Just be careful to not click her...
Fancy Island, also known as Lomando.com, is a browser Point And Click exploration horror game disguised as a family-friendly game. You play as The Visitor, who enters the titular Fancy Island, a fantasy space where they must solve puzzles and fight monsters, and must reach the gallery to win.
As soon as the player get in though, the game takes a horrifying turn as the nightmarish monsters appear. To progress, they must click their way through the maze-like website, battling the sinister forces of the Pieyama God.
Can be played here
, if you dare.
On January 6, 2023, the website had a new option added: Deep Lomando; which features new characters and items.
Tropes present in Fancy Island:
- Amusement Park of Doom: According to an old newspaper page seen in the Fancy Island Archive, Fancy Island was once an amusement park that was abandoned when the caretaker disappeared, and then became haunted by the many spirits and monsters of the game.
- Big Bad: The Pieyama God is the leader of the monsters who rules over the titular island.
- Black Eyes of Evil: Some of the monsters have these, and a few bleed Tears of Blood from them.
- Creepy Cockroach: The page smpmysteryroom.html contains several cockroaches crawling over the tiles.
- Creepy Doll: Two types.
- The Cursed Dolls are big doll heads with brown hair and bleeding Black Eyes of Evil, and will laugh if the player clicks them.
- Ichimatsuko and Nihonningyou, reoccurring enemies that you must fight in a Whack-a-Monster game. Ichimatsuko serves as a boss.
- Dark Is Not Evil: Yukan no Shonen and Akai Sukato no Onnanoko are the only two apparitions who are not malevolent and still have human-like awareness.
- Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: The Pieyama God is behind all the monsters and is, as the name suggests, a powerful god. It is the Final Boss and perfectly killable by The Visitor.
- Disguised Horror Story: The home page of the site makes it look like a typical, cutesy anime game, with a Moe Cat Girl appearing as one of the three mascots of the theme park. But once you click on the image leading to the rest of the site, you are immediately greeted with what looks like the entrance door to a haunted house, and entering greets you with either Ookamuro or Cursed Dolls. And it all goes downhill from there, with Nightmare Face after Nightmare Face and plenty of Surreal Horror.
- Driven to Suicide:
- nikki.html has a diary written by the manager. The June 15, 2009 entry says "Thank you to everyone who is looking at this diary. Please be happy for me.", presumably just before committing the deed.
- One unused page depicts the manager of the theme park jumping off a building.
- Easter Egg:
- In the very first page, if you scroll through the mascot character bios, there is a chance you will trigger a Jump Scare with one of the bios showing the Gallery Master.
- If you go to the utsuru.html "livestream" at midnight, Nui Kuchi, a floating head, will appear and Jump Scare the player.
- Excuse Plot: The Visitor has gotten themself trapped in the titular Amusement Park of Doom, which is haunted by the Pieyama God and many hostile spirits. Get to the gallery to escape.
- Eye Scream:
- onomureiminem.html has you popping a bunch of eyeballs in the wall in order to unlock a hidden door.
- One of the characters has a knife sticking out of his eye.
- Foreshadowing: The third page of the "How to Play" intro comic shows Mimi doing a puzzle with a wooden box with numbers on the top, where she must put in the right combination. This is an actual puzzle in the game.
- The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You:
- Konkon-san, a Jump Scare character, will bang on your computer/smartphone screen.
- Yukie, another Jump Scare character, will crawl towards you (and in a previous version, "break" through your screen, leaving a hole inside it).
- Full-Frontal Assault: Yukie seems to be completely naked when she attacks you, with only her Godiva hair covering her nipples. Being a horror game, this is played for scares.
- Godiva Hair: Yukie has two strands of hair covering her nipples as she executes a Full-Frontal Assault on you.
- Jump Scare: Used liberally across the entire game. There's even one on the harmless looking first page- if you scroll through the character bios, there is a chance that this image of the Gallery Master will appear instead.
- One Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl named Kageboshi will send you to a page that plays several Jump Scares in quick succession if you don't (or can't) deal with her in time. Failing to defeat Ichimatsuko will also trigger this.
- Clicking on the presents in Xmaschallenge.html will sometimes cause a similar string of Jump Scares to play...pitch-shifted to the tune of "Jingle Bells".
- Luck-Based Mission:
- edeuenatseurre.html consists of eight chests, one of them containing the key to the door. You must click on the one that has the key, but if you click three wrong ones, Psycho kills you and you get a Game Over. The location of the correct chest resets every time.
- In atelierdesu.html, you start in a room, and you have to click left or right to get a painting with a gun inside it so you can shoot the enemy when you turn around. However, there is a chance you will not get a gun when you click on the painting- you need to keep clicking until you get the correct side with the gun.
- The bonus Noh Mask coin game requires you to input coins which will run a slot machine until you get a circle. You only get 20 tries, and it is likely that the coin will miss or you will get an X.
- Madness Mantra: In 2arcfancymain.html, below the ghost woman is a string of "I'm sorry" in Japanese characters.
- The Maze: mmeaizreo.html is a maze wherein you must rapidly go either left or right to escape the giant Noh Mask pursuing you.
- Monster Clown: The Pieyama God looks rather strongly like Ronald McDonald.
- Nightmare Fuel Coloring Book: One image in the gallery is of this, with a paper of a drawing of a boy with blood covering everything but the boy.
- Number of the Beast: One of the hexes of the font colors for the line of text directly under the picture of Mimi is #666666.
- Rock–Paper–Scissors: Several of the enemies are fought by playing RPS against them. If you win a throw, you hit them; if they win, they hit you; if it's a tie, giant eyes appear on the screen and both sides take a hit.
- Schmuck Bait: At one early room, you come across what appears to be a hallway in a library, with a door appearing to lead to the gallery (the goal of the game). Clicking the door leads to a trapdoor and death by spikes.
- Sexy Santa Dress: Mimi wears one in a gallery image. It's pretty modest in comparison to most, covering her figure up until her boots.
- Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl: Many of the enemies are this or have this appearance.
- Surreal Horror: The web game takes place in the titular Amusement Park of Doom where all sorts of monsters, nearly all of whom have a Nightmare Face, dwell and attack the player. Gameplay consists of navigating the various webpages of the maze-like website, with surreal monsters like floating Evil Masks and doll heads that cry Tears of Blood, distorted heads that explode when you click them, the Monster Clown Pieyamas, a monster with an upper body consisting entirely of eyes, a slew of Stringy Haired Ghost Girls, and instances of The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You. None of it is given any explanation whatsoever.
- Tears of Blood: Some of the apparitions do this, like the Elizabeth masks, Cursed Dolls, and Eris.
- Unexpected Gameplay Change: Most of the game is a puzzle-exploration-horror, but the cfoaansctyer.html room is a Rail Shooter on a minecart where you have to shoot down enemies as the cart moves to its destination.
- Villains Out Shopping: Bizarrely, two sets of LINE stickers featuring many of the game's monsters with Nightmare Faces were released, showing them doing mundane everyday things like dressing up for Halloween or enjoying an ice tea.
- Whack-a-Monster: The Ichimatsukos have two mini games where they will pop out, and a certain amount must be killed within the time limit.
- "Ja, sayonara!"
