Sea of Stars is a turn-based RPG that brings a classic adventure to mobile devices in a more modern edition. The game follows two children of the Solstice, who use the powers of the sun and moon to perform Eclipse Magic, the only force capable of opposing the monstrous creations of the evil alchemist known as The Fleshmancer. It is a game that combines nostalgic pixel art visuals, world exploration, turn-based combat, and a story about adventure, friendship, and unpredictable events. The mobile version is specially adapted for touch gameplay, featuring a redesigned interface, support for Google Play Games achievements, cloud save, and controller compatibility.
