FAQ – What is Lumini?

• What kind of game is Lumini?

Lumini is best described as a flow adventure game. Most players perceive Lumini more as an experience, rather than a challenge (even though there are still creatures and other hazards out to get your Lumini!). There are no cut-scenes, dialogue or load times – it's one continuous journey and the story is told through the environment around you.

• How long is the game?

The game can be completed in around two hours on a single play through if you don't explore everywhere. However, there are a number of collectables to discover and a more challenging difficulty that unlocks when you complete the game for the first time.

• How can I get the different types of Lumini?

The kind of Lumini you summon are based on your actions in the game:

  • Stunning/attacking enemies gives you red Lumini
  • Evading enemies gives you blue Lumini
  • Collecting the yellow orbs gives you yellow Lumini

• How many Lumini do I get when giving energy to the crystals?

You need one more energy that the last for each Lumini that you spawn. For example: the first Lumini costs you four energy, the second one needs five, the third takes six, and so on.

• What are the purple crystals I find and collect at hidden locations?

They unlock surprises for you! You can view these from the main menu under Extras.

• I'm having difficulty controlling two separate swarms at once – what can I do to make it easier?

You can use a button (Right Shift or LB by default) to control both swarms simultaneously using only the WASD-keys or the left analog stick.
