Klonoa: Door to Phantomile contains the following tropes: The port is largely identical to the Wii remake, but it reverts some of the changes to be more in line with the original game - including using Klonoa and other characters' older designs, sticking much closer to the original script, and reusing the PS1 version's voices verbatim. Specifically, it comprised one half of the Compilation Rerelease Klonoa: Phantasy Reverie Series, alongside its sequel. Twenty-five years after the original game's release, it would go on to receive a HD remaster on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Steam in 2022. In spite of positive reviews, this version of the game sold poorly enough to seemingly leave the series for dead for over a decade. It updated the visuals to be fully 3D, revised the script (with new dubs spoken in various languages, alongside the Phantomilian featured in the original), introduced a new design for Klonoa, and added a few quality of life improvements. In 2008, the game would receive a remake on the Nintendo Wii. While the 1999 WonderSwan title Moonlight Museum was the first follow-up to Door to Phantomile, the proper sequel - Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil - would be released in 2001 for the PlayStation 2.
The game is noteworthy for being one of the earliest 2❝ platformers, incorporating a unique mix of 2D sprites juxtaposed against sprawling, detailed 3D stages and backgrounds that twist and turn as you progress through them. Thus begins the duo's quest to save Lephise, stop Ghadius (and his minion Joka), and prevent Phantomile from falling to ruin. Grandpa directs them to ask Granny, the chief of the heavily forested Forlock, about the penchant. Klonoa and Huepow, alarmed by all this, go back home to Klonoa's grandfather to ask him about the situation. He also intends to kidnap Lephise, a diva that is said to come from the legendary Moon Kingdom, to prevent her from singing the Song of Rebirth that would thwart his agenda. When the two investigate, they find a mysterious, sinister man named Gladius & learn of his plans: to use a mysterious Moon Pendant in order to revive the legendary Moon Kingdom and spread nightmares across Phantomile.
Some time later, after having a nightmare involving a ship crashing into a nearby hill, Klonoa and Huepow awake when exactly that happens. He comes across a mysterious ring while playing in the forest one day - upon grabbing it, he ends up meeting Huepow, an orb-like spirit who can go inside the ring's gem. The game stars the titular Klonoa, a rabbit/cat-like Cartoon Creature who lives in the dream land of Phantomile. It was originally released exclusively on the PlayStation in 1997 in Japan, with an international release following in 1998. Klonoa: Door to Phantomile is the first entry in the Klonoa series.
