✦ AI summary

Desktank is a cute desktop companion app that places animated fish on your screen while you work, which players find charming and atmospheric for creating a relaxing ambiance. The free version is well-received as a low-commitment way to try it out, though some players suggest the full version's higher fish cap (100 instead of 25) is worth considering if you want a more populated aquarium effect.

at first i thought that this was a cute novelty but now i like it. the clutter on my screen is fun :) i like seeing fish swim in the way of me making music and being enoying! enough joking, the atmosphere the fhish give is just lovely in all honesty, if you like to have some cute clutter too liven up you'r screen i'd say stick with the free version, but if you'd rather have a mini aquerium when you work i'd say it is worth considering getting the "full" version (it just gives you a cap of 100 fish instead of 25). but i have to say that i have an isue with changing what screen they are on, when i click the arrow to switch to monitor 2 it just restarts and resets my ui settings. but that is my experience! if you don't have that isue then ignore my problem! the app is free after all! but anyways, my conclusion is that this is definetly not just a novelty app, it is an atmospheric gatcha game, but without the micro transactions. 8/10 would smash again!

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
