3. STORY
The story mode is divided in chapters, and each chapter in missions. You will unlock more chapters by going through the missions.
Inside each chapter, there is a map with locations for the missions. Inside each location there will be up to four missions, some of the main story, some substories from characters.
On each one you will see the information about the mission: the name of the mission, if it is from the Main Story or Substory (in which case will appear a photo of the character), the required Energy, the level of the enemy and the number of waves. Finally, if the mission is New, is Clear (already done) or Perfect (got a perfect). If you haven’t a perfect yet, you will see the reward for that mission. (Available rewards: Credits, Friendship Points (FP), Mineral, Cards.)
Before entering in the mission, you will see the briefing screen. Here you will see information about which enemies are you fighting by the logos shown under the mission name, the selected team and again, the amount of energy required to play the mission.

5. TEAM
Here you will be able to set up your Battle Team. You will be able to set up to four different teams, A, B, C, and D.
There is information about the total HP of the team, and the attack strength for each side. You also have a max cost. This limits the amount and rank of the characters you can use at the same time. Stronger cards have higher cost.
Try to keep your HP and attack power as high as possible without surpassing the maximum cost. Keep in mind the character skills can be of great help during the battle. A long touch or a force touch (only on devices with 3D Touch) will show you the character information.
To take out a character from the team, swipe it up. You can erase all the characters except the leader slot.
To add or change a character, tap on any slot. You will access to your character list.
If you touched a character instead of a empty slot, it will show a “Selected”. The characters on the Battle Deck will show a “On Team” banner.
Tap on any character to put it on the battle deck. If the character was already on the battle deck, both characters will swap. If you touched one empty slot and touch a character that was previously on the battle deck, the card will move to the empty slot, except if it is the leader (it is not allowed to leave the leader slot empty).
You can filter the characters by side, by attack, HP, level, cost and rank. The characters box show your current amount of characters vs the total available. If you overpass the maximum amount of characters, you won’t be allowed to play missions or draw the gacha. You can sell or upgrade characters, or buy more character slots (cost: 1 mineral).
UPGRADE
Here you will be able to upgrade all the characters but the animals (1 is their top level) and the parts cards. Tap over “Choose Character” to select the character to upgrade. Then, tap on the right empty slot to add up to 8 characters to use for the upgrade. These characters will disappear after being used for the upgrade.
Once selected, push the “Upgrade” button. You will get a warning when trying to upgrade with high ranked cards (B or upper). You can not use a protagonist (Reina, Shin or Achilles) to upgrade other characters.
If you want to upgrade a different character, touch over the first character to change it.
Upgrading cost credits. You can check if you have enough credits before doing the upgrade.
You cannot upgrade anymore if the character reach his level max. To make bigger the level max, you will need to “Rank Up” the character.
RANK UP
Ranking up will allow you to make the level max of the character bigger. You can do it twice for each character. Rank will change showing a + for the first rank up, and a ++ after the second one. It is not possible to rank up further than that.
Tap over “Choose Character” to select the character to rank up. Under the character will appear the required characters and part cards to do the Rank Up. Please note you need to have the character at his top level.
If you want to rank up a different character, touch over the first character to change it.
Ranking up cost credits. You can check if you have enough credits before doing the rank up.
SELL
Touch over an empty slot to select the characters to sell. You will be able to select up to 15 characters to sell. You will see how much credits you will receive for the characters. Press the “Sell” button to sell the characters. You won’t be able to sell any protagonist (Reina, Shin or Achilles).
6. GACHA
On the gacha section, you will be able to draw characters. The characters you receive will appear randomly based on their rank. The higher the rank, lower probabilities to appear. The probabilities are displayed inside the “+ info” section (upper button).
There are two types of gacha:
- Rare gacha: for high ranked characters (B, A and S). It cost minerals to draw: 5 minerals for 1 character, or 50 minerals to draw 10+1 characters (bundle). The bundle gacha guarantees at least 1 character of rank A or higher.
- Normal gacha: for low ranked characters (D and C). It cost FP to draw: 200 FP each character. You can earn FP on the missions, and also as a daily reward. If you have up to 2000 FP, you can draw up to 10 characters at the same time. If you have more points and you want to draw more, you will have to push the button again.
