Have you always wanted a pet, or is your pet too lazy to do anything fun with you? Happy Fish is definitely the game for you. It combines the level progression of 80 different levels as well as the raising of fish to mate and create new fish. Created by Happy Elements, Happy Fish is open for people who have an iOS device that is compatible with all games that have a version of 5.1.1 or higher. This is a pretty old update to iOS devices and the producers are even trying to make updates to the game so that it is compatible with even older devices. Happy Fish is a game that is only available for players who have a good knowledge of Japanese, Korean, or English because the game is only available to change into those languages.
You will have to know those languages pretty decently because it is a pretty big text based game to help explain the game to you originally. The most recent update in Happy happened on June 29 of 2015. This update allowed players to experience some new music as well as get opened up to the House of Romance which allowed players to find new mates for their fish. Happy Fish is a pretty big game requiring a whopping 298MB in order to download, so make sure that you have the available space to download the game. This also means that it is bigger than the average game which is usually about 70MB. It can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
Happy Fish is a game where you can buy fish from the store and then feed them to watch them grow into the fish that you always wanted them to be. Then, players will also be able to choose the fish to do different things like boxer fish or musicians which earn you more coins and more experience points that will help you gain levels. After feeding your fish for long enough, they will start to make these treasures that you can pick up in order to get more coins and be able to buy more fish which are better than those fish and then get better treasures and then repeat the process until you have all the fish possible in the game.
You will be able to play in multiple mini games that the game will allow you to play throughout the course of the game which you can play to earn additional experience points and coins to make the game a bit more fun and to shake things up. Connect to Facebook to play with friends and mate with your friends fish as well as see how your friend is doing and give him a bit of help by feeding his fish or giving him a gift.

One of the most important tips that I can give you is the fact that you should be doing the Daily Jobs that the game offers you. You are able to play your musician that you get in the game as well as be able to play with your fish who are able to box and do the additional mini games which will earn you additional experience points as well as additional coins that you can use later. Another thing that you can do, is to send gifts to your friends who are more likely to send gifts back to you, meaning that both of you will benefit from giving these free gifts to each other.
If you are able to spend a bit of real life money on Happy Fish, it is usually a pretty good idea. In order to access the VIP area, you only have to buy one fishbuck and then you can earn additional rewards through the game like rubies which is yet another feature that is only available for people who can spend real money on the game.
The best way to earn additional coins in Happy Fish is by using the Fortune Fish which can make an upwards of 8.000 coins for you in one day. Another good way to make more money is by selling your fish for additional gems. However, selling fish that usually cost fish bucks is usually not worth it because you can get gems for free, but getting fishbucks costs money, so it isn’t worth the time buying those fish that cost real money for something free in the game.
Happy Fish feels a little bit pay to win with the VIP Center which is only available for players who purchase and then spend the fishbucks that you can buy through using real money in the game. This makes the game feel much more pay to win because the rewards that you receive through the VIP center are pretty overwhelming and makes it so that players who are not willing to spend money on the game are having a more difficult time in the game than players who spend money on the game. The optimum game is one that is based off of skill in the game rather than having more money than your friend to be better than them.
I would say that Happy Fish is a pretty fun game to play with friends and is pretty good for players of any age, but it does require that players be at least 17 years old in order to play the game. I have no clue why, but it asks you this before you are able to download the game. It really doesn’t make sense because truthfully, only players who are below 17 years old might be interested in playing this game because the graphics are pretty childish, so I’m not sure why there is an age requirement on Happy Fish when the game seems to be directed at players who are below the age threshold.
Ratings
Artwork
I would give Happy Fish a 8/10. I think that the artwork is pretty nice in Happy Fish because it does provide a pretty clear and unique look to the fish that you don’t really see in other games as well as the little things that you can do with your fish. One of those things is seeing them playing music which is pretty cool with all the artwork that the game put in. I do think that the game put in a decent focus into making the game pretty good with the amount of effort that they put into the graphics of the game without going too overboard with the artwork.
Music and SFX
I would give Happy Fish a 6/10. I found that the music was pretty nice in making the game more peaceful than anything and making it more dramatic whenever the time arises. I think that the game music was used pretty well in the situations that needed it. I do think that the game benefits from the music because it has a nice song that makes the game more enticing for players to begin playing. The sound effects in Happy Fish were also pretty decent, but it was also kind of over exaggerated. They could have toned down on the sound effects and how loud they were and it wouldn’t be as cheesy as you would want this kind of fish game to be.
