Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon

Full blog is on the links but here's a little excerpt:

Beautifully-stunning and bone-chilling are two words rarely seen in the sentence, let alone confide themselves to the same thing, but this game manages to pull it off exquisitely. Imagine Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Parasite Eve taken apart to the smallest unbreakable part and reconstructed together piece by piece by Hayao Miyazaki himself. Fragile Dreams is as close as it gets, taking in RE's item management, SH's strangeness and eerie atmosphere, PE's RPG-elements, and Miyazaki's heartfelt imagination.

Has anyone picked this up yet?

Nope. But this game really does look awesome.

I have kept an eye on it for some time. The entire game looks right up my alley. There are few games these days that I really take notice to but this one just really intrigues me. I don't have a Wii and really don't want yet another console, but I really REALLY want to play this.

Definitely picking this up. Can't wait to immerse myself in this world.

Wow! I searched for a thread relating to this game and was surprised to find that I posted here almost 6 years ago! .

So I got a Wii U on Black Friday (LOVING it!), but never had a Wii so I am currently focusing on the Wii games that interest me. I got Fragile Dreams off Ebay and I am a couple of hours into. I have to say it is EXACTLY what I was hoping for. The game is absolutely gorgeous and the subtle use of music and sfx are fantastic. The game really makes good use of all the Wiis features, especially the speaker on the wiimote.

I don't think the game is for everyone though. The pacing is slower and more methodical and plays out much like a 3d evolution of a point and click adventure game. For me everything really comes together in Fragile Dreams. I love the game mechanics and design, the mysterious story, effective use of sound, and the anime look. The game just pours atmosphere:



Anybody else a fan of this game?
