Ruzar: The Dark Stones

About

Ruzar: The Dark Stones is a single-player RPG set in a sequel to 2021's Ruzar - The Life Stone. You navigate hand-drawn environments filled with puzzles and combat as you track down mysterious artifacts called Dark Stones. The game emphasizes exploration and resource management, with dungeons designed to challenge reflexes and problem solving. Combat blends real-time action with tactical pauses, letting you adjust strategies mid-fight. The sequel expands on the first game's core loop with sharper level design and more complex interactions between magical systems. Hammer Glass Studio's attention to environmental storytelling shines in the eerie, shifting landscapes. With a July 2024 release window, it's shaping up as a tighter, more focused follow-up for fans of methodical dungeon crawlers. PC exclusivity keeps the platform lineup straightforward.
