Luminaria: Forgotten Echoes lets you manipulate shadows to explore a deserted Earth, now on pre-order on iOS

Crescent Moon Games has announced the upcoming launch of Luminaria: Forgotten Echoes, letting players experience a unique little puzzle game on iOS devices. The atmospheric title features minimalistic visuals along with an evocative soundtrack, offering a meditative experience without any words.

In Luminaria: Forgotten Echoes, you'll dive into a different kind of Earth as a lonely bio drone - essentially, you'll explore a deserted planet by manipulating shadows to traverse a variety of platforms and shapes. There's a pervading sense of melancholy here despite the vibrant colours, as it seems like humanity has met its end across this beautifully tragic wasteland.

If that sounds like it's right up your alley and you're keen on more brainteasers, why not take a look at our list of the best puzzle games on iOS?

While there are no signs of life here, you can still find something pleasant to discover in every level, as you play witness to the final days of mankind while tinkering around with shadows along the way. The game also features an intuitive control system, extra challenges, gorgeous music, and "Hidden Memories".

There's no official word yet as to the exact release date, but if you're eager to join in on all the fun and experience the game for yourself, you can do so by pre-ordering Luminaria: Forgotten Echoes on the iOS App Store. It's a premium title that's at a 50% discount at the moment for only $0.99 or your local equivalent.
