- the core of the game is solid and serious, but still maintains the regular SteamWorld humor
- use cards to earn gear
- you have the ability to redraw cards
- level up your characters and explore various areas
- Quest plays out somewhat like a play, with one full screen of gameplay acting as a 'scene'
- the focus is on the gameplay itself, and not exploration
- gain experience at the end of each battle
- create your own deck of cards
- the main character pretends that she is a hero, but she actually isn't
- her goal is to see if she can become a hero
- the main character speaks in “quotes” and narrates her adventure
