Finish the in-game tutorial
From the title screen open the ritual and complete the onboarding that teaches drag-and-drop, attack order, and candles. The getting started guide restates those rules with extra shop advice.

Learn the nine cells
Cell numbers are attack order, not decoration. Front columns hit first. Read grid and positioning before you stack on-death units in the back.

Spend Essence on purpose
Unused Essence disappears at the end of preparation. Use shop, Distill, and merge to decide when to Draw Again versus locking a level-up.

Protect your candles
Each lost fight snuffs a candle. The candles and Curses page covers when to concede a shop and when to greed.

Honorable victories unlock Codex entries. Follow the ranks walkthrough and compare your board to the unit tier list.
FAQ
Wiki FAQ
Quick answers for the current ritual.
Where should a new player start?
Read the getting started guide, then grid and positioning. After one collapse, check the unit tier list.
Is Order Automatica out yet?
Yes. It launched on 4 September 2026 for PC (Steam and GOG), PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, iOS, and Android. See platforms for stores and system notes.
Does the game have multiplayer?
No. Order Automatica is single-player only. You fight an opposing ritual grid that plays by the same rules, but there is no second human player.
Which languages are supported?
The game ships English, Simplified Chinese, Polish, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This wiki covers English, Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese. Legal pages stay in English.
How do battles actually work?
You only act in preparation. After you press End Preparation, units attack in cell-number order and fire their abilities automatically. Details are in the grid guide.
Is this an official wiki?
No. It is a fan resource. Confirm patches, prices, and store links on Steam, the publisher channels, or the in-game Codex.
Is Order Automatica worth $5.99?
If you like short 3x3 autobattler puzzles, yes. If you want cooperative play or a live-service roster, no. The launch review spells out the cliff after Initiate and who should skip it.
