Previously, the personifications of the astrological signs alternated in controlling the Milky Way. Virgo objects when each is given their own portion of the galaxy to permanently rule, and she attempts to usurp control of the other regions. It is a role-playing game with turn-based combat. All combats are During combat, up to three combatants can fight on each side, and each character has two health bars. The second bar, called purity, provides additional health and can be increased by defensive abilities. Offensive abilities decrease it. If attacked characters have purity points, they can use them to make a counterattack using a special skill.[2]
Instead of skill trees, character gain skills through equipment. There are also real-time shoot 'em up sequences and quick time events that apply bonuses during combat. Players can adjust how difficult these quick time challenges are. Combats can be redone at will, but the only way to change equipment or the difficulty level is to load a saved game. It features pixel art graphics.[2] While exploring, players can interact with non-player characters and choose dialogue options based on personality traits related to astrological signs. These choices affect how the game progresses.[3]
