Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series

Delightful remake of the first two Klonoa games, Klonoa: Door to Phantomile (from the PlayStation 1 era) and its sequel Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil - which is still one of the PlayStation 2's most highly rated games with a Metacritic score of 94 at launch. I fondly remember playing both at the time so I was delighted that Namco's furry mascot was getting a new lease on life on all modern platforms for his 25th anniversary.

What surprised me the most about both games was how well they both hold up considering they came out between 1997 and 2001. Platformers have seen a creative renaissance over the intervening years thanks to the budding indie scene, so it was surprising to see both hold up so well against the more modern games in the genre.

To say both games in the collection have aged beautifully is an understatement and this is only amplified by the loving restoration done by Monkeycraft on these lost platforming relics so that hopefully an entire new generation can discover them. If sales are buoyant enough, hopefully then there is the possibility we see a third mainline entry into the series. Simple yet delightful to play, Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series is gorgeous visually, oozes charm, has clever level design that often allows the player to approach it from various angles, and is a winner for fans of the genre. Recommended.
