About the Game

Embark on a little HeartsLike Action-RPG inspired by the 1001 Arabian Nights.

Faris is a young boy who finds himself stranded in Noor City, a mystical place trapped beneath an endless night. With the city ruled by the evil Masked King and overrun by evil jinn born from darkness, its people have begun to lose both their light and their hope.

To find a way home, Faris must explore the streets, rooftops, markets, ruins, and palaces of Noor City while uncovering the truth behind its eternal night. Master fast-paced combat, wield powerful magic, discover new weapons and abilities, and form bonds with memorable characters who will stand beside you against the Masked King.

Action-RPG Combat

Face enemies in fluid, real-time battles built around responsive attacks, aerial combos, guarding, parrying, dodging, and well-timed counters. Learn your enemies’ patterns and combine your combat options to overcome increasingly dangerous encounters.

Magic Abilities

Harness a growing arsenal of magic and use it to control the battlefield. Strike enemies with Lightning and Ice, launch them into the air with Tornado, protect yourself with Deflect, recover with Healing magic, and unleash the devastating power of Flare.

Combine magic with melee attacks, experiment with different abilities, and adapt your strategy to the challenges ahead.

3D Platforming and Exploration

Leap, climb, and navigate your way across rooftops, bustling markets, forgotten tunnels, ancient ruins, and other hidden corners of Noor City. Use your movement abilities to discover secret paths, valuable rewards, and new areas to explore.

Character Progression

Expand Faris’s combat options as you progress through the adventure. Unlock new abilities, discover different weapons, and customize your available skills to suit your preferred playstyle.

Memorable Characters

Meet a diverse cast of characters, each with their own history, struggles, and motivations. Help them confront the darkness in their lives, earn their trust, and gain valuable allies in the fight to restore Noor City.

A Vibrant World Beneath an Endless Night

Explore a richly detailed fantasy world inspired by Middle Eastern culture and folklore. Journey through colorful markets, winding alleyways, mysterious dungeons, grand palaces, and other striking environments hidden beneath Noor City’s star-filled sky.
