i must have been living under a rock, because i only heard about this game recently on twitter when i saw that dave was getting a skin in fortnite. i thought that he looked so sweet, so i checked out this game on steam. i was a little unsure about the trailer because i get kind of nervous with unfamiliar mechanics and i’m pretty achievement-driven in my games lol, but the reviews seemed really positive. i am SO glad i purchased this game and took the plunge and bought all the dlc. the gameplay is sooo, so relaxing. the boss fights aren't too easy, but definitely not hard either; the perfect in-between. each day in-game, i can't wait to work in the sushi bar. i get excited when i catch new fish and love the challenge of catching them all in the best quality, the characters are real and charming, the colours are beautiful, the minigames are fun, and more. i've already sunk in nearly 50 hours, and i am so excited to sink in even more!
继2077第二个戒断反应严重的游戏 蓝洞是鲜活的 以至于从来没有在任何一个游戏中这样真切地潜入过一片海 阳光穿透海边 鱼群从身边擦身而过 看着氧气计一点点往下掉 这座像素小岛带来游戏中久违地生活气息——傍晚回到寿司店/烧烤店 被居酒屋暖黄色灯光包裹 听大叔一边切鱼一边和你唠嗑的踏实感 在这样的节奏 切切实实找到了现实生活中快要忘记的平凡感 顺带一提配乐也是做的相当用心 最喜欢农场和冰河时代的 听久了真的会有鸡皮疙瘩
Addictive but boring. The actual diving and restaurant management are mechanically solid and fun, with no noticeable bugs. However, the game gets bogged down by uninspired writing, humor that tries way too hard, and a flood of meaningless minigames. If you need a compelling story or genuine charm to keep you invested in a 30-hour loop, the solid gameplay underneath isn't quite enough to save it.
可以给一个赞吗,我想要那该死的steam点数去买头像跟背景,谢谢大家,祝大家财源广进,顺风顺水QWQ
It has a lot of charm, looks great, and the base game is a lot of fun. I'm not going to recommend it however, because after every couple dives a new mechanic is introduced, a new stupid minigame, a farming patch, a fish farm, a stupid tamagotchi, gambling games, even a copy of Balatro added as part of a crossover (nice immersion breaker for you there). Every new smartphone app filled me with dread. Devs have never heard of feature creep. The game should've sticked to diving, sushi, perhaps some collectible sea-life photos, couple underwater events and just have a clean game without too many things.
it took me way too many hours to decide that this game just isn't very fun, mostly because its a pretty great game that is borderline ruined by a few very perplexing design choices. I used to play a ♥♥♥♥ load of hungry shark as a kid so I always assumed this game would appeal to me, but the diving segment really falls flat in every conceivable way. Movement is painfully slow and every input (interacting with items, using a weapon, using an item) completely halts the players movement, making movement a chore and combat far more annoying than it has any reason being. The weapons themselves have such limited range and the arc you're allowed to use them in is comedically small. Coupling this with the inability to move makes it frustrating to catch anything because the devs decided that the fish are allowed to move and you aren't. Also I find it kind of silly that a game that prides itself on being aesthetically pleasing is capped at 60fps. I hate to say it but its 2026, 60fps on modern hardware is a slideshow. I was really looking forward to this game as I appreciated the emphasis on long-term play with the sheer amount of different content, but after 12 hours of gameplay I just don't see it getting better.
Chill, kafa dağıtmalık, oynarken bir yandan kenarda bir şey izlemelik bir oyun. Tabii oyun biraz kendini fazla ciddiye alıyor, sürekli anlamsız uzun birbirinden sikko diyaloglara boğuyor. "Çenenizin yayını sikkeyim mq bir durun artık" dedim ben sahşen, Dave kardeş kusura bakmasın cobra'nın da mq o kusura bakmaz, Fedon'a benziyor zaten. Bir noktadan sonra oyunun döngüsü ciddi mana da sıktı ve sadece hızla bitirip kapatayım diye devam ettim ki o da son 6-8 saatlik kısmıydı oyunun. Chill oyun severlere tavsiyemdir ama daha önce benzer oyunlar oynamadıysanız arkadaşınız eşiniz dostunuz övdü diye almayın. Biraz pahalı indirime girince almanızı tavsiye ederim kaçıracağınız bir şey yok.
Even Potato Laptop can play this masterpiece, include games within the game
Terriblemente entretenido. Muy buena la mezcla y balance de looteo tranquilo, administrar un restaurante y boss fights. 10/10
Muito divertido, virou um dos meu jogos favoritos, vale a pena platinar!
