Lunar: Silver Star Harmony is a traditional, top-down role-playing video game featuring two-dimensional character and background graphics.

The gameplay itself remains the same, although it incorporates improvements from Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete as well as ultimate attacks akin to Final Fantasy's Limit Breaks.

The story of Lunar: Silver Star Harmony is identical to Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete, with the exception of an additional short playable prologue featuring the original Four Heroes (Dragonmaster Dyne, Ghaleon, Mel D'Alkirk and Lemia Ausa) and their final fight against dark wizard Eiphel and his allies, the Five Princes of the Black Star, who have abducted the previous incarnation of the Goddess Althena.

At release, a limited edition of the game was also available, which includes a soundtrack CD and full set of bromides featuring the female characters.

[2] David Clayman of IGN gave the game a 8.2/10, praising the remake's visuals, as well it's writing and story, but felt the combat system "shows its age and will eventually bore some players[...] used to the more complicated or action-based battle systems found in Crisis Core or Dissidia might be surprised by Lunar's simplicity.
