You care for a small pond by choosing which creatures to introduce and observing how they interact. The aim is to shape an ecosystem that can sustain itself.
Spawn aquatic life, regulate the water's oxygen level, and manage contamination. You can experiment with different combinations of species and pond conditions.
The sandbox leaves you free to set your own goals and watch the pond change over time, including creatures moving through their life cycle.
Some reviewers enjoy the simple, low-pressure pond interaction, especially spawning creatures and watching them, and describe the experience as calming or pleasant for a short break. Others find it too limited or brief to hold their interest.
