The gameplay features a limited experience typical of full-motion video games, with new mechanics introduced in chapter 7 and a return to standard abilities in chapter 8, culminating in a conclusion in chapter 9. Players engage in special interactions with the main characters, particularly four of them, throughout the chapters.
- “Then chapter 7 unveils a new mechanic and special times with each of the main girls, centering on 4 in particular. In chapter 8, you return to your normal star scout powers, and then chapter 9 concludes the experience.”

- “Then chapter 7 unveils a new mechanic and special times with each of the main girls (centering on 4 in particular), and then chapter 8 you go back to your normal star scout powers and then go into chapter 9 to conclude.”
