Gamertell Review: Aquaria for Mac

Title: AquariaPrice: $30System(s): Mac OS XRelease Date: November 13, 2008Publisher (Developer): Ambrosia Software, Bit BlotPros: Utterly gorgeous, intuitive gameplay, an engrossing world, smart design.Cons: Gamers with itchy trigger fingers need not applyOverall Score: Two thumbs up, 98/100, A, ***** out of five.

It’s a funny thing about being a Mac-owning gamer – it’s so rare that anything genuinely interesting comes to the platform that it’s almost a shock when a title with as much polish and ingenuity as Aquaria shows up.
