** An Artifact chooses their Wielder, letting the latter gain power from it. Since each Artifact is unique, no Wielder's power is the same as each other.
** Artifacts can change the physiology of their Wielders without their consent to suit the Artifact's power, if not theme.
** According to Hiro, Artifacts originate from the Dimension, presumably transported from it through Black Gates, hence the meteoric rise in Wielders during the Black Gate Event. Any information about their origins beyond that is unknown at the moment.

[[spoiler:What makes Thauma foreign is that it comes from the Dimension, which itself is full of the stuff, and when a Wielder uses more of their powers (or stay in the Dimension too long), this increases the amount of Thauma they carry, creating an imbalance of Thauma and Anima through an overflow of the former, and ultimately Mortifying into a Monster.

The Southeast Asia (SEA) version that released in the English language went under the name ''Eternal City'', however its servers went defunct as of June 30, 2020. Currently, it has a Japanese-only re-release as an auto-battler idle game.
The game takes place on a world similar to Earth when an incident that would come to be known as the "Black Gate Event" endangered the entire world where monsters of the unknown, alien Dimension invaded through space-tearing Black Gates. They terrorized the people until they were pushed back to the Gates' point of origin by the combined forces of countries around the world, and people who suddenly gained powers after coming into contact with strange items--Artifacts--from the Dimension, later termed "Artifact Wielders". Once the threat was suppressed, it was at that conjunction between the world and the Dimension where the city of Confluence was established, led by the Central Department that took up the responsibility of managing Wielders and stemming the flow of monsters still coming through the Black Gates.

The main parts of gameplay, most often for main story progression, are divided into two segments:
* VisualNovel, in which you go about the city liberating zones to progress the current cycle, or in the case of 'routes', complete objectives related to the one you are on. Each action (used for district liberations and patrols) requires 10 Action Points; you have a maximum of 240 AP, which restores at a natural rate of 24 hours, though you extra AP can be converted into clocks that can be saved for later game sessions. As for the actual Visual Novel parts, a majority of the story is read this way, at times with {{Dialogue Tree}}s you can choose from--it must be noted that many of such choices have a major impact on the ending you want to pursue, so choose carefully.
* HackAndSlash, where you pick a team of three Wielders and battle enemies in instanced stages. Every Wielder has a basic attack and three skills, two of which are Active Skills and one being an Ultimate. You control a single Wielder at a time while your other two teammates automatically fight and follow you; you can switch over to one of them, but doing so consumes one of three charges you cannot refill, though it will restore half the maximum health of the Wielder you switch to and reset any skills on cooldown. Moreover, AI teammates will not use their Ultimates unless you give the say-so. Monster enemies often come in hordes or as singular bosses, though you may fight hostile Wielders as well.

Currently, it has a Japanese-only re-release as an auto-battler idle game.

Kachigo is the first to go, and the first of every Wielder you have to put down once they turn. And even if there weren't Mortified Wielders, they'll eventually die without the Dimension supplying Thauma. By the end, there is no Wielder left alive.]]
*** ''Termination'': If you fail to defeat [[spoiler:Hiro]] at the final battle, [[spoiler:the madman gleefully opens the Black Gate, letting hordes of Monsters pour through to destroy the world. All hope is lost... until a giant-sized version of the mysterious girl breaks the sky itself.]]

* {{Mana}}: Thauma is a foreign energy Wielders manipulate that lets them perform inhuman feats and magical effects, which remains in the human body alongside Anima, the energy that 'represents' their human side. [[spoiler:What makes Thauma foreign is that it comes from the Dimension, which itself is full of the stuff, and when a Wielder uses more of their powers (or stay in the Dimension too long), this increases the amount of Thauma they carry, creating an imbalance of Thauma and Anima through an overflow of the former, and ultimately Mortifying into a Monster. Conversely, if a Wielder has low or no Thauma, they die from a lack of it. Preventing this imbalance is what Commanders are really there for--[[CastFromLifespan by using their life force]].]]

'''NOTE:''' ''Eternal City'''s Chinese servers were active before others, and thus have released more story and gameplay elements compared to the now defunct SEA version. English names up to the SEA version's last update will be used, with the future Chinese content used and translated as best as possible for English-reading audiences. As such, there will be spoilers aplenty, marked and unmarked.

The game takes place on a world similar to Earth when an incident that would come to be known as the "Black Gate Event" endangered the entire world where monsters of the unknown, alien Dimension invaded through space-tearing Black Gates. They terrorized the people until they were pushed back to the Gates' point of origin by the combined forces of countries around the world, and "Relic Wielders", people who suddenly gained powers after coming into contact with strange items from the Dimension. Once the threat was suppressed, it was there the city of Confluence was established, led by the Central Department that took up the responsibility of managing Wielders and stemming the flow of monsters still coming through the Black Gates.

* ArtifactOfPower: Artifacts, which are how their wielders gain power and thus named as Artifact Wielders. The main points about them can be condensed into these bullet points:
** Anyone who comes into contact with Artifacts gain power from it. Since each Artifact is unique, no Wielder's power is the same as each other.
** Artifacts can change the physiology of their Wielders without their consent to suit the Artifact's power, if not theme.
** According to Hiro in the ''Steps Toward the Abyss'' route, Artifacts are unknown items that originate from the Dimension, presumably transported from it through Black Gates, hence the sudden appearance of Wielders during the Black Gate Event. Any information about their origins beyond that is unknown at the moment.
** It is possible for a non-biological or non-living being/creation to gain sentience from being given an Artifact. Leos is a robot empowered by one, and so is [[spoiler:No. 1000]].

*** Tanks have a large amount of health and can DrawAggro from enemies, taking heat off their teammates.
*** Assassins have low health but high damage, often boasting stealth and warp skills.

Currently, it has a Japanese-only re-release as an auto-battler idle game.
The game takes place on a world similar to Earth when an incident that would come to be known as the "Black Gate Event" endangered the entire world where monsters of the unknown, alien Dimension invaded through space-tearing Black Gates. They terrorized the people until they were pushed back to the Gates' point of origin by the combined forces of countries around the world, and "Relic Wielders", people who suddenly gained powers after coming into contact with strange items from the Dimension. Once the threat was suppressed, it was there the city of Confluence was established, led by the Central Department that took up the responsibility of managing Wielders and stemming the flow of monsters still coming through the Black Gates.
Six months later, Confluence is in the middle of a city-wide battle between the monsters and the Wielders, with you as a "Commander" directing a time-manipulating Wielder named Ann to seal a massive Black Gate, only for it to engulf the entire city along with yourself...

And then you wake up to Ann, who doesn't recognize you, and another woman, Antoneva, watching over you, while you cry all of a sudden, find yourself with no memory, and with only a mysterious Tactical Terminal by your side.
It is explained then that you are a newly inducted Commander of the Central Department--a job with only one other person qualifying besides yourself--responsible for directing your Wielders and with the ability to supply them with extra energy to boost their powers. You are then tasked with sealing the Black Gates appearing throughout the city with your Wielders... all while a huge number '7' floats high above the city that only you can see, which ticks down with every day that passes...
Not to be confused with the other similarly titled game ''VideoGame/TheEternalCity''.
