About Numina

Step through the 4th Wall…



…into the world of NUMINA. You get in contact with Shawn who is able to hear your voice through the 4th wall! You meet in a very critical moment where Shawn loses someone very close to him while being swept up in a conspiracy that involves your mutual bond. A plot threatening to shake the foundations of the world.

The world of Alterna is filled with a mysterious power called Life's Breath. It enables magic, fueled technological advances, and brought great prosperity to many. Ships no longer needed to solely depend on wind, perishable food could be refrigerated, and barren soil brought bountiful harvests with Life's Breath.

This was all done under the supervision of the Ecclesia, an omnipresent organization representing the teachings of Proserpina: a goddess who once walked Alterna like a normal human and brought the gift of Life's Breath to all. In Alterna, no one doubts Proserpina's existence, as her body is freely displayed to all in Ecclesia's center of power, Cor. In her favor temples are erected everywhere, which allow Life's Breath to flow into the world. But is it really that simple?


Shawn and you slowly uncover the dark secret of Ecclesia and together you will experience a captivating adventure that combines many classic RPG aspects: A character-driven story in which your relationships change the course of the story, a dynamic battle system, challenging puzzles, towns waiting to be explored and other exciting locations!

Numina released in two parts. The base game was released in July '22 and Part II released as DLC in March '23.

Key Features

  • Breaking the 4th Wall
    The 4th wall is a concept from theater where the actors on stage directly interact with the audience. In the same fashion, you partake in the story of Numina as a character in the form of a bodiless voice that only Shawn can hear - a guardian spirit. You can interact with Shawn and influence his decisions through dialogue choices in the game.
  • Branching Decisions
    The decisions you make influences the relationship Shawn has with the other characters you'll meet in the game. Having good relationships with your party members unlocks powerful combo-attacks in battle and may open up the opportunity to take your relationship to the next level ♥ Your decisions also influence the overall course of the story to conclude into one of the four possible endings.
  • Battle with the Elements
    Engage in a round-based combat system with action inputs for some attacks that require you to make timed inputs for maximum damage! Each character also has unique elemental abilities to exploit enemy weaknesses. Incorporate this into your strategy to quickly win battles.
  • Explore the World of Alterna
    Most side quests in NUMINA allow you to dive deeper into the backstory and lore of the world. But you can also explore the beautiful scenery with your grappling hook to reach higher places and find new gear, spell scrolls or rare items.

A solid story and characters, charming pixel art, and it's clear this was made with a lot of love. If you like classic jrpgs and story-focused games, definitely check this out!

A pretty rudimentary and unpolished game. The combat is super simplistic and not at all interesting. The story is fine, sorta, but the gameplay is not good at all.

The game is sooo good, i remember playing it pretty much non stop just to see what's going to happen next there's so much content
Not recommended Oct 17, 2025
It's too slow. I wish you could speed up the walking and especially the dialog. The dialog either lags or characters pause too long. There is hardly any combat and the story is trite.
