❤ Timed Turn-Based Combat

Players must hit precise timing prompts to execute effective attacks and blocks in the combat system. Properly timed inputs grant stronger attacks and more reliable defenses, while missed inputs result in weak attacks and failed blocks. This timing-based mechanic keeps players acutely focused during battles, as mastering the timing is essential to overcoming the game's unforgiving combat encounters.

❤ Balancing Offense and Defense

The gameplay requires players to carefully manage their "Purity" resource to not only attack effectively, but also block and counter enemy moves. Recklessly prioritizing offense can easily lead to defeat, so players must strategically alternate between aggressive and defensive actions based on enemy patterns. This balance of offense and defense is crucial to success.

❤ Extensive Customization Options

Each playable character has a deep pool of attacks, abilities and equippable gear that can be customized. Players can outfit their party members with a variety of weapons, armor and accessories that meaningfully modify their stats and move sets. This allows for a high degree of build customization, as players can fine-tune their party's capabilities to handle different enemy types and scenarios.

❤ Intentional Enemy Encounters

Rather than random battles, all enemy encounters are deliberately placed within the game world as unique challenges. This ensures that every combat scenario feels meaningful and impactful, rather than mindless filler. It also encourages thorough exploration, as players are incentivized to seek out and engage with the diverse range of enemies and bosses across the game's realms.

❤ Difficulty Options and Retry System

The game's combat is notoriously challenging, especially early on before players have mastered the mechanics. However, an "Infinite Retry" option allows players to immediately restart battles upon defeat, preventing frustrating setbacks. Additionally, the difficulty can be adjusted at any time, making the combat more accessible for players of varying skill levels.
