The game features intense tactical combat and you need to form the best lineups and formations to beat the enemies.
Gameplay
The game features cutscenes from the original anime but you have the option to skip it if you don’t have time for that.
The battle is turn based, and you need to tap on your character’s Avatar to release a normal attack or a Mastery Skill. Before you tap, you can choose a target by clicking on the enemy before tapping the you character’s avatar.
Time your normal attack / mastery skill for a damage bonus. Meaning, you can tap the screen just as the bar moves over the yellow dot for 1.2x damage bonus while you another character is on the process of attacking the enemies.
Dealing and receiving damage both generate Rage. When Rage is full, you can unleash a Rage Skill.
For example, Ichigo’s Rage Skill deals damage to a column of enemies while Orihime’s can heal her allies.
