Upon removing it he meets, and quickly befriends a magical little ring spirit named Huepow. Living here is a cat/human boy hybrid named Klonoa who one day finds a golden ring sticking out of the ground. Klonoa takes place in a fantasy world called Phantomile which is based off of people’s dreams. Klonoa: Door to Phantomile might just be the best platformer across the entire console easily surpassing the likes of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon. One such game, Klonoa, attempts to blend the second and third dimensional mechanics and does so better than any other similar title I’ve played. It’s unfortunate because for the most part these games hold up significantly better than the flashier releases of this era. We had excellent games such as Tomba, Astal, Mischief Makers and the like, but the problem is that most of them were completely overshadowed by the flashier three dimensional titles released in the same time period. The 2D platformer was, by all indications, a thing of the past with only a few devoted game companies still pushing the format. Most developers eagerly pushed their new games and old franchises alike into the 3D realm immediately following the launch of the 32/64-bit consoles. ![]()
