is a Japanese contemporary fantasy role-playing game designed by Takeshi Kikuchi and FarEast Amusement Research (F.E.A.R.) released in 2002. In the modern-day earth campaign setting, player characters called ''Wizards'' (ウィザード) fight against the world enemy named ''Emulators'' (エミュレーター) and their lords ''Maō'' (魔王) and explore the dungeons built by ''Emulators''. The game's campaign session (played by F.E.A.R.'s staff and voice actors) logs named ''replays'' were published in non-RPG magazines such as ''E-LOGIN'' and ''Magi-Cu'', therefore, ''Night Wizard!'' fans are not limited to only RPG gamers. An anime television series adaptation animated by Hal Film Maker began airing in Japan in October 2007 and ended its run on December 25, 2007. ''Night Wizard!'' actively diversifies into other media contents including replays, drama CD, manga, computer games and light novels and so on. ==Gameplay== The game takes place in an alternate Earth in which the existence of magic is concealed. This Earth is called ''Far-The-Earth'' (ファー・ジ・アース) by beings from other worlds, unlike humans from Far-The-Earth who simply call it "Earth". This world is very similar to the Earth we live on, except for a few differences. The system of ''Night Wizard!'' 2nd edition is fully compatible with the fantasy RPG Seven Fortress Mobius (its 4th edition). The campaign settings of two games are able to be connected, both of ''Far-the-Earth'' and ''Lars Felia'', the world of Seven Fortress are ones of the worlds in the same multiverse named ''Shuhakkai'' (主八界, which means "main worlds of eight"). Other six worlds in Shuhakkai: ''El Neysia'', ''El Flare'', ''Elsgoala'', ''Elclam'', ''Elqulia'' and ''Rustyarne'' are also playable by using Seven Fortress's sourcebooks and these campaign settings are also compatible with ''Night Wizard!''. (The sourcebooks of Seven Fortress's campaign settings ) Unlike most Japanese urban action RPGs, the game focuses on dungeon play. This is because the RPG which the game is based on, ''Seven Fortress'', was also heavily focused on dungeons, but the game is designed so that dungeons can be readied even in a modern-day setting, which is considered the strongpoint of the game to this date. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Night Wizard!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
