Lhea and the Word Spirit is an upcoming single-player roguelite game created by solo developer Jo Drolet. Set to release in August, the game allows players to guide lost souls through enigmatic worlds as they navigate the delicate boundary between life and death, with the assistance of an ancient Word Spirit. The game features unique minimalist visuals and an intriguing battle system focused on manipulating timelines.
In Lhea and the Word Spirit, players will experience a dynamic timeline during battles, where they can equip and upgrade various enchanted rings. These rings not only grant different spells but also aid in uncovering hidden secrets that reveal the mysteries of the In-Between. The game’s roguelite nature ensures that players will need to adapt their strategies, as no two runs through the procedurally generated realms will be the same.
Jo Drolet expressed his vision of creating a charming world that explores the themes of life and death, designed to captivate players and immerse them in a blend of unexpected discoveries, strategic gameplay, and uplifting music. For those eager for an early experience, a demo will be available during the Steam Next Fest from June 9th to June 16th. This offers a great opportunity to engage with the game before its official release.
