⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community support: 6,336 endorsements and 394,986 downloads show it's a must-have for many players.
- Adds a whole new area to explore, not just a single building—great for players who love discovering new spots.
- The aquarium tanks are animated, bringing your fish collection to life in a way the base game doesn't.
👎 Cons
- No detailed feature list beyond the basics—you'll have to discover the rewards and shops yourself.
- The mod is purely additive; if you're looking for gameplay overhauls or new mechanics, this isn't it.
- Last updated in February 2025—while recent, it may not be compatible with future game updates without a patch.
