04-19 Patch Notes

In order to create a more relaxing gaming experience for players not very familiar with SLG or SRPG, we’ve made some new adjustments to the “Casual” mode of the game:

1. Added “Casual²” mode: After selecting “Casual” mode when starting a new game, players will have the option to enable “Casual²” mode. When this mode is selected, players will gain additional healing items “Pill” in every mission. And in battles, allied units will be healed 50% of their Max HP at the start of each turn (excluding certain special missions). Players already started the game can also switch to “Casual²” mode through “Menu - Select Difficulty”.

3. Chapter 2, Act 9: Hunting Game: After finishing the objectives in the first phase, during the cutscene all deployed Equipment-type Items will be returned to the backpack. Prior to the update, enemies discovering Equipment-type Items could cause errors in the cutscene played after.
