This unusual adventure sees you take on a whole heap of challenges, including firing yourself out like a human pinball and putting on a fast and furious show, using movement modules and reflections in a mirror maze to fix the SoulGlad transport passage, transforming into a miniature version of Brother Hanu as you break through multiple locks and puzzles to obtain the prison key, then reuniting with your scattered cellmates in the confusing Dreamscape with your Dreamwalking ability.
After all this, you must engage in one final battle to earn your freedom – and to earn a whole heap of goodies, of course! Rewards include stellar jades, level-up materials, mora, and a choice of one of the following four-star characters:
