If you’re having a bad day, this game can put a smile on your face through the exuberance it emits. With each new level I entered, I had to ask myself ‘how is it so pretty?’ Honestly, it fills me with joy. This is a vivacious remake if ever I’ve seen one, and Klonoa certainly deserves it. The 2.5D is still as fantastic as ever, but in today’s graphics, it feels like an entirely different world, especially with how bright and vibrant it is. As soon as I performed that first jump, I was thrown back to my childhood, the kid in me squealed with joy as I continued on my merry way, and it’s fair to say that I was more than a little awestruck by my surroundings.

Of course, there’s no way we can let this happen, and thus a long journey full of remarkable platforming ensues.

You’re introduced to the game’s main antagonist, the evil ghadius, a ghastly being that would see Phantomile enshrouded with nightmares. Naturally, as any of us would (unless you fear the unknown), Klonoa and his lil pal Huepow, decide to make the climb up the mountain in order to find out what the situation is, and that’s when this story truly gets underway. That includes our protagonist, as the anthropomorphic animal is plagued by nightmares that see an airship crash into a mountain, and sure enough, this becomes a reality. In both games, you take on the role of the titular Klonoa, and in Klonoa: Door to Phantomile you go on a quest, in a world that’s fueled by the dreams that people have at night. And yes, it’s every bit as fun as its predecessor. In case you’re wondering, the latter of those titles is from 2001, and was initially a PlayStation 2 title.
