“That really renewed my interest and love in this classic JRPG genre, and gave me an opportunity to return to my roots,” Sakaguchi said through a translator.
He and some of his colleagues who worked on that game replayed it on Nintendo’s Super NES Classic a few years ago. Sakaguchi said Fantasian was partially inspired by his own work on Final Fantasy 6. Players can then jump into a Dimengeon when they want and enjoy the satisfaction of wiping them all out at once. Mistwalker calls it the Dimengeon system - a mashup of dimension and dungeon - and it sends the monsters that players encounter to an alternate dimension. Unlike the classic Final Fantasy games that Sakaguchi created, where a fight with a group of enemies could arrive unexpectedly, Fantasian lets players deal with random encounters. The miniatures-based environments give the game a unique sense of charm and warmth, Sakaguchi said in an interview with Polygon, and helped inform Fantasian’s game mechanics.įantasian features a system that twists how players deal with random monster encounters. The game’s 3D characters are overlaid on top of them. Mistwalker’s RPG was built using more than 150 handcrafted physical dioramas. Fantasian has it all: turn-based battles, an amnesiac hero, a cast of pretty protagonists on interweaving adventures, and, of course, an airship.īut Fantasian stands out for one design decision that has garnered attention. Fantasian, the new adventure from Hironobu Sakaguchi’s studio Mistwalker, is a classic Japanese role-playing game at heart.
