Gameplay

Lunar: Silver Star Harmony is a traditional, top-down role-playing video game featuring two-dimensional character and background graphics. While it retains the animated cutscenes from Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete, it features a new isometric view, a hand-drawn style for the characters and backgrounds, a more talkative lead character, a remixed soundtrack, new voice-acting and a new English localization. The gameplay itself remains the same, although it incorporates improvements from Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete as well as ultimate attacks akin to Final Fantasy's Limit Breaks.

Plot

The story of Lunar: Silver Star Harmony is identical to Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete, with the exception of an additional short playable prologue featuring the original Four Heroes (Dragonmaster Dyne, Ghaleon, Mel D'Alkirk and Lemia Ausa) and their final fight against dark wizard Eiphel and his allies, the Five Princes of the Black Star, who have abducted the previous incarnation of the Goddess Althena.
