Valis: The Fantasm Soldier (夢幻戦士ヴァリス, Mugen Senshi Varisu?) was the first video game in the Valis series. Telenet Japan originally developed and published Valis in 1986 for the MSX and PC-88 home computers. Tokuma Shoten would later release a version for the Famicom in 1987. In 1991, additional publishers Riot (Japan) and Renovation (US) released versions for the Sega Mega Drive (also called Sega Genesis in North America). An enhanced remake of the Mega Drive version was also released for the PC-Engine CD. In 2005, Telnet released another remake of the game, this time for mobile phone platforms in Japan. The game spawned several sequels including Valis II, Valis III, Valis IV. The Valis series stars a Japanese schoolgirl named Yūko Asou (麻生 優子, Asou Yūko?), who uses a mystical sword called Valis to defend Earth, the spirit world and the dream world.

Famous quotes containing the word soldier:
“The little toy dog is covered with dust,
But sturdy and stanch he stands;
And the little toy soldier is red with rust,
And the musket moulds in his hands.
Time was when the little toy dog was new,
And the soldier was passing fair;
And that was the time when our Little Boy Blue
Kissed them and put them there.”
—Eugene Field (1850–1895)
