01 · The Concept

Match gems, charge the hero

A young explorer travels across Aurelia's floating islands. Every match on the gem board powers her attacks on the Hollow's creatures and restores the sanctuaries.

02 · The Golden Sanctuary

Aurelia

Temples on floating islands, golden bridges between sanctuaries and rivers of light. At its center beat the Heart of Eternity, which kept six primordial forces in balance.

Then the Hollow came from beyond the edge of reality. The guardians broke the Heart into six relics, raised the Veil, and Aurelia was forgotten.

03 · The Awakening

The shard chose her

Centuries later the Veil is thinning. Lyra Venn, a young explorer mapping ruins, finds a glowing teal shard in a collapsed temple. It opens a door in the sky to Aurelia, half in ruins.

At the first temple, Glim, the last of the sanctuary's keepers, wakes up and joins her.

07 · The Hollow

It was guarding something

Wisps, Shade Golems and Veil Wraiths guard every relic. At the end waits the Hollow itself: a mask of black and violet crystal facets with one great magenta eye.
