          Aquapazza: Aquaplus Dream Match (アクアパッツァ アクアプラスドリームマッチ?) is a 2011 2D arcade fighting game developed by Examu.[1] It is a joint collaboration between Aquaplus and Leaf, who developed all the titles and featured characters. The "Dream Match" in the title references the characters of the game coming together from various Aquaplus titles, including Utawarerumono, Tears to Tiara, and To Heart.

          The game was released in Japan on June 22, 2011, with a PlayStation 3 version later released on August 30, 2012.[2] Two updated versions called Aquapazza Version 1.5A and Aquapazza Version 2.0 added several new characters.[3] Aquapazza and Version 2.0 were among the featured titles at the 2011 and 2012 Tougeki tournament.[4]

          Hardcore Gamer 4/5 stars [9]

          Bradly Hale of Hardcore Gamer gave the game a 4/5, saying that "It may lack high-class refinement in certain areas, and the cast of fighters probably won’t be recognizable to those outside of the Japanese gaming scene, but those issues are incredibly minor when put up against the bigger picture — which in this case is a sound, robust fighting game." [9] Mandi Odoerfer of GameZone praised the game's Active Emotion System, saying that it "eliminates some of the fighting genre's biggest annoyances".[8]
