Very Interesting!!
The music and atmosphere are incredible. The moment you open the app, it feels like you’ve stepped into another dimension. The stories it creates, the beautifully designed cards, and the way everything comes together make journaling feel like an experience rather than a chore.
Is it worth the subscription? In my opinion, absolutely! I’ll definitely be subscribing once my free trial ends.
My one suggestion for improvement would be to add an option to have the stories read aloud by a narrator. I think that would make the whole experience even more immersive.
Such a unique and creative approach to journaling. I’m really impressed!
Response from developer
Thank you so much for this. It means a lot, especially from someone who has tried so many journaling apps. Making journaling feel like an experience rather than a chore is exactly what Lumen is for, so I'm really glad the music, the cards and the stories came together that way for you. Having the stories read aloud by a narrator is a lovely idea, and I've added it to my list for future updates. Thank you for taking the time to suggest it. I hope Pythia keeps weaving chapters worth reading. Cristian, maker of Lumen Grimoire

Thank you so much! We hope you enjoy! Thanks for your support we really appreciate!
Can’t believe I waited so long to review
Some of the writings are nice to read back and see Pythia’s responses. Some are good, a few are a little… interesting. But I wouldn’t say any are ever bad. I did see a small issue of the last response on the five card draw rarely getting cut off. However the developer is extremely responsive and figured out and fixed the problem very quickly.
Definitely looking forward to using this app the rest of the year. Looking back on it helps me realize how much I actually forget about in my thoughts and feelings.

Thank you for this — and for taking the time to write something so considered. "It helps me make a journey out of days" is the thing I most hoped someone would eventually say out loud. That's the whole idea of the app, and seeing it come back in someone else's words is a strange and lovely feeling. Something you might like knowing: several of the companions are my own cats. Their expressions, their postures, the particular way one of them sits and judges me from across the room. They're in there, and I see them every time I open the app. Especially one… Ade. Thank you also for flagging the five-card draw getting cut off. That was a genuine bug and you helped me find it — fixed in 1.0.7. The music means a great deal to me too. It was chosen to slow you down before you write, so hearing that it sets the mood is a real compliment. As for a printed deck — you're not the first to ask, and I've started taking the idea seriously. And since you're planning to stay for the rest of the year: weather fables are coming. I won't spoil what they are, but the sky outside your window is about to start mattering.
