Rapture 2.0
Theres nothing like the ocean when it comes to perilous beauty.
Its the “survival” part of survival city builder where Aquatico flounders.
The version of Aquatico I had access to only has one difficulty mode: normal.

Its useable, but often provides too much information without offering the info youre actually looking for.
Fortunately, Aquatico comes equipped with a built-in stress-relief system: a pristine ocean teeming with maritime life.
Those are some chill vibes.

Its like an aquarium screensaver on steroids.
There are some intriguing glimmers in the deep dark, however the glow of an anglerfishs lure, perhaps?
The most interesting aspect of Aquatico by far is the extent to which your city relies on automation.

Several years into the game, less than half of my population is even employed.
Now, theres not necessarily anything wrong with that on a conceptual level.
It isnt really possible to realize that vision in Aquatico, though.
