the gameplay is somewhat similar to the gameplay found in "phantom brave" and "", other games created by nippon ichi. the characters summoned in battle have freedom to move within a circle set by the characters' movement points. victory is achieved by scoring a set number of points, which are given by interacting with items on the map, discovering extension maps, and eliminating enemies. several of the classes from "disgaea: hour of darkness" exist in this game as well, such as warrior and mage, but some of the equivalents of previous classes are different. some classes also have distinctions between sexes.
