The game uses a top-down exploration view and turn-based battles. Players travel between towns, dungeons, and the world map while advancing the story and recruiting allies. Combat features normal attacks, spells, items, and combo techniques, while key story moments trigger army battles and one-on-one duels. As more characters join, the headquarters expands and unlocks shops, appraisal, forging, and other services, creating a strong progression loop.

Gremio

Flik

A calm and capable rebel swordsman who is trusted on the front line.

Recruit important characters early, since many side recruits affect headquarters growth and ending conditions. Keep a balanced supply of healing items to maintain your party through long dungeons. In war battles, pay attention to hints and enemy unit types before choosing attack, defense, or special commands. Because resources are limited, focus on training a small core team of damage dealers and healers.
