5.0 out of 5 stars Almost as fun as Fishdom
Fishdom is my absolute favorite match 3 game because you can buy things and create aquariums. Fishdom H20 is very similar except that it is a find hidden items game instead of a match 3. You still earn money instead of points so that you can purchase Fish or Beauty or Comfort for the aquarium you are creating. Each aquarium has 3 levels and things cost more on each...

3.0 out of 5 stars Monotonous
Once you've created all your tanks, it's basically over. I was very disappointed especially after reading the reviews. I'd buy something else if I had to do it over.

Fishdom is my absolute favorite match 3 game because you can buy things and create aquariums. Fishdom H20 is very similar except that it is a find hidden items game instead of a match 3. You still earn money instead of points so that you can purchase Fish or Beauty or Comfort for the aquarium you are creating. Each aquarium has 3 levels and things cost more on each level so this game will provide you with lots of play. I wish there were MORE games were you buy things in the game instead of just earning points - it gives the game more of a "point" - in my opinion anyway. The only other game I've found that does this is FLOWER PARADISE and I recommend it as well (it is a match 3 and you buy things to create your garden - great graphics).

I own 9 hidden object games, from The Hidden Object Show to Ravenhurst, and this is the FUNNIST and most enjoyable game I own. I love the screensaver option and, although the same layouts exist, it's a new game every level. I highly recommend this one if you're going to spend the money.

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Fishdom H2O: Hidden Odyssey [Game Download] (Software Download)
This is the first simulation game I have ever owned, and it is much more fun than I expected. You earn "cash" for fish, decorative and comfort items for your fish tanks by playing what turned out for me to be an addictive little game that gets progressively harder. I have two tanks set up now, and use them as screen savers. My only concern is that once all the tanks have been set up, there is not much else to do. Still, for $6.99, the game is well worth it.

I enjoyed the original Fishdom so much, was hoping for an encore series. This one is very different as you find items in a picture for each play rather than doing the typical match three puzzle. This I find more enjoyable and relaxing. The only problem is that it seems to run slower than the original Fishdom; I have a new computer running Vista, and have never had this occur before. Otherwise, I'd definitively recommend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Hard on the Eyes, January 3, 2010
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Fishdom H2O: Hidden Odyssey [Game Download] (Software Download)
After awhile, finding the hidden objects becomes an eye strain.I wouldn't play more than five minutes.

It doesn't have all the variety of the plain Fishdom. So to me, it's less fun.Also there isn't a variety in music and sound effects while you're playing, just one sound when you find an abject.

It gets boring after a few minutes.I wouldn't recommend it.

Purchased for 5 year old grandson. He loves to search for things in pictures. We play this game together. It entertains both of us for ages. Would recommend to others

Fishdom, Fishdom H2O: Hidden Odyssey, and Fishdom: Spooky Splash all have very high quality graphics and you get to create beautiful aquariums with the points you earn from playing the levels. I give all three of these games from Playrix 5 stars.

Fishdom H2O: Hidden Odyssey is the only one that is a hidden object game. However, even this is different from most hidden object games. The objects are beautifully drawn and extremely well-defined. The objects do not hurt my eyes like most hidden object games. Also, you won't find any pea pods sitting on a cloud in this game. The objects are placed a lot more realistically than in most games.

Another plus for me is the diversity of the game. Some levels require you to find all listed objects. Other levels require you to find one object out of three that are on the screen; another level lets you find all the gold objects you can click on in 30 seconds; another level requires you to find 10 of the same kind of object (e.g., gloves). This diversity keeps the game from becoming monotonous.

Highly recommended!!

My five year-old daughter and I play this game together and she has a lot of fun. She enjoys building her tanks just as much as the hidden object portion of the game. Lovely renderings but not a lot of variety. There seems to be only six or eight backdrops, and after a while the lists and locations get a bit repetitive. Also, unlike other hidden-object-style games, there are no other mini-games to break the monotony. The biggest drawback is that there seems to be no way to save a game in progress. So you are starting over from scratch each time with the same exact lists and locations every time. My daughter has a great time, and there is absolutely nothing scary in this game, unlike a lot of the other hidden object games that would be just a little too spooky for her kindergarten sensibilities. And at the $7 price point, it's a good investment for rainy-day fun. A great game for hand and eye coordination and computer familiarity for the pre-school set. Probably not very exciting for anybody over 7 or 8 who doesn't have their child sitting on their lap.
