Fantasy Zone (ファンタジーゾーン) is a side-scrolling shoot-'em-up by Sega, originally released in 1986 for Sega System 16 arcade hardware. It is the first entry in the Fantasy Zone series, a franchise that would be supported by the company in the late 1980s but largely abandoned by the mid-1990s.

NEC Avenue published a port of the game for the PC Engine and TurboGrafx-16.

Story

“	Long ago, far away in space, there existed a "Fantasy Zone" where a couragous hero called Opa-Opa (the player) fought in a valiant cause to rescue the "Fantasy Zone" from its enemies.	„

In the Space Year 6216, the interplanetary monetary system collapsed, causing all of the planets in the Fantasy Zone to become panic-stricken. An official inquiry made by the space guild reveals that someone is leading the Menon planet forces, using them to steal the foreign currencies of the other planets and construct a huge fortress in the Fantasy Zone with the stolen funds. To put an end to the Menon forces' ambitious plans, Opa-Opa promptly takes off for the Fantasy Zone.
