This is how it works:

• When calling up the app, you will have a birds eye view of a pretty pond, apparently located far off from civilization. You see clear water, some water lillies and last but not lease, Koi fish roaming the scene.
• You can interact with the fish by touching the screen – you’ll see the fish scatter by your touch. Wait a bit and they’ll come back.
• You can alter the settings of this little Koi pond by tapping the bottom right corner.
• Here you can for instance change the water colors as well as the amount of fish (change) and greenery.
• Also, you can determine the sound and weather.
• The coolest thing is that you can hold your finger ever so lightly on the display – and the fish will come and nibble! Try that with your friends.
• You can also feed the fish by shaking the device.

What I like about Koi Pond:

• I love the graphics,
• the soothing atmoshpere is great,
• the finger-nibbling is my favourite part.

What I don’t like so much:

• The app has been around for quite a while and I’d expect some more creative options to be released soon.
