Players build up their deck by acquiring new cards as they progress through the game's procedurally generated levels. The card pool contains over 150 unique cards, allowing for a wide variety of deck-building strategies and synergies to be explored.
Each card represents a different action, such as dealing damage, applying status effects, or summoning ally characters. Cards require a certain amount of "magic" resource to play, which is generated each turn, forcing players to strategize which cards to use and when. Some cards have unique mechanics, like drawing additional cards or discarding cards for benefits.
Players can summon ally characters using Summon cards, providing various buffs and support abilities to aid in battles. Effectively utilizing these summoned allies is a crucial part of many successful strategies.
Players unlock Charms - powerful items that provide unique passive abilities - between runs. Combining Charms with the right card deck can create synergistic builds. Players also earn in-game currency to purchase permanent upgrades, unlocking new starting decks, cards, and costumes for the protagonist.
The game's levels feature a randomly-generated layout and enemy encounters, requiring players to adapt their strategies with each playthrough. This adds replayability, as players must overcome new challenges during each run.
