RemiLore: Lost Girl in the Lands of Lore is a Roguelike Hack and Slash Video Game by REMIMORY and Pixellore Inc.

Remi is a young girl who's been tasked with cleaning the library as punishment for her low grades. While she's cleaning, she happens upon a living, one-eyed book that wakes up. Seeing it makes her freak out, which causes the book to freak out and teleport them to another world.

They end up in Ragnoah, a world of magic floating above another land. Obviously, neither are very happy about this, and want to get home. Problem is, teleporting them to Ragnoah took a lot out of the book (whom Remi names Lore because his actual name's too long for her liking), so the two of them are going to have to work together to find portals that can take them home.

The game was released on February 26th, 2019.


RemiLore: Lost Girl In The Lands Of Lore contains examples of:

  • Achievement System: The Achievements menu accessed from the Start Screen.
  • And Your Reward Is Clothes: About a dozen alternates costumes are available from the start, with even more for unlocking. These range from standard Fanservice Costumes like Sailor Fuku (complete with Toast of Tardiness), bikinis, and Sexy Secretary to odder ones like DJ and Construction Worker to shout-outs and mascot costumes...including Isaac!
  • Animate Inanimate Object: Lore, a living, floating, one-eyed book.
  • Anti-Wastage Features: If Remi tries to buy a health restorative, she gets a "Your health is full." message in red text when so. Also she can't use the health and mana restoratives dropped by enemies if she's full up.
  • Attack Speed Buff: The Speed Boost spell increases attack speed and movement speed for a period of time.
  • Batter Up!: Old Clunky, one of the unlockable weapons in the game, is a baseball bat with a couple nails in it.
  • Boring, but Practical: The Freeze spell does not affect stage bosses, but freezes everything else with 100% success. Levelling it up increases both the area and duration, rendering large groups of enemies completely helpless. Pair with a strong weapon and watch the S ranks roll in.
  • Broomstick Quarterstaff: The weapon that Remi starts with in the game is the broomstick she was sweeping the library with at the start of the game. It's quite effective at wrecking things.
  • Crate Expectations: Crates are among the smashable objects in the game.
  • Critical Hit: Some weapons affect them like how the Balloon sword has "+Critical Rate Boost".
  • Cyclops: Lore only has one big bright blue eye.
  • Dual Wielding: One type of Sutole mecha-monster holds a hammer in both hands.
  • Eye Scream: In the "Craft Scissors" Flavor Text:
    Keep them pointed away from you or you'll gouge your eye out.
  • Expressive Ears: Lore's ears are located in the top corners of his front cover. They flop down when he's unhappy.
  • Flavor Text: The weapons, for example:
    • Remi's Broom:
      Remi has her very own broom! Awesome!
    • Sewing Needle:
      A useful thing to keep around, in case a button falls off your shirt!
    • Tennis Racket:
      A tool for volleying a ball back and forth, back and forth...
    • Old Clunky: Even though it's a bat with bolts in it, it's a One Handed Sword:
      An old, reliable bat. Be careful of the metal bits or you'll get tetanus.
    • Cricket Bat: Even though it's a bat, it's a One Handed Sword:
      A common bat used for cricket.
    • Fire Iron:
      A common fireplace poker... for poking fire of course.
    • Balloon Sword:
      A wacky birthday party weapon that packs a surprising punch.
    • Wooden Toy Sword:
      For rough horseplay and other shenanigans.
    • Golf Club:
      Used for golf, but feel free to hit whatever you want with it.
    • Ice Hockey Stick:
      Ideal for hitting hockey pucks... but can whack enemies, too.
    • The Soup Scourge:
      A common soup ladle.
    • Field Hockey Stick:
      Used the play hockey on land, before ice was discovered.
    • King's Sledge:
      The protruding shapes are especially good for crushing bones.
  • Heart Container: A question mark scroll, a.k.a random upgrade, might be a Max Hit Points booster of 100, good only for the current try at the game.
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: Remi starts the game off with a One Handed Sword, "Remi's Broom". It's a broom.
  • Improbable Weapon User: One of the One-Handed Swords is a giant Sewing Needle, piercing through the red button that's the crossguard.
  • Life Drain: What the Cricket Bat and Ice Hockey Stick mean by "Blood Drain".
