Ma-suru Joshou

Ma-suru Joshou is the opening chapter of a story RPG series that builds the creation of mathematical expressions into several of its systems. The game follows Mariel, a girl travelling to her first town, Solis, and takes about an hour and a half to complete.

Gameplay

The game combines turn-based battles using puzzles where you form simple mathematical expressions, a map screen for choosing a general direction of travel, first-person movement along routes, and visual-novel-style story scenes. Its progression follows a single linear path.

Mariel's journey

In the first half, Mariel travels across the map and fights monsters as she makes her way to Solis. After she arrives, she meets a boy named Tyler. The second half focuses entirely on the story of how they begin living together.
