Introduction

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to traverse the treacherous, watery world of fish n’ chips – you know, that aquatic labyrinth of dangerous seagulls, unforgiving roadways, and, oh yes, an entire cast of flopping, desperate fish? No? Well, too bad! Because in 'I Am Fish', that’s exactly the position you find yourself in as you navigate your way to the open ocean – all while barely avoiding the horrifyingly large trash can of life.

Gameplay

I Am Fish puts you in the finned fins of a ragtag group of fish determined to escape their dingy bowl and return to the vast blue of the ocean. Your mission? Swim, roll, and wobble through a beautifully crafted world while solving physics-based puzzles to get your aquatic heroes to freedom. Yes, the same developers of 'I Am Bread' are behind this, which means you can expect that signature slippery physics engine that makes you wonder if fish should really have dreams of escape in the first place. Want to know how it feels to flounder through a park or precariously balance on a skateboard? Dive in, and you’ll find out just how slippery and slimy that can be. From the thrill of dodging evil birds to the inevitable doom of tumbling down an entire flight of stairs (just a fish in the ocean... or so they thought), its challenges are delightfully inventive and comically chaotic.

Graphics

Visually, 'I Am Fish' is as charming as it is starkly colorful. The environments are bright and cartoony, giving you a sense of whimsy and danger at the same time. The vibrant world makes even the murkiest back alley pond feel like a place you’d want to explore– except for that strange smell. The water animations are fluid and give a real sense of that sweet aquatic life, and while it may not be AAA graphics, it has its bizarre charm that stays true to the peculiar nature of the game.

Conclusion

In a world overflowing with first-person shooters and relentlessly serious RPGs, 'I Am Fish' is a refreshing dip back into the realm of creativity and laughs. It’s a fish out of water only in the best sense and offers a satisfying gaming experience that is simply fun. Sure, it wouldn’t hurt to be more than just a flopping fish on wheels, but who says they can’t have explosions too? The game is an aquatic adventure worth taking a splash into for puzzle lovers, fish fanatics, and anyone who enjoys a good romp with laughter.
