Hand-crafted Dioramas - A Unique Experience

One of the standout features of Fantasian Neo Dimension is its stunning visual artistry. Developed primarily with physical dioramas, Sakaguchi said, “It was more challenging than I had thought... The warmth of something made by humans really comes through.” 🎨

Despite the dominance of CG in modern gaming, he opted for handcrafted visuals to strengthen the emotional connection with players. When you explore this multi-dimensional realm, you won’t just play a game; you will journey through a work of art.

Innovative Gameplay Mechanics

Sakaguchi has also innovated traditional RPG mechanics to keep things fresh.
