The story takes place in the near future. The world that humans live in is called the Normal Side (the real world), and the world where the erosion enemies live is the Counter Side (Outside world).

The combat gameplay is strategic tower defense. Players need to organize characters into a fleet of 1 ship and 8 members to confront the enemies.

There are four types of occupations including "Guard", "Vanguard", "Assault" and "Sniper" that restrain each other.

(Old review) Well, well. I wasn't thinking of adding review to a different server since I already have one for Sea. But due to how different it is now, i kinda have to. If you're on Sea region, this is the only way I know to access this version. But is it worth it? If you like free stuff then now is the time to try it out. Free selectors, 1 purple rare skin, event with free selectors and random ticket. code for awakened selector (not sure if it expires or not): CS1UTDKGJ08INT If you're new then: Game mechanic is you deploy units on a 2d fighting style space and they move towards the other end, doing auto attacks and skill while you can manual or auto ult. End goal is usually to destroy the enemy flagship while defending your own. Global Pros and cons Pros: Free stuff for now. Remember that it's only for a limited amount of time. Rearm skill lvling doesn't need specific fragments. But you still need rarity fragments to rearm. Higher chance of having collab than Sea, even though the last one isn't too great. Gives more codes than Sea Cons: Had to lower the gameplay and graphics since the old one is better. At least for me. The UI is fine for me but the hp color being white bar isn't. lf it's for colorblind then add that mode instead. Qnd whitebar is suppose to be shield. Now it's just a lighter whitebar. they remove units receiving exp on stages. Which means the only way to lvl now is by using exp tickets. That's going to be alot if you want to reach 110. they seem to remove dive skip. Not great when you already know that a dive stage is a sure win. Kinda ridiculous change in shadow palace. Needing 3 full different teams altogether. constellation like mechanic and I'm not fond of it, you kinda need 5-6 dupes. It also lacks the QoL of selecting units that has dupes. Seems a good amount of players aren't happy with some of the cons here and more. The devs already put their stance and seem to be finding a way to resolve some of the issue. I just hope that they are. It's a shame if they lose more playerbase just after the rebrand.

Great game with amazing character and storyline, really easy to get great character from gacha considering how generous they are. Tho i must say the global version have been very hit on miss on the bug and connection issues, some had a really bad disconnection problem while some having just some minor issues like raid loading slowly. Also just to add to the fact that the global version of the game look pretty rushed, i enjoyed the game as of now but I don't know how long i would stay in this server if they decided to mess up the game balance. But overall game is great have some interesting waifu, and great storyline (atleast for me) so you should atleast check it out and see for yourself if you enjoy the game or not. tldr; great game but rushed content and lots of bug on release
