I LOVE Arthur so much I LOVE HIMM, but one problem I did notice is that gems are so hard to get😭 like you only get 1 per episode (5 if you watch an add), you can watch an add every 10-17minutes to get 5 gems, and I think you can get from walking. Other than that you either have to wait for one of the characters birthdays or spend money, which is a pain for a free to play player😭😭 that was my experience so far as a new player, and other than that I really like this game and hope to see more games like this in the future! Plus I love the art style.❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Underrated and I love Arthur *2025-07-11* Im ashamed but I spent like $30 on this game to rizz up Arthur but it was worth it cuz I married him- Wish this game was more popular so there’d be fanart of him but he looks similar to Kazuha from Genshin so that’s good enough, I guess.. Other than that, game was cute. Loved the art, plot was kinda boring ### 4/5 — Nice game, but make you pay too much *2025-07-09* As far as I can tell, its a really nice game and its really cute. On problem is that you hav to buy gems for most things and theres an ad after everything. ### 5/5 — Шикарно *2025-06-26, version 1.2.1* Много рекламы, но это классика жанра, спасибо за влв🌹🌹 ### 5/5 — ❤️ *2025-06-24, version 1.2.1* 재밌게 하고있어요❤️❤️ ### 1/5 — Poo *2025-06-19* This game has INSANELY cute art but of course it has to be one of the most boring things I’ve ever laid my eyes upon. Maybe it gets better later in the story but I could hardly sit through the first episode without getting insanely bored and confused. Like you’re first making out with some merman and then next second your apparently just back in your hometown and then you’re getting thrown in the water by a random stranger??? Very hard to follow and not to mention how little there is to do?? I’m not sure if this is just because I didn’t explore the game that much or whatever but from a first glance you can only walk, read, and change your outfit. It just entirely seems boring and like a waste of your time. If you want a good romance game then.. heh… maybe check out obey me…! Heh… just a suggestion though.. yk.. pretty peak… maybe even watch a bit of Yuri on ice… idk tho.. ## Frequently asked questions about Aqua Romance ### What is Aqua Romance: Mermaid Otome?
