Comment of the game producer
Thank you so much for selecting “FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time” for the Japan Game Awards for Excellence.
To tell the truth, we won the same award for the previous game “FANTASY LIFE” 12 years ago.
We are pleased and felt honored, feeling people who were waiting are somewhat more satisfied.
At that time, we mainly sold the game in Japan. This time, we released the game globally. As a result, many more players enjoy the new game than the previous one. Especially, this game spread very quickly by word of mouth. We strongly feel this leads to the current award. We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who picked up this game.
We will keep on updating so that you can enjoy longer by adding the new mode “Roguelike Open World” through free DLCs. Please keep on cheering on us.
Akihiro Hino,
