Having a pet is all well and good, but sometimes you forget to feed them or clean them for six or seven months, then the RSPCA get called and things get very messy. Uh, we heard.
So instead of going through all the trouble of actually owning a pet, why not just download Fish Tycoon instead? Because Fish Tycoon is just beautiful. Fish Tycoon is a real-time fish-breeding sim, where you start off with a handful of fish and a solitary tank, and then breed them and care for them and cure them of illnesses while selling your own exotic hybrid fish in your special Fish Tycoon shop. And – because Fish Tycoon operates in real-time – if you turn it off, your fish will breed and continue to grow. The aim of Fish Tycoon is to find the magic seven fish. We haven't got there yet, but we will – and so will you.
