About This Game

A broken seal. A region of legends. Another world in the mirror.

Take up arms as Ginés Almagra in a 2D action-exploration metroidvania rooted in the folklore of Murcia, Spain. Recover the five fragments of his family's seal, uncover what broke it and follow the mystery beyond the looking glass.

Murcia, reimagined as a dark legend

Explore castles, irrigation channels, mines, snow wells and forgotten sanctuaries inspired by Monteagudo, Cartagena, Lorca, Sierra Espuña and the Mar Menor. Meet the Mora Encantada, the Mussona and other figures drawn from local legends and Spanish festivals. Traditional food, music, relics and stories give the journey its own Murcian character.

Choose your reach. Find your opening.

Build your fighting style with weapons, shields, armour, accessories and seven familiars. Balance reach, attack speed, recovery and elemental effects. Block, perfect-parry and use the openings in an enemy's attacks. Avíos are your sub-weapons; their charged Arrebato attacks offer another way to turn a fight.

Discover relics that teach ensalmos: incantations performed with directional inputs and an attack. They consume Ánimo, your slowly recovering Spirit resource, so timing matters as much as the combination.

Return with a new way through

New movement abilities and incantations open passages you could not reach before. Follow clues, break concealed walls, solve local mysteries and seek out optional areas, equipment and fragments of the world's story. Maps bought from merchants help you plan your next journey while keeping hidden rooms secret.

Cross into the Envés

Beyond the mirror, familiar places reveal a darker reflection with stronger enemies, different rewards and new encounters. The path to the second ending asks you to look beyond the first conclusion.
