01 / THE GUIDE
Story
Ryoma discovers he is the Prisma, the sole savior capable of preventing the destruction of both worlds. His quest leads him to locate other candidates drawn from the real world and to awaken them through a kiss, advancing the narrative toward averting the apocalypse.
Each awakened companion becomes a Prisma Knight, sharing Ryoma’s destiny. The kiss mechanic is presented as the exclusive means to unlock their powers, making it a central plot device throughout the game.
- Pay attention to dialogue cues that hint at characters eligible to become Prisma Knights.
- Keep a simple list of awakened companions to avoid repeated attempts on the same character.

World
Amazia blends iconic Tokyo districts such as Shibuya and Akihabara with fantastical elements, creating a visually striking hybrid city. The artwork by tokyogenso portrays this environment as both beautiful and decadent, reinforcing the world’s doomed fate.
The fused setting influences dungeon design and encounter aesthetics, providing a backdrop where familiar landmarks coexist with otherworldly structures, reinforcing the narrative’s sense of a reality on the brink of ruin.
- Explore the transformed districts, whose layouts differ from their real‑world counterparts.
- Notice visual cues that signal a transition between ordinary and otherworldly areas.

Dungeon Exploration
Across Amazia’s districts lie labyrinthine dungeons that feature monster battles, environmental gimmicks, treasure chests, and material gathering. These areas encourage navigation of puzzles while collecting items for later use.
Progression is measured by reaching deeper sections of each labyrinth, with the goal of pushing toward the deepest reaches of each one, motivating players to strengthen their party and equipment.
- Map each dungeon level as you go to avoid unnecessary backtracking.
- Gather materials early; they become valuable for later equipment refinement.

Turn‑Based Battle System
Combat uses a turn‑based command system where up to four characters can act each turn. Players select skills and consider enemy traits to craft tactical strategies, while party formation influences the flow of battle.
The protagonist, as Prisma, absorbs EXS from defeated enemies and can share it with companions through a kiss, releasing powerful special attacks called EXS Arts.
- Experiment with different party formations to see how skill combinations affect enemy weaknesses.
- Use the kiss mechanic strategically to trigger EXS Arts when they can turn the tide of battle.
05 / THE GUIDE
Party Formation & Affection
A party can consist of up to four active members, with additional companions waiting in reserve. The composition influences battle outcomes, especially when considering each character’s position and skill set.
Relationships with companions can affect combat performance, encouraging players to deepen bonds with a variety of Prisma Knights rather than focusing on a single favorite.
- Rotate reserve members to keep affection levels balanced across the team.
- Observe any combat bonuses that appear after interacting with a companion.
