About the Game:
A Story that Unfolds
A familiar backdrop story introduces the game as the protagonist's hometown is besieged by demons, setting the stage for an epic battle against the demon king.
However, Astlibra consistently hints at a more intricate narrative beneath the surface. While the story may appear unremarkable it gradually evolves into something unexpected and captivating. This subversion of traditional plot elements extends to the characters you encounter and recruit, endearing them to you as comrades.
Venture Forth
ASTLIBRA Revision is broken up into multiple chapters as you join the leading character and Karon,his talking bird companion, as they confront time and their fate. Stamina, power and skill are essential as you aggressively face huge bosses that fill the screen as a side scrolling action ceaselessly and fiercely continues. Collecting the most appropriate weapons/equipment is essential and strategic application is required to win a battle.
