Gameplay:Battle Mechanics

When you encounter enemies during the course of the story, the game will switch to the battle screen.

How To Battle


Tap a character button to attack your enemies!



Tap an enemy character to target it for attack!

Battle Timing and Chains
Try to tap just when the sound-effect text bunches together in the middle! The better your timing is, the stronger the attack! You'll see how well you did with the "GOOD", "GREAT", and "PERFECT" display onscreen! You can also get a "MISS" if you fail to tap a character button, so be careful!



You'll keep the chain going as long as your attacks are "GOOD" or better! Build a chain of "GREAT" or "PERFECT" attacks for even more attack power! The chain will be cancelled if you get a "MISS".



Once everyone on your crew attacks, you'll see "DOOM!" onscreen. Watch the sound-effect text and tap when it's dead center for the coup de grace!

Battle Turns


You'll go on to the next turn once all of yours allies have attacked or you cancel the attack midway.

Enemies will attack once the number above their heads reaches zero!

Type Slots
Types are picked at random in the slot display next to each character during battle.

If the type matches that character's attribute, their attacks will gain a power boost (doubled)!



By the same token, when the opposing type is displayed in a character’s slot, their attack power will be cut in half.



Restore HP
If you see a piece of "Meat" in the slot display, that's your chance to heal! Tap the character to eat the meat and regain some HP! Your HP will be restored based on your total Crew RCV.



You can't eat the meat if you get a MISS or PERFECT.

Tandems
Some characters can unleash special Tandem (TND) attacks if they're put together in battle! These Tandem attacks can deal massive damage to your foes. If you see the [TND] slot display appear, that's your big chance. You'll need to build a chain in order using GOOD attacks or better to unleash a Tandem.



Specials
You can unleash Specials once an ally character's Special Gauge fills up after the character has taken a certain number of turns! Turns required are displayed on the character button in the Special Gauge.



Flick your finger across the screen when your character's gauge is filled and the Special button is lit up to unleash that character's Special. Some Specials deal damage to foes, while others make the battle easier for the whole party.
