Second Stone demo released on Steam

Skyward Entertainment and Headup have released a free demo for their action RPG, Second Stone, on PC via Steam. The demo is part of Steam Next Fest and follows a previous closed playtest.

The game features a mechanic where players switch between two versions of the same environment, the Light World and the Shrouded World, to find alternative routes through areas. Players develop the character Shiren using the Astral Tablet talent system. Character customization includes equipping Manastones to weapons and gear to change elemental attacks and spells. Players can also modify spell properties, which allows attacks like Fireball to track enemies, explode on impact, or split into multiple projectiles. The main hub, Arimaya Village, includes a dice-based card minigame called Mana Clash.
