We love it when Fish Tycoon-ers come home to LDW, but we are dying to know where you found the game!
Feel free to post to this thread if you found it somewhere that we did not list.

I saw your request for Mac Beta testers on a news site and so I got to this place. I don't regret I took a look here

I have a MSN Passport, and I play games often on MSN. I saw an advertisement for Fish Tycoon, and decided to try it out.  Oh, by the way, Yahoo and Shockwave later added the game to their lists... but it was MSN where I first found it.

I found it on Amazon.com when I was looking to see what Tycoon games had come out lately. Then I went and found the website. *grin*

Probably one of our distributors got some deal together and has some trial versions bundled with new PCs. When you ran the game, who was 'selling' that version of Fish Tycoon? Was it trying to send purchases to Big Fish Games, for example, or some other distributor?

I saw mine on MSN - the Australian nineMSN website, to be precise. They were featuring it on the front page of their website. I'm not a big games person, and I get sick of them easily.
I like Fish Tycoon, because I don't get "stuck" at a level that I can't get past.

I've been playing it on the Shockwave web site, the problem is I keep getting an unspecified error which shuts down internet explorer. this has happened to me on my old computer too so I think its something to do with Shockwave, it's driving me mad!

Looks like someone's profiting off of your product! Better investigate.

(other) in the Apple site. really enjoying the game. there are reviews in some sites that are outdated by the way. cons refering to typos and other issues that seem to have been patched.

I found it when i was trawling though Palm.com's list of games and i came across LPP. I downloaded the trial but realised i was missing out of some things, so i followed it back to where else but LDW's home page.
At that point i virtually hit gold when i came across FT and PT, and later VS.

I got bored of my old true time game. I used to play OGAME a lot (online strategy game) but I really hated it the game being so timeconsuming. I did a google search for tycoon games and ended up at some gamespage and downloaded the game. I never thought fish were so intersting.

Mine is branded by Big Fish games, but it wasn't their site that I downloaded it from; I've forgotten exactly where.

I found it on Google. I was bored one night and looking for a good fish simulation to keep me entertained since I can't have a fish tank till I move.

I found Fish Tycoon on Reflexive. That is where I get most of my games. I just typed Tycoon in the search box.

Hi I bought FT and PT for Palm OS at Astraware. After some problems with my Palm, Astraware directed me to you folks at LDW, where I discovered FT for Windows on the LDW site. So I really should have selected both LDW and Other (for Astraware). I'm really looking forward to PT for Windows!

I was bored, and it was listed as a favorite at the time so I downloaded the trial version, liked it, and then paid for the full version.
I have Fish Tycoon, VV1 and VV2. Looking forward to VV3.
