Empty the ocean with a bucket

It is too expensive for what this game offers. But the title is accurate—you run around with a bucket trying to empty the ocean. So if you buy it, that’s what you get.

Feels like almost no effort was put into this, like it's some kind of tutorial project. You can't see how much money you have unless you view the shop, unique messages are small and show up for short durations, and you can get permanently stuck with no way to fix it. The subtitling for opening sequence feels fully representative of the entire experience. It'd be fine if this were free, but it's asking you to pay more for less.

Interesting idea but not the best setup for a game. Gets boring at about the 50% mark as the major time draw starts being just the walking to and from the ocean. Unfortunately the creator claims there is "achievements" but there aren't any. If you want to waste a few hours on a mindless task, sure, great game for that. Otherwise, I don't see the draw for this game. If the dev did this as their first game, it looks good as a first title.

After an argument with your wife, you tell her you would rather empty the ocean with a bucket than admit you are wrong. Somehow, you get your wish. You wake up on a small island with a bucket in your hand, a toilet in the middle of the island, and a vast ocean stretching out in front of you. There is not much explanation needed about what you are supposed to do. You run to the ocean, scoop water into your bucket, and flush it down the toilet. With each scoop, the sea level drops by a few centimeters and uncovers pieces of junk. Once collected, the junk can be thrown into the trash to earn money, which you then use to buy upgrades. The main upgrades are a better bucket that holds more water and better shoes that increase your speed. As the sea level drops, the distance between the ocean and the toilet grows with every scoop, so speed becomes very important. Other upgrades include increased coin value, a speed boost, and auto dump. Auto dump removes the need to press a button to pour water into the toilet and slightly shortens the required range, meaning the water is dumped automatically when you get close enough. Sadly, the main objects and junk appear only directly in front of y…

This is a great time killer, although if you're anything like me and like to complete a game 100% then you may look elsewhere. I was right on the cusp of 100,000 liters of water and they halted my progress at 92,000. That completely killed the game for me personally just because I like to complete things. If you don't mind progress being halted then I'm certain this would be the game for you!
