Crescent Prism

About

Crescent Prism follows Lunita as she navigates a sudden tragedy during her village's annual moon festival. This RPG blends narrative choices with turn-based combat as players guide her through a world where ancient traditions clash with unfolding chaos. Each decision impacts relationships and outcomes while tactical battles require adapting to enemy patterns and terrain advantages. The story unfolds through dialogue and environmental storytelling as Lunita uncovers secrets about her role in the crisis. Torch60's 2017 release emphasizes character dynamics and strategic depth over flashy mechanics. With 12 distinct enemy types and branching dialogue options, replays reward attention to detail. Community discussions highlight the emotional weight of key moments where player choices directly affect supporting characters. Available on PC since late 2017, it maintains a small but dedicated player base on Steam.

Storyline

Each year, the people of Merryday give their thanks to the moon during the Crescent Festival. Though antiquated as Lunita sees it, her mother Astrid is confident that she will one day understand its importance, as expected of the one who would take her place as Oracle. Little do Lunita and Astrid know that a great disaster would befall them on the eve of the festival, changing their lives forever.
