▲ Tactical scenes (turn-based tactics are used to move units and capture the enemy.)
The battle takes place from a side-view angle, just as in the side-scrolling shooter game "R-Type".
▲ Unit battle scenes
(Left) A formation of Rwf-9A ARROW HEAD, the mainstay fighters of the Space Corps, firing anti-aircraft lasers over the Earth. When equipped with the Force, laser weapons can be used.
(Right) A scene where a formation of Bwf-1Dα Bydo System α fired a large number of eyeball missiles. Missile weapons are not easily affected by spatial conditions, and their power is not attenuated by distance traveled.
How and when to use optical weapons, such as lasers, and missile weapons is also a crucial strategy in this game.
▲ Logbook
The story progresses through the protagonist's logbook as an intermission in this game.
Options in the logbook allow the player to reflect the protagonist's opinions and commands in the log.
