I want to say that although Luvocious isn't a direct prequel to Solenars Edge Rebirth or Restoration. Also in no way shape or form are these games needed to be played before Luvocious. Though it's important to note that some of the lore is tied in Luvocious. Keeping that in mind, it would be strongly suggested you do play these games as well to fully comprehend the jokes and references to the lore within Luvocious. Especially the Fantasy Era which takes place in Alcornagia; the world within Solenars Edge Rebirth.
