On the outskirts of town lies a mansion said to house the entrance to a maze overflowing with treasure. Do you wish to discover the magical mysteries hidden inside?
Players can create a party of up to 40 characters, with 15 combat members and 25 support members. Each character offers a variety of classes, skills, and equipment, allowing players to fine-tune their builds. The game introduces "covens" - squads of 1-3 combat characters paired with 1-5 support characters. These covens grant unique bonuses and abilities, which players must strategically assign to vanguard or rearguard positions.
The game features an interconnected dungeon system that players must explore. Players can break walls, set up shortcuts, and mitigate environmental hazards, adding strategic depth to navigation. The auto-mapping system and the ability to mark points of interest streamline the exploration process. Players can also encounter roaming enemies and strategize their engagements before initiating combat.
The combat system departs from the typical individual character commands, instead allowing players to control their entire coven as a unit. This encourages strategic planning and leveraging the collective abilities and synergies of the coven. The wide range of skills, spells, and status effects, combined with the "secret crest" limit break abilities, provide ample depth for combat optimization.
As players progress, they unlock new classes, skills, and equipment upgrades for their party. The game's synthesis system allows players to dismantle and combine items to create more powerful gear. Additionally, the ability to inherit skills from one character to another adds further depth to the party-building and customization process.
