The gameplay is described as colorful and visually appealing but suffers from confusing mechanics and a freemium model that requires players to spend coins for each shot, leading to frustration. Users suggest that the game would benefit from clearer mechanics, predictable enemy behavior, and a one-time purchase model instead of the current coin system. Overall, the gameplay experience is marred by its complexity and monetization strategy.
“Cell phoney in its gameplay styles but also very posh and graphically colorful.”
“Nothing is labeled, everything costs fishbucks and the gameplay is inexplicable.”
“Each shot costs coins (you can alter the amount of coins per shot) so there's a risk that you run out of coins - and here's the freemium mechanic at work - and you can buy more coins with real money.”
“The best method of success I've had is by aiming for the underbelly or head of a fish if it refuses to die, which kinda works but makes the game incomprehensible in its mechanics.”
“Nothing is labeled, everything costs fishbucks and the gameplay is ... inexplicable.”
