You take control of a fighter who must battle through waves of monster girl enemies across a variety of environments. By using upgrade cards, you can strengthen different aspects of your character over time—steadily boosting your overall combat power.

The game includes three difficulty settings so you can pick the challenge level that fits you best. Plus, when you defeat different monster girl opponents, you unlock exclusive bonus interactive story segments. These extras can be stored in the Inn’s Gallery, letting you revisit them anytime.
