Crunchyroll's 'The Star Named EOS' Evokes Ghibli Mystery

The Star Named EOS is now available on mobile via the Crunchyroll Game Vault. Developed by Silver Lining Studio, this narrative-driven puzzle adventure first launched on PC and consoles in July 2024. The studio is also known for Behind the Frame: The Finest Scenery, another beautifully hand-painted adventure title.

What’s the Story in The Star Named EOS?

You play as Dei, a young photographer on a mission to uncover the truth behind his mother's disappearance. As he revisits the old travel photos she sent him during his childhood, he begins noticing strange inconsistencies that spark an emotional and mysterious quest.

The experience unfolds like a photo album, where every page holds unexpected discoveries. By examining each photograph, you must reconstruct the scenes by exploring environments and solving clever puzzles. Most puzzles are thoughtfully designed and intuitive to solve.

Visually, The Star Named EOS is stunning. Its hand-painted art style creates a rich atmosphere, with many locations evoking a dreamlike quality. The character designs, particularly in brief cutscenes, may even remind you of a Studio Ghibli landscape.

Why not explore The Star Named EOS for yourself and experience its beautiful visuals firsthand?

What Other Features Does It Offer?

The Star Named EOS includes controller support on mobile and offers multiple language options. To access it through Crunchyroll Game Vault, you'll need either a Mega Fan Premium or Ultimate Membership.
