Exploring Painting Worlds
Players venture into various painting worlds to collect ingredients and defeat monsters. These worlds are accessed by interacting with the mysterious painting and serve as the primary locations for alchemy material gathering.
Scattered across these worlds are “Nelke’s world” painting fragments. Collecting fragments expands the range of accessible painting worlds and ties into the new content from the Nelke series.

- Disable it for boss encounters to monitor health and status effects closely.

Photo Mode
A dedicated Photo Mode lets players capture images of characters, environments, and alchemy results. The mode provides basic framing tools and can be accessed from the pause menu.
Captured images can be saved locally, offering a way to document favorite scenes or share artwork created within the painting worlds.

- Use the framing grid to align characters for cleaner composition.

Requests often require specific ingredients gathered from painting worlds, linking exploration directly to rank advancement.
