Nana Eiyū Monogatari II is not directly connected to its predecessor story-wise, but has a nearly identical gameplay system: the game consists out of a series of tactical battles, with characters leveling up in a RPG fashion after a set number of attacks. Like in the previous game, the system is very simple, without inventory, equipment, or multiple attacks available. The sequel has more battles and more diverse goals, which often involve more than simply eliminating all the enemies and require the player to protect children from being harmed, rescue innocent people, pursue fleeing enemies, etc.
