What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Pretty boring. Honestly, hard to even call this a game. I mean, if you're budget demands you play free games, or you want a game for kids, maybe? But this was just not fun for me. 3/103 found this helpful
Yes this isn't really a "Game" nor is it an actual "Simulation". But my 5 year old non verbal severely autistic son absolutely loves playing this game, it really calms him down and is the right amount of stimulation for him. Thumbs up to the developer, you have my positive review. Desperately trying to find more basic relaxing interactive 'simulations' like this.3 found this helpful
Not even sure what to say about this, it's barely a game, but it does get a recommend from me as it does function as intended, but don't waste your time, this is a proof of concept. Even in 2015 this would have been mediocre.2 found this helpful
I played the tutorial then quit. I thought I'd give it a chance, despite the mixed reviews. But honestly, I want my 10 minutes back. The controls were glitchy. When it said click anywhere to continue, I would click anywhere and everywhere, and nothing would happen. I took longer trying to get the instructions to disappear than I did playing. The tutorial did nothing than say click here for this fish, this shellfish, for the otter. It mentioned something about making more oxygen, but I didn't know if I was adding oxygen or depriving my animals of it. The game isn't intuitive, and even with an update, I doubt I'd try to play it again. I doubt this game was worth playing in 2015.
For me , it's just clicking and spawning. But kinda mind relaxing too...
I wouldnt exactly call it a game more like a pond simulator you can mess with for a few minutes its a decent time but not exactly a game
