The biggest feature of the game is the interacting with the characters in the game and the combat against the enemy utilizing Layle's gravity-based power. And with the use of Wii controls and nunchucks, players are able to enjoy the game as they synchronize with Layle themselves.
The sales at Akiba shops were divided to "Selling well" and "It's doing OK". It seems that there is a divide in shop customer blocks that results in the sales.
