Gameplay
Demon extermination makes the bulk of the game. These missions are listed under a location's name and requires an allotted number of the protagonist's Energy to initiate. An avatar's maximum energy capacity is determined by their level, and levels are boosted through experience points. One energy can be restored by waiting every five minutes or by using items. Additional hunting areas can be unlocked by clearing each location's mission list. Brief narrative segments are included before and after major missions.
After the player finishes the first chapter, they unlock the training function in the main menu. For a minimal energy fee, these mock battles grant experience and haku for completion. Rewards are based on whatever rating the player receives while competing their kill count and accuracy against other players. Each training facility can be leveled up to unlock harder sessions. Secondary rewards can be earned by developing the training arena.
Player avatars are required to create a deck of Mitama before starting their missions. Rarity for each soul is indicated by the number of stars located above their portrait (six stars being the current highest rank). Each soul has Attack, Health, and Speed properties. The traits of their secondary battle abilities are determined by one of the three designated types:
- Slay (斬) - Offensive. Decent speed. Moderate skill cost. Strong against Vacuum demons.
- Smash (砕) - Defensive and restorative focus. Sluggish. High skill cost. Best against Slay demons.
- Vacuum (空) - Strategic. Fast. Low skill cost. Effective against Smash demons.
Mitama can initiate either ability based on the speediness of the player's actions in battle (ハヤフリ, hayafuri) or by choice (タマフリ, tamafuri). The second option drains the player avatar's spirit gauge, which can only be built be achieving a chain of correct answers. Tap on a Mitama's portrait to trigger once the spirit cost has been met.
Combat is generally a set of turn-based quizzes. Character order is decided by each participant's Speed stat. The player can act only if the player still has health; if their health drops to 0, they are out for this encounter.
Once it is a Mitama's turn the player must tap a specific genre (sports, history, cuisine, etc.) for their trivia question. The correct answer is concealed within four possible options; the player has twenty or fifteen seconds for each question. Right answers leads to the Mitama attacking; providing the proper solution within one or two seconds additionally activates a Mitama's hayafuri ability before their turn ends. Wrong selections or selecting nothing negates the player's turn. Each question has a difficulty rating.
Players are encouraged to solve every question correctly. Doing so will eventually unleash their team's powerful group attack (ムスヒノ刻, musuhi no koku). Activate it by pressing the orange circular icon on the screen. Once it is in effect, tap true (O) or false (X) to the provided questions. The player is allowed two faults before the attack runs its course; no damage will be dealt if the player fails to answer any inquiry correctly. This attack is useful against giant demons who have large health bars at the top of the battle screen. Giant demons tend to have armor coating which must be worn down with a chain of correct answers in order for normal attacks to take effect.
Experience points for the player avatar, haku, and other Mitama are rewarded to victorious player teams. Special bonuses are rewarded for 100% accuracy finishes. Like its base title, haku is required for strengthening Mitama. Quiz Battle requires the player to sacrifice reserve Mitama and limits the maximum level for each Mitama based on its rarity. Secondary nameless warrior cards are needed for awakening a card to its next level cap. Each time a card is upgraded, its visual experiences minor aesthetic changes. The number of changes available depends on the card's default rarity.
Digital currency can be paid to purchase treasure orbs. These orbs can by used for the gacha roulettes for new Mitama, increasing Mitama storage space, and granting an instant retry during failed quizzes. Players who call upon another player for assistance is rewarded 10 friend points for each completed stage. 200 friend points are required to draw from the free gacha.
