❤ Gameplay Blends Action and Social Mechanics

The game's core loop combines dungeon exploration and hack-and-slash combat against "infected" enemies with relationship-building between the protagonist and a cast of quirky characters.

❤ Challenging, Rhythmic Combat

Players must precisely time their dodges and counterattacks to break enemy shields and land effective combos. Reviews praise the combat as "fun and challenging", requiring "relentless attacking" and mastery of the dodge/parry timing. However, some note the combos can feel repetitive, with little variation between weapon types.

❤ Progression Through Social Links

Character growth stems not only from leveling up stats and gear, but also from spending time with companions. Deepening these relationships unlocks unique skills and spells usable in battle, drawing clear inspiration from the Persona series. Players must carefully balance social activities, scavenging, and dungeon crawling.

❤ Navigating the "Wall"

The dangerous dungeon areas known as "the Wall" task players with overcoming traps, puzzles, and even "dancing minigames" under strict time constraints. Reviews describe the dungeons as "interesting" but "extremely short" on the whole, wishing for more depth and variety.

❤ Difficulty Balancing Act

The difficulty seems inconsistent - some found the "perfect balance" of challenge on higher settings, while others felt the combat was "too easy" due to the lenient dodge timing. Recommendations are to play on easier difficulties to minimize frustration with the "unresponsive" and "clunky" combat system.
