Obsidian Catalyst

A huge love letter to the Shining Force series!

Dive into the world of Lossock and uncover the mysteries of the Obsidian Catalyst as you command a squad of up to 12 units in dynamic and strategic tactical battles.

In the sleepy, countryside town of Vinheim in the South of the country of Rilinth, Eremar and his friends spend their days enjoying each others company and exploring the nearby countryside.

One evening one of their group spies a strange phenomenon occurring in the forest near the village and so the following morning they head out to explore the forest and delve deep into some ruins, unaware that they are about to be tangled in a mysterious country-wide plot rooted in the “Obsidian Catalyst”.
