Find a peaceful oasis for your weary eyes amidst a busy day of work or study.
Nano Reef is a cozy, casual game that transforms every click and keystroke into a beautiful marine ecosystem. Requiring no intense focus, it sits quietly in the corner of your screen, growing silently while you are busy and keeping you company when you need a break. And now, this tiny ocean is no longer yours alone.
Whether you are coding, writing reports, typing, or clicking around, every action quietly earns you gold. The game runs gently at the edge of your desktop and never gets in the way of your work. Look up, and your little reef has already saved up a small fortune.
Friend Rooms : Create a room and invite friends through Steam. Up to 8 people can gather around one aquarium, each bringing a fish of their own.
Fish Trading : Swap fish, corals, and your handmade fish and decorations with friends, and bring your favorite tank mates home.
Paint with the built-in canvas or upload your own images to create one-of-a-kind fish and decorations for your tank. Make it your cat, your boss, or a glorious masterpiece of terrible art.
Lively Marine Fish : From clownfish and tangs to all kinds of colorful ocean swimmers, there is plenty to collect.
Fish Collection : See which species you have kept and which ones are still missing.
Limited Gifts : Mystery gifts build up while the game runs, with a chance of gift-exclusive fish you can't buy in the shop.
Vibrant Corals : Bioluminescent corals and anemones sway gently in the current, and clownfish will even make the anemones their home.
Fun Aquascaping : Arrange live rocks, sea shells, and quirky ornaments to design a tank like no other.
Buy fish food with your gold and watch your fish rush in for a joyful feast. You can even pick a fish up with your mouse, because every workday needs a little fishing around.
True Peace of Mind : No tedious survival mechanics and no water changes, just simple feeding. Even if you forget to open the game for days, your reef will still be waiting for you.
Put the ocean on your screen and keep it by your desk. Invite your friends, keep working, and start your cozy desktop journey together.
