Nights of Azure overcomes its tropes and the occasional bit of fan service with a heaping helping of content, stylistic panache, and one of the most memorable gaming narratives in recent memory.
In "Nights of Azure," explore a gothic-inspired world where demons have taken over at night. As protagonist Arnice, a holy knight, you must fight off these creatures while also protecting your friend and potential sacrifice, Lilysse. The game features fast-paced action-RPG combat with a focus on forming strategic bonds with other characters to enhance abilities and defeat challenging bosses.

Critic Reviews
Nights of Azure Review - Blue Blood, Red Heart
Overall, Nights of Azure is challenging, but it is fun and rewarding when those challenges are overcome. The game isn’t overly ambitious, with a small world, simple objectives and seven chapters of story content. Even so, it can inspire many hours of gameplay and engage the imagination.
85%Review: Nights of Azure
An Exercise in apathy, neither solid nor liquid. Not exactly bad, but not very good either. Just a bit 'meh,' really.
