Title pretty much says it all! I would say this game is probably 90% done in the same style as Fishdom 3, the big difference being Fishdom 3 is a match 3 game, and Aquascapes is hidden object. I have only got a ways into this game but it's great! Great graphics, music is ok but can be turned down or off if it starts to get to you.

Title pretty much says it all! I would say this game is probably 90% done in the same style as Fishdom 3, the big difference being Fishdom 3 is a match 3 game, and Aquascapes is hidden object. I have only got a ways into this game but it's great! Great graphics, music is ok but can be turned down or off if it starts to get to you. The fish seem of better "quality" than in Fishdom 3, they are different and the colors seem more vibrant. Same premise as Fishdom 3 where you buy fish, decorations and plants, and once you have finished with this aquarium, you can buy another and start decorating complete with changes in backgrounds etc. Relaxed or timed mode, I am not a fan of timed games but you have your choice here. Another great Playrix Game! Keep up the good work developers. So if you loved the Fishdom series or Barn Yarn or the Gardenscape games, this one is for you!! A great relaxing game, nice change of pace from the ones that scare the pants off you, although I do those as well and enjoy them! This one is definitely a MUST HAVE!!! Show less

I recommend this game!

There are lots of aquarium games out there, but imo this is the best! The fish interact with you and each other and are so funny. At times I wanted to stick around to watch them rather than play the HOS. They tell each other stories, and one sang a Beatle song. So funny!

There are 2 levels of play, timed or not. I chose relaxed because it is 3am and I'm not exactly bright eyed.

There are 2 levels of play, timed or not. I chose relaxed because it is 3am and I'm not exactly bright eyed.

I ranked visual quality a little lower because of the murky HOS scenes. After all you are under water, but frankly I don't know how else they could continue to convey that if it was crystal clear.

I leveled up pretty fast and as you do, you can add more fish to the tank. At demo close I had 6. 2 were purchased with shells instead of coins - that's a novel idea.

I'm so excited about this game. It's an aquarium and a HOG. What more could you ask for. Oh, and it's from PlayRix. One of the developers I like best. Show less

I recommend this game!

I own both of the above games, and this one has the GAMEPLAY of FISHDOM H2O and the VISUALS & EXTRAS of FISHDOM 3.

BASED ON DEMO & MANY HOURS WITH BOTH H2O & 3

I own both of the above games, and this one has the GAMEPLAY of FISHDOM H2O and the VISUALS & EXTRAS of FISHDOM 3.

The basic idea is you GO DIVING for treasure to gain COINS so you can buy FISH & ACCESSORIES. The fish TALK to you via little speech bubbles and images in thought ones. These guys can be truly FUNNY. They also demand that you FEED them, keep their aquarium CLEAN, and buy them things.

The diving is your HOS. They come in 3 flavours from what I saw. STANDARD LIST, MULTIPLES OF & SILHOUETTES. The colours are vibrant and beautiful despite being entirely underwater. OBJECTS are easy to see. Lists start small but get longer as you progress.

Not mentioned in the blurb is the EXTRAS:

COLLECTIBLES – shells (3 per ‘level’) that can be used in the shop for special items

SCREENSAVER – you can use any one of your tanks for this, if it’s like the other games it has themed music for each tank that is also played in the sceensaver.

Fishipedia – detailed information on the fish in your tank.

AWARDS & STATISTICS – dozens of them.

Option for SPARKLE HINTS.

Fishdom 3’s screensaver is my alltime favourite, and I am excited about getting this game and playing that “70 exciting hidden object levels” and decorating myself another 8 wondrous aquariums for my screensavers. Show less

I recommend this game!

I love this game. It's so bright and uplifting and great fun for all ages.

You decorate aquariums paying for various items and fish money you earn playing hidden object scenes. The HOG scenes are very bright and crisp and I had no problems finding the items.

The fishies talk to you and sometimes tell you what items they want in their aquariums with a thought bubble. When the fishies are happy ...Show more

The game is not very challening at all but it's such great fun that it is a definite buy for me. Show less

I am absolutely 1000% hooked on this wonderfully amusing, and very different, hidden object aquarium building game! It's the return of the lovable and often hysterically funny fish from the Fishdom universe, where the whimsical fish amuse you between scenes with their wise cracks, tricks,, and just plain banter with each other. I sometimes spend more time watching the fish conversations than I do actually playing.

It's a bright refreshing change from the often too-dark HO games that are so predominant for the genre. (You don't need to spend extra money for a collector's edition to figure out the scenes, either.) You earn money and find 3 shells (new to the Fishdom world) in each scene, which you can then spend to purchase the fish, decorations, plants, backgrounds, and new aquariums. The backgrounds and most of the fish are new as well, and I especially love the Zombie background and decorations.

You also have to keep your aquarium clean and feed the fish (they can be a tad sarcastic if you don't, lol). The one thing that could make this game more fun is if I could talk back to the fish!

Anyone who doesn't try it - just doesn't like to have fun, My #1 recommendation for everyone, ESPECIALLY Fishdom 3 fans! I'm already eager for another version! Show less

I recommend this game!

Aquascapes is such a relaxing, wonderful little game. I love Fishdom 3 and this is very similar except that to earn money you play a HOG. While in the HO scenes be sure to look for seashells that help you purchase some items in the shop.

The game opened automatically in widescreen on my Windows8 laptop. You can choose to play in either relaxed or timed game mode. Another option is that you can turn on sparkles if you want a bit more help.

This is the perfect HO game for when you want to play during a quick break since there is not a story to follow – just a fun and perfect game that is suitable for everyone in the family. Have fun building your aquarium and caring for your fish! Show less

This is a very good hidden object game, just like Fishdom. Same everything except this one is HOS and not Match 3. That is why I probably won't buy since I have the other one.
But it is well worth getting it. Still thinking about it.
Graphics are great . Give it a try.

What a wonderful game for people of all ages! You start out with a western themed aquarium and immediately go to the store to buy your first fish. Now you have to name him or her and feed the fish, clean the algae and make money to buy decorations to keep the fish happy. To make money you will complete HOS as well as to find 3 hidden shells in each scene because some of the items you purchase require shells. There are achievements such as not using the hint system and you can play on relaxed or timed settings. It sounds childish but you become engrossed quickly. Another feature is that you can use your newly decorated aquarium as a computer wallpaper. Enjoy! Show less
