For the management fan who needs a break
When it comes to management sims, Megaquarium is relaxing, intuitive, easy to get to grips with and immediately gratifying. Running a zoo for fish is a novel concept and I have to applaud it for how streamlined the game is. The lay-out and aesthetics are very crisp and plonking down new piscine pastures is a joy. There are a few minor oddities in user interaction that are different from other management games - like info panels and door placement - but the Zen times to be had are worth getting used to. That said, Megaquarium did fail to meet certain expectations I had diving in, and I think it's worth elaborating. I thought this was a so-called "Ecology Puzzler", but Megaquarium fumbles a bit at that. Anyone played a little game called "Reus"? In it, you were the god for a 2D world, tasked with creating life. You'd create your own biomes and in them, put down flora, fauna and minerals. The cute thing was that all these things would support each other. A tile of wolves produces more resources when there's a tile of prey animals nearby. In return, the wolves would increase the wealth of mineral tiles in their territory. It took some puzzling with all tiles being interdependent, but you'd soon create a sprawling ecological web. You'd think Megaquarium - with its different fish species with each their different preferences - would be the same, but it doesn't quite clinch it. Since the game's most important resource is gained from getting visitors to spot a certain fish and it isn't awarded for repeats in other tanks, it veers oddly enough towards a playstyle that seperates species in their own tanks. There are apparently formulas and ways in which diversity is rewarded, but this feedback isn't as evident as I would've liked. But I feel min/maxing in the end, belies Megaquarium. Coming off other games in the genre where every decision is a life or death matter, just feeding the fish is a nice change of pace and Megaquarium presents it in a very accomplished package.
