YMMV / Mystic Ark

• Awesome Music: Nearly every battle theme, and a few others as well.
  • "Hey! Don't Attack Me!"
  • "Match Time," the scenario end-boss theme.
• Game-Breaker: The Kidsdom Mansion Book of Happiness which can provide you limitless amounts of MP Seeds provided you are willing to shell out 1020 Gold a seed and can only carry one at a time.
• Nightmare Fuel: Those cute cuddly little foxes become terrifying stilt-legged demons on the battle screen.
  • The appropriately named Child's World - there is exactly one adult to be found anywhere (not counting the Hero, of course). None of the children seem to find this the least bit odd or unusual, and nobody mentions what happened to the other adults.
  • The World of Darkness is perhaps the most unsettling part of the entire game, you can't infuse the arks into the figurines, nor can you escape as there is no object that you can interact with to leave. The music doesn't help matters and that you have to fight random enemies. Combine that with random logs scattered about of how Darkness came into existence. and you have perhaps one of the most jarring dungeons ever developed by Enix for the SNES Era.
• Viewer Gender Confusion: Yes, that's Remeer there on the game's cover—not Ferris. The only real way of differentiating between the two is that Ferris has a dress that poofs out and wears her hair in a braided ponytail, while Remeer has a very long shirt and lets his long bishie locks flow freely.
