In battle, you can choose moves other than attack.

Turn-based combat includes attack, observation, resonance, and escape. The option to influence enemies with empathy is also officially guided.

Manage abilities and petrification level

When growing, abilities will be allocated to strength, agility, and will. Decide on exploration and battle actions while checking not only your physical strength but also your petrification level.
