Thyria is an RPG, a unique combination of dynamic exploration, turn-based combat and crafting. Summon and train a team of Guardians, who will accompany Thyria into the minds of the cursed villagers. Help them vanquish their nightmares.
You take on the role of Thyria, a witch who can enter the cursed dreams of villagers. During the exploration phase, you navigate a procedurally generated 2D isometric map, collecting valuable resources like Soul Dusts and Inks while facing various encounters, some of which may lead to battles.
The core of the gameplay revolves around summoning and customizing a team of 14 unlockable Guardians to accompany you into the dreamscapes. You can strategically combine and assign spells to your Guardians, increasing the depth of the tactical combat.
A unique and praised aspect of the combat system is the dynamic day/night cycle. Each Guardian's spells have both a day and night version, with different effects and strengths. The cycle shifts during combat, forcing you to adapt your strategies and make the most of your Guardians' abilities. Mastering the interplay between day and night spells is key to success.
Alongside the combat, the game features a robust crafting system. You can combine Soul Jewels to summon new Guardians, as well as craft various Charms and Equipment that provide modifiers to enhance your team's capabilities. This crafting and progression system allows for a high degree of customization and replayability, as each playthrough can feature a different Guardian team and set of tools.
The procedurally generated 2D isometric maps, along with the varied Guardian abilities and crafting options, contribute to the game's high replayability. Each adventure is unique, presenting you with different challenges and gameplay opportunities to explore and conquer.
