About Kotama and Academy Citadel
Kotama and Academy Citadel follows a mysterious exchange student competing for the Carmel Star, the highest honor at Carmel Academy Citadel. As the academy approaches its centennial anniversary, the Carmel Star Election is about to begin. You play as Kotama, exploring the sprawling academy to reach the competition’s goal and uncover what is at stake for the school and your own fate.
Explore the academy
Carmel is a technology-driven citadel where survival of the fittest is the only law. Its labyrinthine areas contain impossible machines, reality-bending illusions and self-contained biomes. Each area tests your fluid powers against deadly traps. New abilities let you revisit earlier zones to pass illusory walls and locked gates, finding shortcuts, secrets and unexpected treasures.
Fight as Kotama
Kotama’s fluid constitution lets you move quickly through hordes of bizarre enemies. You can switch weapons seamlessly and combine them with skills and Memocards to chain attacks into combos. When your energy peaks, unleash a Fluid Detonation to clear the field.
Powerful creatures and robots guard different sections of the academy. Each has its own attacks and mechanics, and can defeat you quickly. Learn their patterns, parry at the right moment to neutralize lethal strikes and break their stance; then use the brief bullet-time openings to land a decisive blow.
Find allies
Other unusual students are scattered throughout the Academy Citadel. Help them, learn their stories and earn their loyalty as allies in your search for the Carmel Star. Choices that seem small can affect the outcome, potentially saving the academy and deciding your fate.
Choose your difficulty
Difficulty settings let you focus on the story and exploration or opt for combat that demands greater skill. On a more relaxed setting, you can search every corner for gear, weapons and upgrades to refine your build. Higher difficulty pushes your combat mastery further.
