Once the player has moved all their characters, the enemy turn proceeds in the same manner. Unique to the game is the creation of a "Burning Aura" which forms on the space immediately behind the target of the attack a second character can move into that space and strike for extra damage, or if a character is already in that space, the Aura will move with that character and increase the power of the attack on that turn only Burning Auras disappear after one turn. On each turn, for each character, the player can move and then perform an action such as attacking, using items or skills each action awards a number of experience points to the character. Prior to battle, the player can manage character equipment and abilities, and then select which characters to bring into battle. These skills can improve a character's stats or bestow offensive, defensive, or recovery skills. Each character also has a number of skill slots skill gems that can be purchased, won in battle, or produced by combining other gems together. For example, Sol is stronger against Stella, but weaker against Luna. Select points on the map are cities, allowing the player to shop for improved weapons, armor, and skills other locations offer skirmish matches not part of the main story but allowing the player to improve their characters through battle.Įach character and enemy has an affinity to one of three phases Sol, Luna and Stella, each which have strengths and weaknesses against the other phases.
