Amusing Dream (夢幻冒険記 アミュージングドリーム Mugen Bouken-ki Amusing Dream, meaning Dream Adventure Chronicles: Amusing Dream)[1] is a cancelled 1992 RPG game for the Super Famicom that was in development by Takara.
The game's character design was done by mangaka Kouga Yun; the script was written by Ikeda Misa and music composed by Kuzuu Chinatsu.
Plot
An unknown landscape shrouded in a thin mist. On a small hill, far away, stands a tower-like figure. Though it is the first time the protagonist sees this place, it makes him feel a strange nostalgia.
A girl appears and whispers to him "Follow me, I am the guide of this world. I think I can help you.".
From those few words, his adventure begins.
