When Kindrick receives an urgent message from his estranged brother, he hurriedly sets out for the magical realm of Lydia. There, he discovers a land plagued by a sinister curse — one that warps magic wielders into fearsome monsters. As Kindrick comes to terms with his own magical legacy, he must navigate challenges and dungeons on the quest to find his brother and break the Lyre’s curse.

Wield the Elements

From roaring flames to soaring winds, you’ll learn lots of elemental spells as you progress. Mastering them is the key to solving puzzles, defeating enemies, and discovering everything Lyre has to offer.

Fearsome Foes

The Lyre’s curse twisted once-great magic wielders, called the Attuned, into dark monsters. You’ll need quick thinking, and even quicker spellcasting, if you’re going to defeat them.

Puzzle-Filled Dungeons

The curse didn’t just corrupt the Attuned, it turned their academies into dangerous dungeons filled with puzzles and enemies. Use your magic, and your wit, to conquer them all.

Challenge and Charm

Lydia may be under a curse, but it’s still full of charm. You’ll encounter delightful characters and unforgettable places — and Kindrick might just be the cutest otter in the adventuring business.

Think with Your Wand

Lyre is packed with interactive objects, hidden items, and secrets around every corner.  Whether you’re solving ancient puzzles or just cutting grass for fun, your spells shape how you play.
