Lured In

Game is very nice, only played for a bit so far but im sure i will continue playing it in my free time just to unwind and zone out. Hopefully this review can be helpful for people that consider purchasing and the developer to maybe take my recommendations. the list of things below are just what i've thought of with only half an hour on the game. Likes - - Fish tank decorating (able to scale decorations, rotate, etc with no limit that i can see so far) - Beautiful Pixel-style graphics - Chill gameplay, with lots of built in QoL features for people that want an even more chill experience - Fun mini-games with various fishing mechanics from other games that i've seen that have a fishing feature. Improvements - - Make the fish in the fish tanks feel more alive (they kinda just float around and dont have too much movement) - More decorations, maybe different styles of fish tanks (vertical cylinders, shallow longer tanks, etc) - Make fish "eat" the fish food or go towards where you dropped it when you use the item so it seems like they're attracted to it. Future Content - - More fishing spots (or just more fish added to already existing locations - Upgraded fishing rod to catch the new species added (if the dev chooses to add new fish to the starter pond for example that you could only catch via the upgraded rod) - Fish patterns (Koi having a random pattern out of 100 different ones when caught for example) - Fish variants (Albino, Huge, Tiny, Rare patterns, etc) with all that being said for a game released 2 days ago its an easy 8/10 in my book with LOTS of room to grow! (as long as the dev doesnt abandon it) *cough* webfishing

accidentally killed abuelo..... yolo got an achievement for it though lol

Immediately kill grandpa :D

Okay, I've played eight hours, gotten all of the fish, most of the upgrades, and so feel like I can make a final verdict. Two things to keep in mind is one: I ultimately recommend this game because it's cute and not expensive, and two: the dev is still updating this game, so some aspects I'm currently talking about might not be relevant in the future. Main Pro: Extremely addictive gameplay loop. Main Con: Extremely limited gameplay. Let's start with the con and end with the pro, shall we? Spoilers ahead. The minigames are fun, and the variety of them is a nice touch, but you only have to play this game for an hour to understand it. It is a simple, comforting fish game, which might not be everyone's thing. I personally found myself bored multiple times, with only my inner perfectionist keeping me going. This is somewhat evened out by how small the game is. Yes, it can get repetitive, but it also isn't a long game. Again, I only had to play for eight hours to get ALL of the fish and most of the upgrades, and that was me playing casually, and it did feel like an accomplishment when I did get all of the fish. One aspect of the game is being able to decorate your aquarium, but that's not really a thing. There is a very limited selection of decorations for your aquarium, and you only get to upgrade the size of your aquarium twice. Same with the tanks. There aren't a lot of decorations for your fish tanks, which can make it difficult to make each tank feel like its own thing. Lured In can benefit GREATLY from adding more decor both for to the aquarium and to the fish tanks. Now to discuss the Pro. This game is clean. I encountered zero bugs during my entire eight hours of play. The pixel art is simple and cute, though some fish's art leaves a bit to be desired. While it can get repetitive, I enjoyed the variety of minigames you can play while fishing. Decorating the tanks is a fun past time while waiting for the money to roll in, and the traders add a nice spice. Ascension and Research give this game a good amount of replayability, which is how I got to eight hours of play in the first place. Honestly, this game's strongest trait is the little details. The fish's descriptions got a few good laughs out of me, and I will not be spoiling a single one. You'll have to buy Lured In and find out. Oh, and you can pet the dog. I ultimately recommend this game, especially since the dev is still updating it. The new update added a whole other region and trader, which I enjoyed discovering.

Killed Grandpa and then BECAME HIM. Pretty cool little fishing game :)

Really Cool little Aquarium Tycoon game! 100%'d it in 10 total game time hrs. Took 3 days of AFK Box farming to get the last Legendary Fish.

Game's banging. Needs more content but the devs are working on it.
