The Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream (東方夢時空, pronounced Touhou Mujikuu, meaning Dreamland) is the third game in the Touhou series, released for the Japanese PC-98 in 1997. It is a unique game wherein two players indirectly combat one another by charging and releasing spell cards. This style of gameplay has been re-implemented in the ninth Touhou series game, The Phantasmagoria of Flower View.
Gameplay
- Main article: Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream: Gameplay (includes a more detailed description of the game and information on scoring)
The Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream is considered to be a competitive vertical danmaku shooting game, in which two characters engage in moderate danmaku gameplay within individual and separate play areas (aka. split-screen). Upon meeting certain conditions, players are able to unleash a variety of character-specific Spell Attacks upon their opponents in an attempt to whittle down their remaining health points, in a manner not unlike a VS. puzzle game such as Puyo Puyo.
In Story Mode, the player will face 9 increasingly intelligent AI opponents, each more capable than the last. The Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream also features a Match Play Mode in which the player may face off against individual AI opponents or compete against other human players, as well as observe AI vs. AI matches.
