Fish Tycoon is a casual game created and developed by Last Day of Work. One of the top-selling downloadable games of 2004, 2005, and 2006, Fish Tycoon was later ported to cell phone, retail, and Nintendo DS.

[edit] Game Storyline

Players take on the role of a fish store owner who must breed and care for hundreds of different kinds of exotic fish, all the while attempting to keep the fish store economically viable long enough to achieve the ultimate objective: breeding The Seven Magic Fish of Isola.

[edit] Cheats

Although there are no built in game cheats, a popular 'hack' would be the "Time Change Cheat": Change the computer's internal clock, and the fish will also change according to that timing. Thus, if you can't wait for your fish to grow, changing the time will cause them to become full adults. Then, you can change the time back to normal without reversed effects. Another rumoured cheat code is the Speckled Honsa-fin Eel. It is said that if you buy and then breed extremely rare eggs, then before they hatch quickly go into 'Supplies' and purchase the seahorse (you must not already own it to purchase it). After going back to the main tank, you will not see the seahorse or the fish. Instead, the babies will be born in one long chain following each other, and then you know it has worked. They also must be raised by hand, which means no hormones and such. Upon reaching the adult stage (3-5 Days) you will see the Speckled Honsa-fin Eel. It will also eat any other fish in the same tank. NOTE: This is rumoured only.
