Phantasm Catalyst

About

The world broke when the Chronovore came, a hunger that eats time. What was left drifts apart in the Rift as Phantasm: realms that only remember themselves. Sora, the Ark's last navigator, can still make a phantasm real again, but only with a crew.

Choose two of sixteen heroes, each from a different broken realm, and lead them through salt deserts, lantern cities, ink forests and storm-wracked seas. Every battle is a puzzle you can read: every foe shows what it will do and when, and every skill you cast ticks their countdowns down. Spend your mana, weigh Swift skills against Overload, wait for the right moment, and strike before they do.

When a hero refuses to give up, their power breaks loose: Awakenings that rewrite their skills, Apex forms, Worldseals that bend the battlefield to one person's will, and Fracture Strikes that crack the air itself, each with its own animated cut-in. The Sovereigns who rule each realm rise to meet you, and transform before your eyes when you break them.

Between battles, choose your road: fights, elites, events, camps, shops and treasure. Train your crew, forge and enchant your gear, recruit new crewmates, and grow closer around the fire. Lose, and the Ark remembers: every voyage earns Ark Memories that unlock heroes, gear and Sora's charts.
