It has been stated in many game magazines that it is "the most underrated game of all time" and that it did not get as popular as it deserved. This game used a cel-shading method for the characters and also marked the first appearances of several prominent Klonoa characters, such as Lolo, Popka, Leorina, and Tat. It returned to the series' roots and had more in common with the original game than the other titles in the series. Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil was released for the PlayStation 2 with moderate success in 2001. Though it was very similar in style and execution to the previous game, it was developed for the more sophisticated Game Boy Advance hardware and was also available in North America and Europe. Despite lacking the artful style of the first game, Moonlight Museum set the standard for the approaching Game Boy Advance titles like Klonoa: Empire of Dreams, which came out two years later. It is Klonoa's first handheld appearance and his first fully two-dimensional one. Klonoa's second appearance, Kaze no Klonoa: Moonlight Museum was released solely in Japan for the Japanese-only WonderSwan handheld system in 1999. This version was released in North America on May 5, 2009, and in Europe on May 22, 2009, as Klonoa. These include new costumes, Mirrored Visions, and challenge areas. It features completely revised graphics and voice acting, as well as many unlockable bonuses that were not in the original. A remake of Klonoa: Door to Phantomile by the same name was released on December 4, 2008, in Japan for the Wii console. It was described as 2.5D to distinguish it between other games that relied totally on one or the other. Klonoa: Door to Phantomile was not only Klonoa's first adventure, but also one of the first PlayStation platform games to feature two-dimensional character artwork on a rendered, three-dimensional backdrop. Klonoa: Door to Phantomile was released in late 1997 in Japan and was critically well received by numerous gaming publications and magazines. He added a large hat with a Pac-Man emblem on it and collar to give the character a childlike and energetic quality. His next design was created with characteristically animal eyes and long ears, as Arai felt that a person's eyes and silhouette are the features noticed when they are first met. However, he felt that the lack of color did not seem tasteful, and dropped the design. Arai's first design, "Shady", had a shadow-like appearance. His attitude is innocent and even a bit naive, as shown in Klonoa 2.

He is easily able to befriend characters along the way who support his cause. Wanting to be a hero, he is young and good-hearted, and is willing to go against all odds to make sure justice is served. He has Namco's mascot Pac-Man on the side of his blue hat. His traditional voice actor is Kumiko Watanabe, though he is voiced by Eric Stitt in the English version of the remake of the first game. Klonoa is described within the games and manga as a "Dream Traveler", who is fated to travel to various places where the state of dreams is in danger, but he himself isn't aware of that.
