Sea of ​​Stars for Switch is available for just £24.99with an exclusive 29% discount for Amazon Prime members.

The game was released in August 2023 to rave reviews, and its Switch version currently has a must-win rating of 90/100 on review aggregator Metacritic.

The Amazon Prime deal is for the physical edition of the game, which launched just a few months ago on May 10, 2024.

Sea of ​​Stars pays homage to some of the greatest old-school JRPGs, like Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario, Golden Sun, and the early Final Fantasy games.

While staying true to its inspirations, the game also modernizes the gameplay and narrative of the beloved genre.

You follow the story of two main heroes, Zale and Valere, who harness the power of the sun and moon to fight an evil alchemist known as The Fleshmancer.

Sea of ​​​​Stars features gorgeous pixel art visuals and a turn-based combat system with some added twists.

Timing attack and defense actions, for example, increases the damage you inflict and reduces the damage you take.

Your main heroes can also combine their sun and moon spells to perform powerful Eclipse Magic attacks, and there are other multi-character combos you can do with members of your party.

In short, Sea of ​​Stars is a great game, and the Prime Day deal is a bargain on a very recent physical release for the Switch.

Players have just a few hours to close the deal before midnight tonight, when the game will return to its regular price.
