The story revolves around guiding soldiers across a treacherous battlefield to reach the opposite side or eliminate all enemies. Each soldier has a unique skill set out of 20 types, allowing for diverse combat approaches. Soldiers can utilize either standard or specialized arms to attack, with certain weapons excelling against specific foes and obstacles.
Gameplay focuses on strategic decision-making, as players must choose the best-suited soldier for each scenario. With an initial army consisting of three soldiers, players can rescue additional troops by touching them in the game world. If these rescued soldiers survive long enough to reach the exit, they can be added to the player's inventory. The total number of possible soldiers surpasses 30, with a total of 50 stages spread across rounds of 10.
