Technical aspects
AI: The Somnium Files has three-dimensional graphics styled to resemble two-dimensional drawings. The designs of the characters, done by Yusuke Kozaki (Fire Emblem Awakening, No More Heroes), and locations were prepared in the manga style, characteristic for many Asian productions.
