ファンタジーゾーン
Cute 'em ups feature brightly colored graphics depicting surreal settings and enemies. Cute 'em ups tend to have unusual, oftentimes completely bizarre opponents for the player to fight, with "Twinbee" and "Fantasy Zone" first pioneering the subgenre, along with "Parodius", "Cotton", and "Harmful Park" being additional key games. Some cute 'em ups may employ overtly sexual characters and innuendo.
