Cris Tales developer We Are Dreams has released a gameplay trailer for its next game, Prisma. The game’s art direction is heavily inspired by Persona 5 but has plenty of mechanics to help make it stand out.
Prisma follows a photojournalist named Alma who finds a magical camera that transfers her to another world called Domacon, filled with other Almas from the multiverse. Friend, foe, or NPC, each Alma has a Prism Shard that grants them magical abilities in battle, and rival Almas will try to steal them.
The game’s turn-based combat is inspired by Persona 5 as well, but has some key differences. Players are able to use Alma’s camera filters to distort reality and apply buffs to the entire party of alternate Almas, such as using a fisheye lens to bypass enemy shields or a shattered lens to turn a single-target attack into a multi-target one.
Alma will also be able to interact and form bonds with the other versions of herself in the party, which unlocks new combos and side quests. There will be seven different Almas to bond with, although a max of four will be allowed per run.
Prisma is set to launch for PC. We Are Dreams is best known for the RPG Cris Tales back in 2021. In GameSpot’s Cris Tales review, we said, “Though it doesn’t quite stick the landing, Cris Tales is an enjoyable turn-based RPG adventure with a lovable story about a found family bending time to save the world.”