Story and Originality
I would give Happy Fish a 6/10. I don’t particularly understand the story, but maybe others will. I don’t see the need for a story anyways because the game is a leveling game where you are trying to feed your fish and then watch them grow to the point where they can make new fish. These kinds of games don’t need a storyline to support the game because it would just be a bad and cheesy story that is really unnecessary to have in a farm-like game. If you think of a game like Pocket Frog, nowhere does there exist any kind of storyline where players have to follow for the gameplay to make sense.
So in Happy Fish, they provide you with a below average story about how you have to take care of the fish and whatnot and then lets your progress through the game without much progression to that storyline which makes it more confusing than anything. I would say that the whole combination of concepts in Happy Fish make it a pretty decent game considering the graphics are also really solid for Happy Fish. Each individual concept in Happy Fish like the feeding and giving birth idea is already used in multiple games, but this level progression as well as collecting all of the fish is a different mix than you are used to seeing in a game. so it is original in its own way, but it also is a bit unoriginal with each individual component separated from the game.
General Gameplay
I would give Happy Fish a 9/10. I think that the gameplay, while fairly simple and easy, composes of a ton of different concepts and then mashed up into this one game, making it pretty interesting to play, but also a bit cluttered. What I mean by that, is that there are a ton of different aspects that the game uses where usually most games go with one aspect, but Happy Fish goes through with multiple aspects. One of those aspects is the feeding fish aspect as well as the giving birth aspect which kind of go together. You have to feed your fish in order for them to grow as well as being able to get them to make new fish.
This is a pretty good concept by itself, but doesn’t always satisfy players for a long period of time. That kind of aspect is like Pocket Frog where there isn’t really anything to do except buy new frogs or get frogs to give birth to new frogs. Another aspect that is mashed up within the game is the level part of the game. You can progress through the 80 different levels that the game has which can either be tiring for players or be something that is really fun and unique. So while the different levels does make things different and kind of shakes things up, it loses that consistency in the game where you are able to take care of your fish over a long period of time without having to worry about them going away after the new level begins. So with the mash-up of concepts, they kind of conflict with each other because there are people who enjoy either one of these aspects, but probably not anyone who enjoys both mixed together because they are small opposites of each other.
I mean small opposites as in that they are opposites, but not that heavily opposite from each other. I think that the friends aspect of the game where you get to go to a friend’s fish tank and be able to feed their fish as well as meet their fish and “make love” with your friend’s fish if you make a connection between devices is pretty good and makes things pretty fun in terms of being able to play with friends. I think that it is fun to connect with your friends, but it feels pretty limited. If you could do something like borrow their fish and bring them into your tank for a certain amount of time, it would be more interesting and more fun because you could use your friend’s fish and kind of brag it off to your friends or something like that.
Addictiveness
I would give Happy Fish a 9/10. I think that Happy Fish as a game is one that people would easily get addicted to as soon as they tried out the game. Happy Fish is one of those collecting, breeding, and then watching them kind of game. It is kind of like Pocket Frog, one of the most popular games in the app store, except with a ton of different new features as well as significantly better graphics than Pocket Frog. This idea of breeding animals together in order to make eggs and then watching them hatch is really entertaining for people to want to try and get the best eggs and then feeling that reward of being able to see what fish that you get out of the whole ordeal.
It is kind of like getting a package in the mail and then being able to open it as soon as you get it. It is really addicting to keep on getting packages so that you get that rush of excitement about whenever you are about to open the package even if you kind of know what is going to be in there. This rush of excitement translates to the game and makes it much more addicting than it should be simply from the other aspects in the game. One of those other aspects in Happy Fish is the feeding of the fish. If you remember Nintendogs from Nintendo, it is kind of like that in some regard. You get to see your fish grow from being a guppy to growing up and then eventually having kids of their own. It’s pretty entertaining to watch them grow and then watch them do stuff for you, like sing, specifically for Happy Fish.
The addictiveness also comes a bit from the fact that you are trying to collect all the fish possible as well as get through all of the levels in the game. Collecting all of the possible fish in the game is addictiveness because it kind of extends from that want to show all of your friends all the fish that you have gotten so that you want to kind of impress them so that they give you praise. It’s that weird kind of feeling that you want to collect all of them even if your friends wouldn’t be that impressed or anything like that. A real life example of this would be something like trying to collect every single barbie doll that was out there. You kind of want to see whether you can collect all of them even though you know it is a waste of money and not worth your time, but you still feel that kind of urge to collect all of the barbie dolls from a sense of necessity.
You can probably see this from several examples of whenever someone just wants to collect something. It is not always just for their need, but they want to show it off to other people. I think that this level progression does make things more interesting which keeps people addicted to the different levels in the game like the alpacas in the game which basically cover your game for a level. So it kind of freshens things up without being too confusing when you enter a new level in Happy Fish.
Overall Rating
Overall, I would give Happy Fish a 7/10.
