ГЭЙГАМЭШ(Гильгамеш-пельмеш): Человечество — стая, что не сможет постичь удовольствие без жертвы.
If you value your sanity, this game is not for you. Hyper-sensitive controls make it infuriating.

Simple game that seems made for mobile, bad controls.
Поиграв в игру, что я называю приличным количеством времени, я пришел к выводу, что плавание с дельфинами - это ответ на многие проблемы современных игр. Для начала, Dolphin Swim - это бесплатная игра, что, к сожалению, в наши дни является редкостью. Конечно, у вас есть «Королевская битва» и другие «командные шутеры от первого лица», но Dolphin Swim делает что-то совсем другое. В нем нет микротранзакций, что уже доказывает, что это на голову выше прочей "бесплатной" ерунды. Здесь нет сюжета, поэтому исключая любые шансы на то, что сюжет будет плохим, это просто чистое, повторяющееся, аркадное развлечение! Персонажи проницательны и сильны, мой личный фаворит - Грин из Гренландии, и я не знаю ни о ком еще, но я определенно предполагаю, что Долл и Фин определенно находятся в каких-то отношениях. Но только время покажет... Если у вас будет свободный час или два, чтобы поиграть в эту игру, вы поймете, что это на самом деле не только великолепная игра, но и красивая! Определенная рекомендация!
[h1]I know dolphins are our friends, but this one just isn't![/h1] Welcome to [i]Dolphin Swim[/i]! An endless runner that will build stress as you try to aim for the 100 point mark (100 seconds straight) on all game modes to get your achievements. Swim until you hit a wall, which will count for an instant death. Click and you'll turn 90 degrees instantly and swim the other direction (If you're up, you'll swim down...and vice versa). There isn't much to say on this one. The main menu's music is annoying, the main game lacks music, the graphics are minimalistic, and the gameplay is simply stress-inducing. Matters are made worse with the developer constantly adding new achievements, making me regret picking up this game in the first place. Aside from that, there honestly is not much else to say about [i]Dolphin Swim[/i]. Some "events" look better than others. Some "events" are more cluttered and lead to more stress on the player's end. If anything, it now feels like the developer is the only one having fun while players groan when they see new achievements, knowing that they'll have to return again for that 100% again only to relive the same stress they had felt they freed themselves of. If stress doesn't bother you and you still want achievements, go ahead and play this. If stress is a problem, however, please do yourself a favor and avoid this game. 1/10 Swim away! SWIM AWAY!!!
You're better off sticking with a game like Echo. This game must be like the E.T. of underwater games. I can usually tolerate a lot of crappy games but this free turd game won't even pop achievements if you are actually sad and crazy enough to start the game, you should at least be rewarded with a pointless achievement or two. Kudos for Steams Quality Control Management Team!
You shouldn't touch this piece of s**t. The graphic of the background hurts in the eyes, the controls are clunky and most times you die is the result from framedrops. Beside that there are time limited achievements, which means you are no longer able to get them, because you had to play the game in the past.
After playing the game for what I describe as a decent amount of time, I have come to the conclusion that dolphin swim is the answer to many of the problems with modern gaming. Dolphin Swim is free-to-play for a start, which is something unfortunately rare these days. Of course you have your "Battle Royales" and other "Team-Based FPS"'s but Dolphin Swim does something very different. It has zero micro-transactions, already proving it is a cut above other 'free-to-play' nonsense. There is no story, therefore eliminating any chance for the plot to be bad, it is just pure, repetitive, arcade fun! The characters are insightful and strong, my personal favourite being Green from Greenland, and I don't know about anyone else, but I'm definitely speculating that Doll and Phin are most definitely in some kind of relationship. But only time will tell... If you happen to have a spare hour or two to play this game, you will realise that it is in fact not only a splendid game, but a beautiful one at that! Definite reccomendation!
[h1][i]Dolphin Swim[/i] is a casual endless runner. It's free.[/h1] In [i]Dolphin Swim[/i] you have one job: stay in the river channel and don't hit the edges. Dolphin swims automatically and changes direction with a click. Goal is to survive as far as possible. There's no variation or new challenges along the way. It's as simple and repetitive as it gets. During gameplay there's no music, just the recurrent swoosh sound of changing direction, though the sound effect has a few variations. The only possible control mechanism is left-clicking with mouse. I'd rather have used some key or a gamepad but there's no option for that. It's good that it's free. However, similar games have existed on Internet since the 90s. It's just good for a quick 100% (finished in less than 10 minutes). EDIT: It's not so quick any longer, since more achievements have been added to play it during different times of year.
