fashion. Players accumulate experience by defeating monsters and characters become stronger as they level up. If they leave the dungeon, the characters are reduced back to level 1, and all items are lost when the health bar reaches zero.
Thus, missions must be completed all in one go.
The goal of the game is to search for and obtain the "Holy Grail of Beauty", whilst defeating monsters and avoiding traps through utilizing items, armor, and weapons.
When entering a dungeon, players can either choose another computer-controlled
character to act as their partner and enter with them, or go in alone. Although partnering up has tactical advantages in battle, it is also more risky, as the partner's items are also lost when the team gets defeated.
Through defeating monsters in the dungeon, players accumulate Omega Power in addition to experience points; this increases Aina's chest size. This is accompanied by an increase in stats and if Aina reaches maximum Omega Power she enters "Hatsumune Mode", greatly powering up her status. When leaving the dungeon, Aina's chest returns to its normal size, though accumulated Omega Power can be used to purchase items.
Items obtained in dungeons are initially unidentified, with their name and effects not known. They need to be revealed using Omega Power, with an animated sequence where the player places said item between a characters breasts and shaking achieving this.
Any character can be selected for this sequence, allowing players to choose their favorite. Players who do not wish to go through the scene may choose to skip it entirely.
Players can also choose to strengthen their characters through the system, which is triggered by special dungeon items; this leads to one of the girl characters going into an "excited" state. Touching her during this time allows Omega Power and status increases, and are unique to each character.
In dungeons, players can also find panties and bras, which can be equipped to increase the defense of the characters, along with weapons and shields. Combinations of these can also trigger special effects.
Various categories of weapons are obtained through dungeon exploration, this includes swords, lances, axes, sickles, and
