Description
Product Details

“Magical Librarian Ariana: The Books of the Seven Heroes” is a captivating 2D action RPG by Compile Heart, released for Nintendo Switch. You play as Ariana, a librarian with the power to enter enchanted books and restore the lost tales of seven legendary heroes.

The game combines fast-paced side-view combat with strategic magic use, featuring aerial combos, charge attacks, and elemental burst moves. Each spell carries unique attributes—chain them together to unleash devastating elemental volleys that can turn the tide of battle.

Players explore diverse “Repair Points” inside each hero’s book, experiencing time-limited puzzles and intense boss fights. Correctly repairing these tales grants Ariana temporary form changes, unlocking enhanced magic and special elemental weapon skills.

Featuring a charming anime-inspired soundtrack and vibrant pixel art visuals, the game also offers quality-of-life features like auto-save and adjustable difficulty. Ideal for fans of action RPGs and magical fantasy themes, this title offers engaging gameplay and world-building.

The collector or any JRPG lover will appreciate the pre-order content: a special DLC item called “Umi no Shiori” (Sea Bookmark), which provides early in-game benefits and serves as a collectible keepsake.
