Early Game Content

Main Campaign

Main Campaign

 

The “Main Campaign” is the first content you unlock in Nikke, and the most important. During the Main Campaign, you will explore different locations, and you will move your squad on the map. During the Main Campaign you can find a random spot with a magnifier icon, if you press it you can unlock special rewards. Completing Main Campaign stages rewards you with Credit (game money), Battle Data Set (Nikke Exp Items) and sometimes Core Dust (Necessary for Nikke Leveling) and piece of Equipment for your characters  etc. Once you complete a Chapter, you will unlock the next one and also the Hard Mode later on. Before entering a new Stage on Main Campaign, you should check the requirements:

 

Stage Element Advantage

  • In the Right-Up part of the stage selection, you will see the Weak Point of enemies. Picking Nikke with this Element let you deal more damage to your enemies

 

Effective Range of Weapons

  • Similar to Element, picking up Nikke with Effective Range of Weapons advantage let you fight enemies more easy, increasing your damage

 

According to the info of every stage, you can change your squad member and increase the efficiency of your squad during battles.

 

Simulation Room

Simulation Room

 

The “Simulation Room” is the first side content you unlock in Nikke. This game mode lets you challenge a “simulated” zone of monsters where your squad can’t recover HP between each fight. At the start of each Simulation Room you must select a difficulty (from 1 to 5, based on your Main Campaign Progress) and a sector (A B or C). Each sector in the Simulation Room consists of many stages. For each stage you must select an event. Different event can happen in Simulation Room, some of those includes:

 

  • Battle = Fight enemies for complete the stage (Normal, Hard and Boss) and obtain Buffs

 

  • Commanding Ability Test = Choose different effect that modify your squad and the buff you obtain

 

  • ICU = You can recovery HP or Resurrect fallen Nikke

 

After clearing a sector you can choose to claim your rewards or move to the next sector. Another important aspect of Simulation Room is the Buff and Buff Chain. Everytime you complete a battle you can choose a buff for your Squad, and choosing the same kind of buff starts a Chain Buff Reaction. The more buffs of the same chain you get, the better the power of those buffs (from 3 buff to 8 buff chain of the same type). The Simulation Room reset daily so remember to clear it everyday to improve your Nikke Combat Power.
