The game is set in the far future on the extraterrestrial planet "Aida", contaminated with a mysterious but potent radioactive energy called Omnium after a cataclysm that nearly wiped out human civilization and mutated the ecology of the planet. The player plays a wanderer that explores the world and fights mutant creatures and hostile forces as they advance through the story. Tower of Fantasy is a 3D "shared world" action role-playing game played with a 3rd-person view. The player controls a customizable character avatar who interacts with non-player characters and other entities and collects items as they travel around in the open virtual world. As the player character interacts with the world and the story, they earn experience points which increases their level and improves their combat stats. The player fights enemies with various equippable weapons through a hack-and-slash combat system where the player character swaps between weapons to access their unique attacks and abilities. Each weapon has a basic and a charged attack, and jumping into the air enables stamina-consuming aerial attacks and a plunging attack form. Timing a dodge just before an enemy attack lands activates 'phantasia' mode that freezes time and all enemies within a certain radius for a few seconds as well as fully charges the player's alternate weapons, giving the player a window of time to deal massive damage while their enemies are immobilised. There are different types of weapons and each weapon also has one of 3 roles and various stats that affect how they work in the game. In addition to having high upgrade potential Simulacrum can be activated to transform the player character into the Simulacrum character and gain access to their unique Traits. Upgrading these Simulacra also unlocks content that allows the player to learn about the characters within the Simulacra. As a "shared world" RPG, players on the same server co-exist with and can encounter other players in the same instance of the game world. Tower of Fantasy supports co-op play where up to 4 players on the same server can team up to play together to explore the world, complete general or multiplayer-specific missions, or fight world bosses, and PvP where players can challenge each other to duels in open-world combat, or fight in an arena mode called Apex League to advance up a leaderboard to obtain special rewards. In 2316 humanity discovered the habitable extraterrestrial planet Aida and, faced with dwindling resources and a collapsing environment on Earth, sent a colony spacecraft on a more than 200 year interstellar journey to establish a human colony on the planet. To capture the comet and harness this energy the Tower of Fantasy is built, but just 5 years after its completion an explosion of Omnium energy irradiates Aida and devastates human civilization on the planet.
