Clockwork Aquario is a traditional 2D platformer that is the unfinished project of the now bankrupt Westone studio. The game was polished by ININ Games and published by Strictly Limited Games.
Clockwork Aquario is a classic 2D platformer in which we play as three distinct characters. Development of this game started back in 1993 in Westone studio, but it wasn't finished then. After years the task of polishing the work was taken over by ININ Games. The publisher is Strictly Limited Games.
Clockwork Aquario is a classic 2D side-scroller. The game is about completing levels - it requires jumping over fragments of the terrain and eliminating enemies that appear. The game uses the classic "live" system (we can approach a given level several times, losing one attempt at each defeat).
It is worth noting that during the game we can control one of three characters - each of them has different skills, as well as strengths and weaknesses.
In Clockwork Aquario we can only play solo. The core of the gameplay is the single player mode.
Clockwork Aquario has quite a pleasant 2D graphics. It has been designed in an old-school, pixel-art style - the developers have used many graphics and materials created by the Westone team. It is worth noting that the image is displayed in 4:3 format.

COGconnected: 64 / 100 by Jaz Sagoo
Clockwork Aquario is a product of its time. The short game length and high difficulty are similar to its 90s counterparts. Unfortunately, due to this, there aren’t many reasons to revisit the game after playing through the meager number of stages. The score-based gameplay is a fresh twist and makes for an addictive platforming experience. Gaining multipliers and working out routes is fun whether playing on your own or with a partner. Even with its beautiful, chunky pixel art and vivid backgrounds, the game’s shortage of content and high price, make this a forgettable re-emergence rather than a celebrated return.
God is a Geek: 10 / 10 by Sean Smith
Clockwork Aquario is a restorative labour of love 27 years in the making. What’s not to like?
Hardcore Gamer: 4 / 5 by Jeremy Peeples
Clockwork Aquario is a fantastic action-platformer that blends quick-moving playable characters and enemies alongside an inventive attack strategy.
