Promising the Sabotage touch in every system, Sea of Stars aims to modernize the classic RPG in terms of turn-based combat, storytelling, exploration and interactions with the environment, while still offering a hearty slice of nostalgia and good old, simple fun.
Sea of Stars is a single-player role-playing game. The story follows two children of the solstice, Valere and Zale, who train to become Solstice Warriors. Gifted with lunar and solar magic, they are tasked with combining their powers to perform Eclipse Magic, the only force capable of defeating the monstrous creations of an ancient alchemist known as the Fleshmancer. The journey takes them across islands, dungeons, and ancient ruins, as they gather allies and uncover the secrets of their world while attempting to prevent a looming catastrophe.
Combat is turn-based and emphasizes timing, positioning, and combinations of abilities. Standard attacks and spells can be enhanced by pressing a button at the right moment, increasing damage dealt or reducing incoming damage. Characters have limited magic points that regenerate through regular attacks, encouraging a balance between physical strikes and special techniques. Enemies possess locks that can be broken by using certain damage types, allowing players to disrupt powerful abilities.
Progression is party-focused, with six playable characters who can be swapped into combat seamlessly. Each has distinct abilities, from offensive magic to support skills, and players can mix their powers in combo attacks for greater effect. Characters grow stronger by gaining experience from battles, and their abilities can be customized through equipment and relics that adjust difficulty or mechanics.
Outside of combat, the game emphasizes exploration in a side-scrolling environment that allows swimming, climbing, and solving environmental puzzles. Navigation is designed to be freeform, giving the player more direct interaction with the world compared to tile-based movement. Side activities expand the adventure with fishing, cooking meals from gathered ingredients, and playing a board game called Wheels, which offers a strategic diversion from the main quest.
