous to pay a unbelievable subscription to play a mobile game that’s not even all that. I can’t lie the game is fun if you’re extremely bored but paying any type of money for this is just beyond me. Disgusting amounts of greed from the company.

This game was my entire childhood, I played so much I unlocked about 30 or so of every gem every week, it was something I could play when I was stressed and the story and fun facts were something I could talk about for hours, only to learn that they have forced this app into a paid subscription, I understand you have to make money off this stuff in today’s age, but this is ridiculous! They want $25 a Year for a simple mobile game, no longer can I sit and play a game with ads but I’m forced to spend $25 dollars a year because they’ve fallen into corporate greed, this is insufferable, bring back the ads if you need the money so much but you should know that this is the most greedy and selfish change you could’ve possibly made! This game was amazing, but if you want to play a 12+ YEAR OLD MOBILE GAME now you apparently have to break out the wallet.
