We had been reviewing Fishdom sequels for weeks now at Casualicious and Playrix doesn’t show signs of stopping now that the winter Christmas season is already in the air. Fishdom: Frosty Splash is the third Fishdom sequel we get to review, and right on time against the winter months ahead, you now get to fancy yourself taking care of fishes inside your own decorated Christmas tanks.
Well, getting to the point early, I say that if you like the Fishdom mechanics and just can’t get enough playing it, then you’ll certainly love this game. The main gameplay is still match 3 wherein your objective is to clear all tiles from the board by matching 3 or more same objects on them. Either in timed or relaxed mode, you earn money depending on how well you performed during the match 3, and of course, get to spend that money afterward on the aquarium simulation part of the game.
Aquarium maintenance is still divided into 3 parts for Fishdom: Frosty Splash. Buy Fishes, Beauty and Comfort to liven up your once empty aquarium of busy marine life and decors. In this part, your objective is depending on what you want to see in your tank. Buy all of the fishes and decors, or save enough money to just buy the most expensive ones. It doesn’t matter what you want to do, just make sure you enjoy what you’re doing inside the game.
If you want to, you can also aim for earning the bronze, silver and gold trophies during the aquarium simulation game. By filling up all 3 meters (fish, beauty and comfort), you’re bound to get a trophy for all your efforts. Afterward, you’ll have a choice whether to buy a new tank or to continue earning the next trophy for your current tank. Yep, just like all Fishdom sequels you might have tried these past few weeks.
Fishdom: Frosty Splash does introduce new sets of fishes and decors for you to choose from. Just as the name suggests, it’s all snow and Christmas this time around for your swimming friends. With this, all I can say is: Nice Timing! Really, it’s so easy to get into the festive mood with this game around to play with, and even though I know that all gameplay is the same, I still got addicted for some reason since I really wanted to get that next Christmas decoration into my fish tank at all costs.
As bonuses, you can still take pictures of your tank as you progress during the camera view of the game, and set your tank as a screen saver just through a click of a mouse button. This is just like Spooky Splash and Harvest Splash, so it’s hardly not that unique at this point, but still, it’s always fun to play around and makes the game worth your money considering the bonuses.
Again, getting back to my earliest point, if you like match 3, never played Fishdom before or played Fishdom and can’t get enough of it from the earlier installments, then I say you’ll definitely love Fishdom: Frosty Splash. In my opinion, it’s the better of all 3 Fishdom sequels just because I believe it’s great timing for the festive winter seasons. Well, Spooky Splash is in good timing too, but I like Christmas better than Halloween (and yup, I’m biased when it comes to seasons too).
In the same sense, if you’re expecting more of a groundbreaking uniqueness in gameplay, then go look somewhere else rather than these sequels. Fishdom is designed to be expected and played with its classic gameplay, with large changes in design enough to make fans keep wishing for more.
