About Earthlock: Festival of Magic
What starts as a simple quest for desert-scavenger Amon,
develops into a journey. Several unlikely heroes join forces to
save Umbra, a beautiful but harsh world that mysteriously
stopped spinning thousands of cycles ago.
Players roam Umbra and get to know the cast of unique
characters. At the same time they test their tactics in
expansive turn-based fights. Combat-turns happen instantaneously
with overlapping moves for fast, responsive battles.
Key Features
Character Talent Tree : allows each player to customize their
character to match their unique style of play.
Character Combat Pairing : pair characters to create a battle
bond, that upgrade with new combat perks.
Harvesting : harvest spud and elemental plants, and craft these
materials into useful combat ammunition and potions.
No random Combat Engagements : each enemy is visible in the
world which allows the gamer to kite enemies, creating large
battles and maximizing experience points.
Earthlock's main story offers more than 30 hours of gameplay.
Exploring the world of Umbra and its inhabitants and completing
side-quests offers many more hours of gaming fun.
