Resolving to unravel these mysteries, the boy and his new friends call on the power of Persona to do battle against the monstrous denizens of the TV world and the unknown criminal or criminals attempting to use it as a murder weapon. During downtime between battles, you hone your Persona abilities by petting cats, making models, eating beef bowls, and establishing Social Links--bonds of trust with Inaba's various residents. Gameplay is a mix of dungeon crawls with turn-based combat, and
