The verdict…
Fish With Attitude is a great game for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 devices that allows you to cultivate a virtual aquarium on your Windows 8 device. The cute graphics of the game coupled with the incredible smoothness of the game made it my instant favourite, however I did feel at times that the game was getting a bit slow. Especially while breeding the fish, the new fish egg takes a lot of minutes to hatch and although that can be sped up using pearls, it still gets a bit annoying. Leaving that aside, the game is flawless and works incredibly!
I rate it a 4.5 out of 5.
