Our take on Fish Tycoon

Rather than using a conventional campaign or level sequence, the game centers on an ongoing aquarium and a hidden genetic objective. Progress comes from testing breeding combinations, caring for fish, and gradually identifying seven special discoveries.

What is Fish Tycoon?

Breed and crossbreed virtual fish while searching for seven Magic Fish hidden within the game’s genetic puzzle.

The aquarium persists between sessions, with new events appearing when the game is reopened. Fish can be cared for, bred, and sold through a virtual pet store, while money from sales funds supplies such as medicine, eggs, and special plants. More than 400 fish species are available to discover. Players can customize tanks with ornaments and select fish for a built-in screensaver mode. The game combines aquarium care, breeding experiments, purchasing supplies, and selling fish in a persistent simulation.
