Praecantor Lila ~ Bell Spell is the inaugural installment of Lunacy Indeterminate's Praecantors series of bullet hell shoot-em-up titles.

Take on the role of Lilavera Westbrook, a praecantor- or witch, as she embarks on a journey to locate her missing, non-magical human friend, Ellisanne Martyrose.

Players will be tasked with completing the game's campaign in Story Mode or Arcade Mode. The story consists of six stages of increasing challenge, all set and timed to an original score for stages and bosses. In the Story Mode, you approach the stages one-by-one and experience the game's cutscenes and character dialogue, but in Arcade Mode, all breaks in the action are stripped away as you attempt to complete all stages consecutively.

Important to the plot is a strange bell that absorbs magic when rung, which is reflected in the central gameplay mechanics. Ring bells to clear enemy fire and absorb gold and other bells- stacking bells together with lots of gold and bullet deletions will send your score into the stratosphere ... alternatively, leverage their magic-sealing properties to protect yourself!

There are three difficulties in the game, Casual, Original and Super- which range from actively assisting the player with mechanics, to being bitterly, insurmountably difficult. Good luck!
