Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is set in the Land of Fumes, where human-like machines known as Homunculi are created as part of plans to expand the kingdom. However, the Homunculi are driven to insanity by toxins released from beneath the land, turning them violent and causing humans to flee for their lives. An Attuner, a being with the ability to purify unnatural souls, known as Lilac, is faced with the decision of either saving humans or Homunculi. Players will battle scores of monsters and can convert enemy bosses into allies with the aid of the Spirit Reaper. The game features 30 different skills that can be obtained from allies, leveling up at rest points, four friendly powers that can be equipped simultaneously to adapt to various combat situations, lore-filled notes about the tragic kingdom, collectible items, and upgradeable equipment.
