Shin Megami Tensei V is a role-playing video game in which the player controls the Nahobino, a fusion of human and demon who explores the post-apocalyptic realm of Da'at. Da'at is fully explorable and divided into open areas with different environmental themes and enemies.[2][3] In Da'at, the Nahobino can run around as normal, dash at great speed, jump, and slash at objects or enemies with the Nahobino's sword.[4] The Nahobino can find friendly non-playable characters (NPCs) who have dialogue and can provide quests, hidden beings called Miman which grant an upgrade currency called Glory, and small orbs which restore health (HP), magic (MP), and the special Magatsuhi gauge. In some areas, a companion character will lead the Nahobino to items and treasure.[2][3][5] Completing quests rewards experience points which raise character levels, and the in-game currency Macca.[6] Some areas are blocked off by Demon Abscesses, growths with demon mobs which must be destroyed to progress.[2][7]
