The game combines top-down exploration with turn-based battles. Players travel between towns, dungeons, and the world map while advancing the story. In combat, each job class changes stats, equipment options, and battle roles, letting players assign offense, healing, and support as needed. Progression is driven by exploration, resource management, and job experimentation, with airships and other transport unlocking broader world access later on.
