YMMV / Aqua Cube

Go To

  • Awesome Music: The game's dreamlike soundtrack wouldn't sound too outta place from that of a Sega Saturn or Sega Dreamcast game. The theme for La Kurushane is a particular stand-out.
  • Good Bad Translation: While the game's English version is fully playable, it suffers from a lot of grammar mistakes. This is due to Fox translating a lot of the game's Japanese script directly into English, despite not being too fluent in the language to do a more accurate translation.
  • Incest Yay Shipping: By the tons. Yuu and Aya's affection towards one another borders on being a romantic love rather than just a familial love, and this bond is what set the events of the game into motion where Aquris keeps separating the two siblings from each other. Yuu, in particular, seems to just outright have a genuine crush on his older sister, and may sometimes even get aroused being around her. Also, the Kobinata siblings' main method of supplying air to each other is to perform an Underwater Kiss. Depending on the difficulty of the level, a player may end up having to do this multiple times, and another layer of pressure of making them use this maneuver gets added in if the trapped sibling is locked in a cage, which prevents the two from exchanging oxygen.
  • Moe: Both younger brother Yuu and older sister Aya are very adorable and innocent siblings, especially with Fox's Puni Plush art style for them in this game. They just want to stay together and look out for each other against all of the dangers Aquris puts them through.
  • Quirky Work: Arguably one of the more bizarre titles of Fox Eye's catalog. These two ordinary human siblings must deal with a small inter-dimensional elf-like being that's constantly out to torment them on different aquarium-like cubes that pass as planets. All because he doesn't like their huge (and admittingly rather incestous) love and affection for each other.
