5 itemsAbout the Game
The stars flicker and fade. Eyes watch us through rifts in the eternal night.
Grab a tome, kindle your lantern, and step into the dark. Join the scholars of the final star as they unearth the truth of a calamity that slowly fractured their sky.
[Blend up to 3 classes per party member. Discover arcane schools of combat.]
Store and spend "risk" as a Riskbreaker to manipulate RNG to your favor. Combine the Riskbreaker class with low accuracy skills in a 2nd and 3rd class to defy the odds.
Or combine it with pet skills from the Moonfang or Artificer. Summon a wolf and infuse a tree with magic to make a pine needle death turret. Spend your banked risk deflecting attacks while companions attack the enemy.
Discover practitioners of the game's 13 classes, each seamlessly introduced through character stories that peel back layers of the world's lore & mysteries. How did the Artificers learn to animate the earth? Who are the Bladesealers, and why does the world fear them? What is it about the Lifebinder's technique that lets them close a planar rift?
Hunt every answer and build your party from the techniques you learn along the way.
[Burn skills to adjust your strategy and attract greater threats.]
Any skill can be burned, unleashing unique effects and disabling its use for the remainder of the battle. You only have 8 active skills in battle, but "burn stacks" let you switch an active skill for another when it is burned.
Burn carefully, as each skill burned raises risk of a chain encounter. Or burn with abandon in the hunt for rare and unique enemies that only appear at peak levels of threat.
[Express yourself in both strategy and style.]
Explore dense, non-linear regions packed with important discoveries. Each piece of equipment is singular—uniquely tailored with specific augments that magnify or change your strategy. Recover lost techniques in each style of combat, shaping your character's stats and options in battle.
Freely change hats, hairstyles, and outfits. Strategy doesn't dictate your style!
[A two person party... or more?]
A pair of adventurers can equip for nearly any challenge, but the world has more threats than any two can take alone. Multi-party dungeons test your breadth, and unique encounters bend systems so far you'd think they would break.
[Cozy up to the campfire.]
The world of Estelle Igni may seem unwelcoming, but detailed system toggles tailor to your needs. The world is crafted for player expression first and foremost. Overcome every unwelcoming difficulty, or step around them, or crush them with cheats. Breathe slowly and enjoy the depth of the endless night sky.
[The world has demands, but you don't have to answer them.]
The mystery of the stars can always wait. Explore. Have a meditative time in Limina.
