Gameplay Features

The moment an enemy is slain, an indigo “Wonder Dimension” will spread across the field.
As the dimension expands, your abilities will grow stronger and the action will speed up.
Your acquired skills determine how quickly the dimension expands and the way in which your abilities are enhanced, changing the way you approach battles.

Poker System
Collect 5 skill cards to form poker-style hands.
Stronger combinations result in stronger effects, changing the course of the battle with different attacks and tactics.
What cards do you hold onto? What hands will you aim for? Your choices will determine victory or defeat.

Repentance System
Confess the sins you have shouldered in your death battles and transform them into power.
Alice will take on the sins of the wayward souls she defeats along the way.
The tears of penitence will become power-up items for you to use.

Powering Up
Use the materials you obtain through repentance to make your weapons and accessories more powerful.
Even if you are thrown back in time and lose your cards, you can keep some progress through this.
Next time, aim to go deeper; go farther.
