Animation and Cinematics – Refined but seemingly lifeless As I will at times compare both of them side by side as a whole package. FYI in this review, I will be referring Klonoa: Door To Phantomile as Klonoa one and Klonoa 2: Lunatea’s Veil as Klonoa two.

As I found out playing now, Klonoa turns out to be a platforming puzzle disguised in linear skin which is way ahead of its time. Thanks to Bandai Namco Entertainment for the review copy, I am able to relive the past of when I gave up and tell my younger self to retry again – reliving the time when I let go, and me guiding a game with my past.
