- Chap and his friends do appear in the game
- if you scan Jaras and the Snacks via the NFC reader, you can get miniature weapon toys, as well as plates with monsters/characters sealed inside
- alternate between two phases: spending time at your base and tackling dungeons
- use your time in your base to prepare your equipment and pack up what you need for dungeon exploration
- explore dungeons in order to find the treasure that lies deep inside
- when battling, the weapon you choose is important, as certain enemies are weak against certain weapons
- dungeons are randomly generated, but will have treasure and a big boss in them
- dungeon examples include a canyon, a forest and a spooky temple
- one of the bosses found in the desert is Kraken, a giant with palm trees on its head
- another dungeon is the Heavy Temple, guarded by Medusa, who turned some of the prior heroes into stone with her gaze

- other monsters include Penguin Knight, Mimic, Merman and Kurone
- Snacks and Jaras are two key items from the world, and both will see release as physical NFC toys
- Jaras are miniature weapon toys that you scan tap in order to make the in-game equivalent spawn in-game
- you can carry up to 6 of them, and you’re free to choose which ones
- Snacks are plates with monsters/characters inside, and if you scan them in-game, you can summon the monster/character
- sometimes you can scan a Jara to unlock a special quest, which will lead you to a power-up for your weapon
- when scanning a Snack, you can unlock a special quest involving Butako, in order to get Chap’s bandana
- items that appear in-game vary depending on the toy scanned,
- toy brands include Britannia Enchant: pretty high-class, Peffany: a girly brand, Clanarine: for classy (and wealthy) adventurers, Fairy Electronics: for fans of high-tech equipment
