Indie action RPG fans, rejoice! Developer Lunarium Game Studio and publisher Imperfect Games have officially released Lunarium, a gorgeous hand-drawn isometric ARPG, on PC via Steam.
If you are a fan of fluid parry-heavy combat, atmospheric storytelling, and stunning hand-crafted art, Lunarium brings a fresh perspective to the genre with its unique dual-protagonist mechanics and melancholic fantasy setting.
Two Heroines, One Cosmic Fate
At the heart of Lunarium is the interwoven journey of Ave, a light-armoured knight who stands at the vanguard, and Lune, a mysterious Starfarer sorceress floating alongside her. Together, the duo must traverse a crumbling, dying world to retrieve the lost glow of the stars, unlock forgotten memories, and push back ancient evil.
Unlike games where companions take a back seat, Lunarium integrates both heroines into a unified combat system:
- Ave (The Blade): Direct melee combat relies on high-risk, high-reward timing. Pulling off tight dodges and precise parries turns enemy strikes back on them, opening windows for devastating punishment.
- Lune (The Catalyst): As you execute clean combat actions with Ave, you generate Resonance Points. Spending these allows Lune to cast elemental spells, weaken tough foes, amplify combined damage, and manipulate the environment.
Precision Combat Meets Deep Customisation
Combat in Lunarium rewards patience, pattern recognition, and decisive counters. The fight logic draws inspiration from precision-based action games—making every block, parry, and execution feel deeply satisfying.
Out of combat, Lunarium offers robust RPG customisation to tailor your playstyle:
- The Embroidery System: Equippable charms (embroideries) grant game-changing passive perks to fine-tune your battle tactics.
- Cloak & Gear System: Choose different cloaks and upgrade paths to shift Ave from a deliberate, heavy counter-attacker into an agile whirlwind.
- Expansive Skill Trees: Level up both characters to unlock coordinated combo attacks and devastating dual abilities.
- Environmental Puzzles: Utilise Lune’s cosmic powers outside of battle to uncover hidden secrets across ancient frostlands, floating archipelagos, and ruined castles.
Price and Availability
Lunarium is available starting today on PC via Steam for $17.99 / £15.99 / €17.99, featuring a 10% launch discount for its first week.
