An economic strategy game in which the player manages a virtual aquarium. As usually in games of this genre, the player starts with a small business, limited premises and modest funds on the virtual account. Gradually earned money is invested into expansion of the aquarium, new species and taking care of the animals bought previously. All of that increases player’s popularity and income.
Megaquarium is an economic strategy game released on PC. The title was developed by Twice Circled, the creators of the well-received game Big Pharma.
The game focuses on managing an aquarium. As in many other economic strategy games, the beginnings are humble – the player starts with a small room and enough money to create a small exposition. The money earned from the visitors is invested into new aquariums and more exotic fish. This increases popularity of the business and the income. Megaquarium for PC features a large variety of fish types, each with unique needs that must be satisfied for its statistics to grow. The player must consider the behavior of each fish – otherwise some fish might eat other ones. It is also possible to breed the fish. Available rooms are always small and the player will spend much time on planning the placement of aquariums in order to maximize available space while providing good conditions for the employees and clients. Each water tank can be manually decorated.
The player must also hire employees and secure their happiness and development of skills. Unhappy employee will leave the company and the player will lose funds invested in his training. Employees, visitors and fish are partially unpredictable, frequently forcing the player to look for a solution to a situation he cannot fully control.

God is a Geek: 9 / 10
A charming management game that's designed entirely for your convenience. Very easy to learn, with enough complexity to keep you entertained for hours.

Megaquarium is a fintastic game to relax and unwind with at the end of a long day. I like to couple that with some of my favorite sushi rolls, but to each their own. Here I am, nine levels later and still having a lot of fun trying to make the best aquarium ever. Sure, nothing I design will ever rival the Georgia Aquarium, the world's largest aquarium and one I have been to a few times, but that doesn't mean I'll stop trying. There's only one more level for me to tackle, and my fingers are crossed that I can finally get some dolphins to do elaborate hoop routines while whistling the US national anthem for me.

Megaquarium is a robust management simulation game, and the only one allowing you to build your own aquarium. While PC players have been perfecting their exhibits for quite some time, the transition to consoles has been quite smooth. I thoroughly enjoy how the game operates using a controller, although without going through the tutorial, you may be a bit lost. Many advanced elements slowly creep into the experience, such as ensuring your bigger fish don't eat the smaller ones, properly decorating aquariums to keep skittish fish calm, balancing the amount of a single species to keep them happy.
