The rule
Crystal Point (CP)
This is money in this game which is used to buy Friend Magic Stone, Attack Magic Stone and Land, and for level up land.
Land (土地)
When character stop on rival's land, the same amount of CP as land's value is paid to the owner. Land can be increased capitalization by paying CP, its value and level rise. Land composes the area together with being to be near, and they in the same area share common shape, for example, square, triangle and circle. The maximum level depends on the number of land in the same area. When all the land in the same area is monopolized, the maximum level becomes the maximum ten.
Friend Magic Stone (友達魔石)
The land is taken up by arranging this. This has Friend rate and Ability respectively. Friend rate amplifies land's value. Ability gives various effects to owner, rivals and ownself. List of important Friend Magic Stone in this run is shown below.
| 名前 | Name | Price | Rate | Ability | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ドル君 | Doru-kun | 40 | 10% | Awakes for 3-turns when it is increased the capital, and its rate rise 20%. | Its price is the lowest and rate when awaking is high. |
| 黒魔道士 | Black magician | 200 | 22% | Rate rises when adjacent and arranged. | It has high rate thanks to ability. |
| オーガ | Orge | 100 | 16% | Transfers the coming character somewhere in the same area. And, it can go arbitrary direction at the next turn. Maybe, ability's success rate is about 10%. | This is the most important in this run. It is almost unuseful in normal play. But, while it is TAS... I beat 1st level twice to get this. |
