FathomVerse App Reviews

I was super excited to play but found the experience unintuitive and frustrating. After playing a couple rounds I got stuck in a feedback loop and was unable to pick a new species to train on. It didn’t save my previous game either. I’m only leaving this feedback because I know it’ll help you improve what’s sure to be an awesome game and valuable science tool eventually!

v fun, but there are a few bugs. just minor stuff, music will sometimes trigger and layer over the usual background track, and its very loud. also, some text ran off screen in the intro.

A simple, unhurried activity that turns your game time into something useful. The interface is simple but well-designed. I love seeing photos from both recreational and research dives.

I love this app! Yes, there are a few UI steps that can be frustrating at first (although the most recent update has improved much of the onboarding experience for me), but the dev team is super responsive on Discord if you have any questions. The graphics are rich, the experience is immersive, and it’s a really great concept. Highly recommend.

FathomVerse is awesome, however, I do have one change to suggest. Customization: It would be nice if you could change your avatar. Maybe you could change it to a picture you had favorited? Again, awesome game.

I really love this app! It's really fun to look at all the images of sea creatures and expand upon my ability to identify all of them thanks to the educational training the app gives you. You get to help science and have fun. And some of the images are really cute and funny!

It’s very nice and relaxing and also a fun way to learn all your sea-crit basics! If you’re like me and you forget things quickly it’s easy to check back at the basic information for the animal groups. It also feels nice to be able to contribute to science some even as someone fairly uneducated and inept in marine biology. I may not be able to totally ID something or catch close mistakes but you can still help it along quite a bit, and eliminate pictures from an ID too if you feel solidly confid

super relaxing and I love discovering little ocean animals

Cool concept and a great way to contribute to science.

Love this chill game where I can help scientists!

I love playing this game. Seeing photos of real deep sea animals, getting pointers on recognizing animal groups, and knowing that in expedition mode I am actually being a citizen scientist while having fun! Great combo! Highly recommend for anyone who loves the ocean!

FathomVerse is really relaxing and fun! I love drifting along the ocean currents, listening to the (customizable) deep ocean sounds, and collecting cool pictures of deep sea creatures. Plus, I love knowing that just by playing, I am contributing to ocean research by training the AI to recognize these animals! FathomVerse absolutely deserves its five stars!

It’s such a peaceful and pretty game, but you also get to learn more about undersea life and help with investigating the ocean! The creators are also very responsive and helpful.

Engaging, mesmerizing, and soothing. Great way to relax while helping the scientific community.

Interesting idea but incredibly boring and buggy

A beginning attempt but certainly not playable by a long shot but I wish you all the best if you are still planning to make an app that works. The California Academy of Science makes an outstanding app called Seek for plant and insect ID's which also (I believe)has a partnership with another app called iNaturalist. Neither one of these is a game, but I use Seek daily.
