The player explores an overhead world map, towns, buildings, caves, and other dungeons. Random encounters begin turn-based battles in which party members use weapons, armor, spells, special abilities, or items.

The main objective is to gather the scattered Magi and advance the story across several worlds. Humans improve through equipment and item use, mutants gain abilities unpredictably, monsters change by eating meat, and robots benefit from equipment. Party composition, limited inventory space, weapon durability, and resource management are central to progression.

Keep a balanced party and carry several weapon types, since weapons have limited uses and different enemies resist different attacks. Save durable or high-damage options for difficult encounters rather than spending them on every random battle.

Check new equipment carefully, especially for mutants and robots. Monsters should eat meat deliberately because the result can change their form, while mutants benefit from frequent battle participation and a varied set of usable abilities.
