clockwork aquario is on Xbox

Publishers ININ Games are starting to make a name for themselves as the go-to force for reviving retro games lost to time. Ultracore is one 90’s title that they are bringing back today, and so too is Clockwork Aquario.

It’s some 30 years on from being thrown into development hell, unlikely to see the light of day. But now this action-packed, colourful side-scroller is making its way to the modern day. It releases on Xbox.

A World Record Holder!

Available now on Xbox, following prior releases on Switch and PlayStation, Clockwork Aquario holds the official Guinness World Record for ‘longest time between the start of a video game project and its release’. And does it show.

This is a retro title through and through, with players following Huck Rondo, Elle Moon and the robotic Gush as they stop the evil villain that is Dr. Hangyo.

Your main combat system involves picking up and throwing your enemies all over the place. All as you rack up a high score. Get a local co-op friend involved, and the scores will increase ever more!

Key Features

  • The arcade classic revived officially and complete for the first time!
  • Imaginative levels with beautiful pixel graphics!
  • Easy to pick up, addictive side-scroller action!
  • Gorgeous soundtrack by Westone legend Shinichi Sakamoto!
  • Includes a gallery with concept art and other goodies!

Play Today!

Clockwork Aquario is now available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Check it out today via the Xbox Store, for £7.99.

As always, we will endeavour to provide you a full review of Clockwork Aquario on Xbox, coming soon!

Game Description

After almost 30 years of development purgatory, Westone’s hidden arcade Gem is finally being brought to light! In this incredible collaboration between ININ, Strictly Limited Games and the original Westone developers, the unfinished ROM has been dug up and completed in its full glory. Not only does this Gem feature large character sprites, beautiful animations and vibrant colors, Clockwork Aquario holds the Guinness World Record for the longest time between the start of a video game project and its release! 

Play as Huck Rondo, Elle Moon or robot Gush through the stages of this mystical world to stop Dr. Hangyo from taking over! In this jump and run, pick up and throw your enemies, rack up multipliers to boost your high score and play with friends in a dedicated two-player local coop. Will you collaborate to take down Dr. Hangyo or try to sabotage each other to get the high score?

I'm an avid gamer who will play pretty much anything... but stick an open world or adventure game in front of me and I'm more than happy.
