Tower of Slumber:Gameplay Loop

Gameplay flow.

The Gameplay Loop in ^Pachinko CR Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer: Princess Suzune and the Tower of Slumber has players fire Pachinko balls, with the aim of balls making it to the bottom, center-most slot, which will queue up a slot spin. Slot spins are generally represented by a Mamel Head icon , though various others exist. When two of the same numbers roll on the right and left sides, a Reach event will play. During a Reach event, Shiren the Wanderer (and occasionally Asuka) may face off against a monster from the series. Though Reach events aren't limited to just monster fights, with other variations exist as well.

When all three numbers match up, it's called a WANDERER RUSH!. During WANDERER RUSH!, the game will go into the High Speed - Daydream Mode, Battle - Dream State Mode, and Breakout - Nightmare mode. If Shiren makes it through the collapsing tower, he'll face off against Baku. If Shiren loses to Baku, he'll have to go back and repeat the Breakout - Nightmare mode.

During gameplay, there are several peaceful background images with different aspects of animation, and leaves or petals floating across the screen. When facing off against bosses, the background setting will turn to the dark and dreary Tower of Slumber. Fights against monsters generally have their own pre-rendered videos in distinct locations.
