The game uses a third-person viewpoint, with players placing traps in rooms and corridors to lure enemies into range and trigger chained damage. Progress is divided into chapter-like stages with specific objectives and enemy layouts. Success depends on reading the terrain, door positions, and wall spacing, then combining throws, knockbacks, dashes, and traps to force enemies along a planned route. Story choices also influence the ending.
Millennia
The protagonist, a girl drawn into the war between Timenoids and humans, whose allegiance depends on player choice.
Timenoids
An immortal race with human-like forms, central to the conflict driving the story.
Learn each trap’s trigger timing, range, and knockback direction before trying to build long combos. Tight corridors are ideal for chains, while open rooms require stronger route control first. Save high-damage traps for elites and mission-critical targets instead of spending them on ordinary enemies.
