My kids enjoyed watching me play and expressed interest in playing the game after I’m done with it. While Aquadine isn’t the best visual novel I’ve played, it’s certainly not the worst one either. Though none of the characters are gay there are some misunderstandings and in those scenarios the people who made the assumptions were supportive no matter what. I won’t say which character cross dresses, but one of them does dress like the opposite sex. Some sexual jokes are made, but nothing more than kissing is shown. Foul language is present with words like *ss, b*stard, and d*mn. There are also some references to undead spirits. Some moral issues worth noting include merfolk lore and some characters in this game claim to be deities. Other than these oddities, the visuals are colorful and nice. When a character is startled or stressed out, their avatar will shake obnoxiously. I can’t imagine bouncing before speaking in real life. Before a character speaks their avatar will bounce. Robin’s grandpa has an annoying phrase (“Grandpa will speak!”) that’s overused.Īnother nitpick are the character animations. Each character has a few generic phrases that are used throughout the game. After a meal, she often belches loudly and that is one of the handful of voice acted sound effects/phrases for her. The other routes go into spoiler territory, so I won’t discuss them here.Įlisabeth has a metabolism that most people would be jealous of and she can eat enough food for three people in one sitting. Unfortunately, with her current grades, her strict mom doesn’t have high expectations for her and isn’t very supportive. I personally don’t understand why Robin created an alter ego to address criticism, but that’s just my opinion.ĭiane’s route doesn’t have any secrets, but instead she searches for her calling as she wants to do more with her life than take over the family business. Most of the characters have a secret, though some are more interesting than others. Moral Warnings: Language (*ss, b*stard, d*mn) deception potty humor one character dresses as the opposite sex non-Christian religions/lore some sexual references sports violence alcohol consumption and drunkennessĮach of these characters has their own route to complete and you’ll learn more about their backstories as you play through them. Weak Points: Distracting animation effects partial (and repetitive) voice acting Strong Points: Multiple character routes and endings to see His circle of friends include:Īnya – A girl who doesn’t mince words and likes to drawĬameron – Robin’s best friend who is the captain of the karate teamĭiane – An outgoing girl whose family runs a highly-regarded caféĮlisabeth – A transfer student who is a popular singer though she hasn’t performed in a while Robin is a high school student who wears glasses and has the reputation of being a bookworm. Most of the villagers don’t realize that Robin and Ciel are the same person! Instead of dealing with the backlash, Robin created an alter ego named Ciel and his tours are highly regarded. The townsfolk disliked him even more for giving up. Robin has tried to follow in her footsteps, but received harsh reviews and stepped down from that role. Robin’s mom was a popular gondolier and their tour business was flourishing until she fell ill and has been in the hospital for several years. Not all of the residents there believe that mermaids exist though the main character, Robin, and his family do.
