3''Megaquarium'' is a business tycoon simulation game developed and published by Twice Circled and released on UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} on September 18, 2018. In the game the player takes on the role of a business tycoon and is tasked with building aquarium parks. As a part of building and maintaining the parks, the player must keep their fish healthy, keep staff of the aquarium well paid and make sure they enjoy their job, and also make sure their guests enjoy their time at the aquarium.

6!! This game provides examples of:
7* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: Some of the fish featured in the game can get very colorful, just as they are in real life.
8* AnEntrepreneurIsYou: You are building aquarium parks and must then manage the parks including keeping fish healthy, keeping employees satisfied, and making sure park guests are entertained.
9* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Fully Averted. Salt water fish need salt water aquariums and freshwater fish can only be in freshwater aquariums. It's also not a good idea to put two predatory species together.
10* ChainOfDeals: Sometimes possible in Sandbox mode, as you may get random trade offers for animals that match up.
11* GoofySuit: In the ''Architect's Collection'' DLC, you can inflict this on your staff by making them wear an "octopus costume". This gains prestige whenever a guest sees them, so it's best for "front-stage" staff like those who clean or talk on podiums.
12* HardModePerks: A mild (and possibly unintentional) example: though harder difficulties are generally, well, harder, the increased prices for animals also include the animals you ''sell'', thus making breeding slightly more profitable, if you choose to supplement your income that way.
