Similar to Capcom's previous iOS Monster Hunter (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/05/18/capcom-unleashing-monster-hunter-dynamic-hunting-on-ios-devices/), you fight giant beasts using touch controls, including "tap and flick" gestures. Players can also pick up materials to make new equipment, and use a "friend hunting" system, which adds a currently undefined social element. Presumably it doesn't involve hunting and killing your real life friends.
