The game uses an overhead grid map for turn-based battles. You move allied units, choose attacks, spirit commands, and support actions, then exploit range, terrain, and unit matchups to defeat enemies. Progress is chapter-based, with each stage rewarding money and experience used to improve robots, train pilots, and refine sortie formations. Success depends on balancing frontline tanks, ranged attackers, and support units.

Yuma Hiekawa

An original series protagonist often serving as the player-side command focus.

Algar Zoldark

An original character associated with the conflict and major story events.

DC Army

The main enemy faction made up of multiple commanders and forces.

Invest early resources into reliable main units instead of spreading upgrades too thinly. Use agile units to scout and draw fire, while heavier attackers stay behind and deal damage safely. In boss fights, clear surrounding enemies first and then finish the target with stacked accuracy boosts and strong attacks. Terrain bonuses, repairs, and resupply units are all important for stable clears.
