'''Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon''' (フラジール ~[[さよなら月の廃墟~]], ''Fragile: Sayonara Tsuki no Haikyo'') is a third-person [[Action RPG]]/[[Adventure Game]] developed by Tri-Crescendo, the same team who made [[Eternal Sonata]] and had a hand with the [[Baten Kaitos]] games. Released on the [[Nintendo Wii]], the story tells of an [[After the End]] scenario, where the world's population has vanished and their cities have been abandoned. The [[Player Character]] Seto has just buried the old man he's been living with, and upon reading a letter from him encouraging Seto to go seek out other survivors, he packs up and heads to the "[[Tokyo Tower|red tower to the east]]." During his journey, he finds a [[White-Haired Pretty Girl|silver-haired girl named Ren]], the [[Ridiculously Human Robot|motherly Personal Frame (PF)]], the [[Jerkass|mischievous Crow]], an [[Mysterious Waif|enigmatic ghost named Sai]], a [[Cute Ghost Girl|quiet spirit named Chiyo]], the [[Intrepid Merchant|recurring chicken-head-wearing Item Merchant]] and {{spoiler|the [[Mad Scientist]]}} Shin.
 
That's practically it, really - ''Fragile Dreams'' is marketed as an "atmospheric adventure," focusing on "human drama" and emotion. While it plays similarly to a [[Survival Horror]] game, it's not horror outright, instead settling for being eerie, sad, lonely, depressing and (rarely) disquieting, while also relying heavily on the player's ability to draw his or her own [[Fridge Horror|conclusions]] about why most things are they way they are.

{{quote| Whenever there is something on the ground, a gathering of fireflies just above it will signal its position to you.<br />
Why would fireflies be attracted to it?<br />
Indeed. Well... maybe... it is because... it is summer? Perhaps?<br />
...huh. Right. }}
* [[Late Arrival Spoiler]]: Ren's name isn't revealed until the very end of the game - she's simply referred to as "the silver-haired girl" - yet most discussions about the game refer to her by her name (including this page...oops). To be fair, it has no bearing on the plot, and [[Trailers Always Spoil|her name is given in the character section of the]] [[All There in the Manual|instruction booklet]].
