* ''VideoGame/{{Eroica}}'' is primarily fantasy since it delves much more into magic and races other than humans, with the sci-fi mostly put into ancient artifacts, abandoned technology, and research done and applied by the independent Tech-State of Tan, which is explored by the main characters in the campaign's second act.

* "Franchise/{{Masters of the Universe}} has elements of this. The main character is muscle-bound, loin cloth wearing beefcake with a magic sword, who hangs out with a wizard and a robot, has faced cyborgs and monster men, and frequently deals with tech that wouldn't feel out of place in a Star Wars film.

* The ''Wiki/SCPFoundation'' is primarily a SciFiHorror universe about an organization of {{Mad Scientist}}s who are trying to understand various paranormal/supernatural phenomena, and they attempt to contain and minimize any damage to the world caused by more dangerous anomalies. While the articles are generally written in a (pseudo-)scientific and clinical tone, much of what they're trying to describe defies any logical explanation whatsoever. The various [[EldritchAbomination Lovecraftian entities]] they have in their custody include [[MechanicalAbomination strange robots and powerful machines]], severely mutated [[HumanoidAbomination humans]]/[[AnimalisticAbomination animals]]/[[BotanicalAbomination plants]], [[StarfishAlien extraterrestrial/extradimensional monsters]], and outright magical beings such as [[OurSpiritsAreDifferent spirits]]/[[OurDemonsAreDifferent demons]]/[[OurAngelsAreDifferent angels]]/[[OurGodsAreDifferent gods]]. Though the titular SCP Foundation is loathe to describe anything they encounter as being explicitly "magical".

* ''VideoGame/GuardianTales'' seems more like a standard fantasy RPG at first glance, but then modern stuff like phones, airships, movies, and... [[Website/{{Facebook}} Facebreak]] start to get thrown your way as you explore the world. And that's not all: there's Demon World, a dimension separate from humanity that's practically {{cyberpunk}} up the wazoo, inhabited by the aforementioned Demon race.

* ''VideoGame/Journey2012''. Besides the beautiful sand that submerged the world, glyphs, magical cloth, and the impaired buildings, technology is uncommon at most. You fly using the energy bundled in your scarf, and although there exists an ancient language you can't seem to talk at all, even the game hardly shows any text beside from the logo and closing credits. Singing near large pieces of cloth can release "cloth creatures" from the machines' remnants. Glyphs and confluences teach you the history of a civilization started by your ancestors. The reason why the game [[spoiler: takes place AfterTheEnd is the machines powered by energy from red banners destroyed the world in a war against the White Robes]].

* Broadly speaking ''Series/StrangerThings'' is presented as sci-fi, drawing aesthetic inspirations from 80's alien horror movies. However, there is a very strong thematic connection to ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', and as the series goes on it engulfs more fantasy tabletop tropes. Ultimately, neither the Upside Down (which the pitch bible claims has strick rules, [[spoiler:which in the season 4 finale work very much like ritual magic]]) nor the psychic powers ([[spoiler:which ultimately stem from a single person born with them]]) are fully explained in scientific terms.

* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' is {{steampunk}} combined with fantasy. Most of the weird stuff can be explained by technology, but not everything. The magic includes stuff like the river Dyne (which is an apparently natural spring the waters of which make the drinker a mad genius, though in most cases it's instantly lethal. [[ILoveNuclearPower It also mutates creatures into monsters and can be used as a power source]]), Geisterdamen (who look like ghost-like beings, though they're solid enough), Frankenstein-esque reanimated corpses, Jaegermonsters (non-human beings with superhuman strength and [[LongLived lifespans]] who are former humans who drank the [[SuperSerum "Jaegerdraught"]]), multiple cases of BrainUploading, the [[GeniusLoci castle Heterodyne's]] seemingly telekinetic ability to move chunks of itself, and the whole deal with {{GodEmp|eror}}ress Albia of Britain.
