The narrative unfolds as the Gate to the Chasm bursts open, leaving behind gaping fissures that spread destruction and ooze malevolence. In this unforgiving wasteland, existence is precarious at best. During your journey, you cross paths with Agnes and a girl with twin ponytails dyed pink, igniting the spark for your grand adventure.

Build bonds with the characters, activate Total Assault, and more

What truly captivates me is interacting with and nurturing intriguing characters such as Vee and Freya. They belong to four unique classes: Spellweaver, Ghosthunter, Ironclad, and Voidblade. As you advance, you’ll have the opportunity to strengthen relationships with them, and you can trigger Total Assault to overwhelm your adversaries.

In simpler terms, the game appears quite intriguing with its cute, anime-styled characters, high-quality visuals, voice acting for all characters, catchy music, character development, strategic planning before battles, social features like a Guild system, Monica’s cooking feature, and many other aspects. The combat system reminds me of Silver and Blood, but I personally prefer it without the chibi style.

The game “Elpis: Fallen Star” has been released in open beta on Android devices within the United States, United Kingdom, and Philippines. If you reside in any of these countries, you can now get the game from Google Play Store. As for iOS and global launch, we don’t have updates yet. Keep checking back for more news!
