El-Fish

aka: Elfish, SimFish
Moby ID: 314

DOS version

Interesting. Beautiful. Magical.

The Good
The graphics and animations are outstanding. Most games limits customizing to awkward mix&match body parts, but not El-Fish. Smooth movement and phong-based rendering makes these fish outstanding, even by todays standards.

The Bad
Some trouble getting it to run, but not more than I can handle.

Waiting for fish to render isn't as bad as it used to be, five to ten minutes on a P300.

The Bottom Line
All gamers have one special game they love. This is mine. Most will not get its inner beauty, but I did. And it charmed me off my feet.
