Cosmic Fantasy
Cosmic Fantasy (コズミック・ファンタジー, Kozumikku Fantajī) is a series of role-playing video games created by manga artist Kazuhiro Ochi, published by Telenet and developed by subsidiary LaserSoft from 1990 to 1994. It consists of four games (the last one being split in two installments) for the PC Engine CD console. The first two games were re-released as Cosmic Fantasy Stories, an upgraded compilation for the Sega CD developed by Riot. The series has themes of science fiction, adventure, raunchy comedy, and light erotica. It is notable as among the earlier RPGs to feature extended anime-style cutscenes and voice acting. Cosmic Fantasy 2 was the only game in the series to be released in English, localized and published by Working Designs.
