The object is to recognize the kind of firework and use it to your advantage. Then there are different chains. Lighting off more than one flare is considered a chain. There are daisy chains, Stars, and Starmines, among others. Using multiflares, players can connect different colored flares, such as red flares with green flares, or blue flares with green flares, and so on.
Multicolored flares are key to earning high scores.
The gameplay part of FantaVision requires skill, timing, and quick reactions. FantaVision will either catch you or leave you dry instantly. There is very little gray area where you sort of want to play. It s simple and somewhat addicting in the single player mode, and what s nice is that Sony Computer Entertainment America added a two-player mode in the US and European versions of the game, so the slight addiction is even greater. The two-player mode pits human vs. human with a single vertical line splitting the screen.
