Gameplay

Main articles: Gameplay, Strategy, Spell Cards, Ability Cards, and Achievements

100th Black Market consists of several self-contained stages that the player can play through individually. Each stage consists of several enemy waves and boss encounters selected semi-randomly, broken up by card shop menus where the player can purchase more equipment and abilities in the form of Ability Cards (previously featured in Unconnected Marketeers). While a single playthrough is short, repeated playthroughs to acquire more cards and experiment with different strategies are highly encouraged.

Story

Main articles: Translation and Characters

Despite Chimata Tenkyuu's assertion that her Ability Cards would fall out of fashion after the events of Unconnected Marketeers, the cards' value is still somehow climbing further and further. Marisa Kirisame sets out to investigate the "black markets" that are trading in cards without Chimata's oversight — and to collect as many cards as she can for herself.
