Pocket ponds

So calming and soothing, especially the sound effects- the rippling water, the birdsong, the calls of geese flying overhead. It’s tempting to spend ( real) money rather than take the long slow route of breeding and selling to make Koins, but I am resisting after spending a few pounds.

There are a few faults the devs need to correct

This had the potential to be a great game, especially this year, 2020, when a relaxing & entertaining game to help relieve anxiety would be a godsend. Unfortunately the game has a tendency to eat money with nothing to show for it. I’ve not had the game long but already discovered that trying to fish for koi is a no no. Have twice caught koi and because there is no way to accept the fish you’ve caught, just a throw back button, have lost the coins and the fish. It’s also very tempting to spend real money on fish, decor etc, but reading that a lot of people have lost all their fish through no fault of their own after not being able to visit their pond for a few days & as a pensioner I’m very reluctant to carry on with the game, which is a shame.

Crashed and burned

Developer never ever replies to emails. No matter how serious you will not get a reply. The app was dead for over a week resulting in 166 of my mostly very rare fish being dead when the game finally loaded up again. Obviously not my fault I couldn’t keep the fish going so it is the developers responsibility to revive the fish rather than me pay for each one to be revived but my emails haven’t had a reply and a week later my fish are still dead. Stay away from this game and all games by this developer.