  • Life Meter: Remi has a red one.
  • Loading Screen: The main animation being a running Remi. If it goes on long enough, she gets inverted hashtag-type Wingding Eyes, presumably because of the exertion.
  • Mana Drain: The effect of the Field Hockey Stick.
  • Mecha-Mooks: The enemies in the game are the mecha-monsters, a series of robots that will attack Remi on sight.
  • Money Multiplier: The "Desserts Drop Boost" effect, found on multiple weapons, such as the D-rank Old Clunky and its C-rank version, Golf Clubs.
  • The Multiverse: In 1-3 or so, Remi can ask Lore about other worlds, and he confirms it. Also saying that there are too many dimensions for an ordinary human to see them all.
  • Named Weapons: Some of the weapons, such as "The Soup Scourge", which makes it sound more awesome than the Flavor Text indicates, or vice-versa.
    A common soup ladle.
  • Non-Lethal Bottomless Pits: In certain places, Remi can fall off Ragnoah, where she should dash across a gap. If she does fall off, she takes some damage and returns to where she fell off from.
  • Notice This: Lore has a yellow glow in the library warehouse where the game starts, to entice interaction, since the only other things that Remi can do is sweep and walk around.
  • Our Humans Are Different: When Remi asks about Ragnoahian humans, Lore responds that the local humans "do have eyes, a nose and a mouth". But:
    But there are different lands where some have longer noses, or more hair, or even shiny skin.
    Remi: That's... not really similar to me... I can't imagine...
  • Overly Long Name: Lore's name has at least 5 parts, all joined by dashes:
    Lore-Setani-Aunger-Manar-Chopar-
  • Rare Random Drop: Sometimes enemies will drop Health Potions.
  • Reduced Mana Cost: An effect called "+Mana Cost Decrease" that applies to some weapons such as the Sewing Needle or Balloon Sword.
  • Rewarding Vandalism: Breaking objects, be it at Remi's hand, or a mecha-monster's attack, will yield desserts for Remi.
  • Shear Menace: The Craft Scissors, one of the weapons in the game, is a giant pair of scissors Remi can wield like a sword.
  • Shout-Out: The obvious ones being the various costumes available:
  • Skewed Priorities: Remi can remember that she has homework, and state that that makes her rethinking going home. Lore lampshades that:
    Lore: This world is perilous! Is your homework more dangerous than these mecha-monsters?!
    Remi: No... I just don't wanna do homework...
  • Stamina Burn: Well, Drain. It's the effect of the King's Sledge.
  • Starting Equipment: The Broomstick Quarterstaff, "Remi's Broom" that Remi has, even in the library warehouses, where there's no combat.
  • Suspend Save: The only way to save mid-run. It preserves Remi's Dessert Points, current weapon, Hit Points, and Mana Points, while reloading at the beginning of the stage and respawning the enemies, breakable objects, and stores, while a New Game refills all of Remi's meters, while also randomizing the stage again.
  • Sweatdrop: Lore gets one when his dialogue box says "*sweats*" as he's being questioned as to how he ended up in the library that Lore was cleaning.
  • Tastes Better Than It Looks: A conversation in Sutole has Lore make a meat-dish that's the inverse, especially given how his master was a highly experimental chef, who never ate their own food. And a conversation in Jenua notes how Lore's dishes beyond deserts are tasteless.
  • That's No Moon: In Jenua, Remi can remark that the moon looks bigger than it did on Earth, and justifying that it's because how she's high up in a floating city. Lore corrects her:
    Lore: The moon? Oh... you mean the floating city. You can see one there, and another aaaaall the way over there.
  • Training the Gift of Magic: Lore says that his master would train humans with talent, in magic. Remi would want to learn, but... [Forgot the dialogue]
  • Visible Silence: "..." is what Lore's second dialogue box of game says, and Remi's response, but the voicelines say, "ahhh." and "oooh."
  • Weapon of X-Slaying:
    • The Tennis Racket has a damage boost against Bosses.
    • The "Craft Scissors" have a damage boost against slowed enemies.
    • The "Wooden Toy Sword" deals extra damage against stunned enemies.
  • Worthless Treasure Twist: Lore's aesop for Remi when she asks about a reward for finishing the tutorial. He says:
    You must endure these obstacles with your own strength... so you can earn something... to make your life more... worthwhile...
