Zephy is an imperial knight tasked with hunting witches. After a dragon nearly kills him, two witches save him with dragon blood, giving him new powers and linking his fate to theirs. He joins them as they face dragon hunters and seek a way to survive the curse.
Explore dungeons, trigger encounters, and fight in turn-based battles across three vertical tiers. Position party members to exploit enemy weaknesses, avoid attacks, and respond to foes that can strike across multiple tiers. Filling the Dragon Gauge lets characters transform and use dragon-powered abilities.
Weakened dragons can be devoured to unlock their skill trees, giving characters new abilities and passive bonuses that can be combined to shape the party. The witches also need dragon blood to manage their hunger: feeding them too little or too much can bring serious consequences, and choices can affect the ending.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its character-focused story and cast, along with the distinctive three-tier battles and dragon-devouring progression. Character artwork and the soundtrack also draw appreciation. Reactions to the systems are mixed: some players like the combat and customization, while others find the mechanics grindy or unbalanced.
