Created by Nootbox Games with a core team of two people, the game is a 2D {{Metroidvania}} inspired by games like ''[[Franchise/TheLegendofZelda Zelda]]'', ''[[Videogame/DarkSouls Dark Souls]]'', [[Videogame/CastlevaniaOrderOfEcclesia Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia]], [[Franchise/{{Kirby}} Kirby]], and more obscure Playstation 1-era [[ActionRPG Action RPGs]] like [[Videogame/BraveFencerMusashi Brave Fencer Musashi]]. It is a considerably challenging game, with the difficulty considered to be more in the range of [[SoulsLikeRPG Souls-like games]] than most in the Metroidvania genre.

Added DiffLines:

* MagicKnight: Although other Runists seem more on the [[SquishyWizard squishy mage]] side of things, Illyia and Solina focus on using their conjured swords just as much (or even more than) more typical Runic.


Added DiffLines:

* SummonToHand: Illyia can quickly summon her conjured runic blade to her hand to an instant.
* PowerCopying: One of Illyia's core abilities is being able to steal a Rune from any enemy and use it to cast runic spells inspired by that enemy's weapon or skillset.

''Rune Fencer Illyia'' is an upcoming [[Platform/IBMPersonalComputer PC]] PlatformGame about Illyia of Moonstone, a teenage girl and fledgling Runist who wakes up in the debris of the [[CoolAirship airship]] she had been traveling on. Now, she finds herself in the [[AdvancedAncientAcropolis Sunken Kingdom of Ithos]], a mythical ancient island that supposedly sunk beneath the waves thousands of years ago. Illyia must explore this strange, ruined world that she's arrived in, find her missing twin sister, and the way home.

Illyia of Moonstone is a young, tomboyish [[MagicKnight Runist-in-training]], seemingly incapable of performing most kinds of Runic, outside of [[SummonToHand summon a conjured runic sword]]. While her timid twin sister Lilly of Emerald is considered a genius child prodigy capable of using an immensely powerful Emerald glyphstone, Illyia has yet to graduate past a beginner's glyphstone: the humble but versatile Moonstone.

As the game begins, Illyia gains the ability to temporarily [[PowerCopying steal an enemy's Rune]], using their own abilities and weapons against them. She eventually also learns skills like [[WallRun running on walls and ceilings]] and [[TimeStandsStill temporarily stopping time]].
