How would a world shaped by people's power of will look like?
Awake your anima in this single-player action-RPG that mixes fast-paced Hack N Slash combat with strategic JRPG elements. 'Focus' to weave the flow of combat, assault the flying Citadel of Indomita and help Juno find answers to clear the deadly Mist of Oblivion!
But beware, for there are ¨Battles of Wills¨ awaiting you; boss battles that you have only one chance to beat and that will define the outcome of the story.
Experience a unique character-building system based on psychological typology that allows you to shape and develop your anima through your actions and choices; evolve by assimilating other users’ natures and master the system that defines both the mechanics and characters of this game!
Combining fast paced Hack N Slash combat with turn-based JRPG strategy into a new mixed system, Arcanima’s gameplay feels unlike any other. Each combat is a puzzle in time waiting to be solved by your unique playstyle. Fight relentlessly or pick apart your enemies by parrying their attacks. Use well timed abilities like you would in an JRPG or combo your enemies with style like you do in a Hack N Slash. Own the combat, the choice is yours!
Dominate the flow of combat and unleash mighty abilities using the Focus Mode to momentarily slow time! Get info on your enemies, plan your next actions and manage your resources, but be careful! You can only spend a limited amount of time on Focus. Easy to use and difficult to master, this feature is a window into the nuanced anima system and how the strengths and weaknesses of different anima natures interact with each other.
Immerse yourself in a deep and extraordinary world that will reel you into its own pace. Conquer a flying citadel full of places waiting to be discovered, solve engaging puzzles and find valuable objects that will mark the difference between win and defeat, all within a beautifully crafted and stylized alternative fantasy environment!
Join Juno and find meaning on her journey to clear the Mist of Oblivion in a story that speaks about how this path is different for everyone, your-self included.
