Gameplay is presented from a first-person perspective with pseudo-3D movement through labyrinthine stages. Players explore ancient buildings, stone corridors, and enclosed courtyards while using sword attacks and other actions to defeat monsters. The interface tracks hit points, mana, and defense, suggesting some progression and resource management elements. Advancement is stage-based, with exploration, combat, and survival forming the core loop.

Yan Chixia
The young swordsman protagonist, drawn from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, who fights demons and navigates supernatural dangers.
Keep an eye on mana and defense values, not just attack power, because survival depends on both offense and durability. Learn enemy patterns before rushing into melee, and use movement to avoid being surrounded in tight corridors. Explore carefully for safer routes or useful resources, since the levels emphasize navigation as much as combat. Prioritize clearing narrow choke points one at a time rather than engaging groups head-on.
