Our take on The Tarnishing of Juxtia
Energy Rush defines the combat: consecutive attacks can trigger increased stamina and mana regeneration, making continued aggression a calculated risk during fights.
What is The Tarnishing of Juxtia?
Explore the remains of two sacred realms consumed by the Tarnishing in a two-dimensional action role-playing game with dark-fantasy themes.
The Energy Rush mechanic grants faster stamina and magic recovery after successive strikes, creating combat that weighs aggression against risk. Fights feature bosses with several stages, including fallen holy figures, colossal relics of past conflicts, altered beasts, and wrathful deities. The campaign spans 15 distinct areas and exceeds 20 hours, with optional quests and interwoven lore. Weapons, protective gear, spells, Relics, and concealed objects allow different character setups. Defeated bosses yield Relics that can be kept and charged, then unleashed as Ultimate powers when encounters become especially demanding.
