Review: Facebook's Fishville

In Fishville you can purchase a variety of fish for your tank. The higher the level you are in the game, the more of a selection you will have to choose from. You start off with only fifteen fish in your first tank.

When your fish have reached adulthood you can sell them for coins and experience and then repeat the cycle of buying, growing and selling them to save up for decorations you want in your tank, and to level up.

Be mindful of the time required to come back and feed your fish before you purchase them. You can buy fish that grow in a few minutes or in over a day, so pick one that you will be able to take care of. Your fish will die if they are not fed.

As with all aspects of gameplay in Fishville you are limited in what you can purchase at the store to spice up the look of your tank. There are three different areas at the store for you to check for things to add.

Click the "Decorations" button and you see cool items to put in your tank like a mini beach ball, a skull, and even a hobbit hole.

Visit the "Plants" section of the store to make your tank feel like it has some natural environment- your fish will enjoy it and it adds a lot of color. You can also put big rocks in your tank.

Go to "Environments" to change the background of your tank, and to change the kind of rocks, or sand for the tank floor.

Just like in Farmville, you can add neighbors in Fishville. You will actually need a certain number of neighbors to buy additional tanks. Invite your friends to join you in using your creative side to design the coolest looking tank!

You will be invited to help out your Facebook friends take care of their tanks. You will cool the temperature of the water and clean off the algae buildup on the glass. Helping your friends earns you extra experience and coins as well!

You can also send and receive gifts from your friends. Most of the gifts are decorations, or plants, but they also have a few ocean creatures to spruce up your tank, like clams and sea snails.

The final rating for Fishville is a pretty solid four. The rating is based on several factors such as it being a free-to-play game, a Facebook game,
