Revision as of 08:42, 1 August 2017
KanColle Arcade is a full 3D adaptation of the KanColle Browser Flash game. Unlike how the browser version is free to play with optional payments, the arcade system requires real-world tokens to be inserted into the machine in order to play.
The arcade machine uses a SEGA Amie Card to save your profile between arcade visits allowing you to resume your game the next time you want to play KC Arcade. Guest mode is available and while you get to keep any physical character art cards that the machine spits out, your profile is deleted from the machine when you run out of GP.

Game Updates
According to the KanColle wikia, the arcade units are updated every month with new ship girls and/or features.
Starting up
Next to the arcade cabinet should be a card dispenser.
You will have to register before obtaining a card. The registration process is identical to that of the browser game: choosing an admiral name and picking a starter destroyer from the selection provided:
Once this is done, the Amie Card and the starter Kanmusu card will be dispensed. Then you'll be sent to the naval base.
What's GP and how is it used?
- Inserting physical tokens give you 300GP per token which is equivalent to five minutes of game time.
- GP is consumed every second of usage, however as shown below there are some exceptions.
- A warning sound will play at 30GP or lower.
- It can be replenished by tapping a button on the menu bar (top right of the screen) as long as there has been extra tokens inserted.
- Carrying out some actions consumes extra GP such as starting in a sortie. Some other actions cause the GP depletion to slow down or stop completely, for example, rearranging fleet cards, etc.
Arcade Unit appearance
See the Physical Unit photos page or the thumbnail to the right.
- Ise and Hyuuga are the main feature characters present on both the machine itself as well as the promotional artwork.
- Card Slot on the left where your cards are spat out. Middle of the desk contains the main control wheel, a blue button that does something and a speed dial.
- There is a touch screen interface allowing you do
lewdthings with your secretary. Tapping them usually will make them speak and move around. - Interestingly, some units have what seems to be a credit card NFC payments reader above the screen.
Cards appearance
TODO
- Some stores do sell the arcade cards for real-world yen. Some rare cards can go up to almost 5000 Yen!
- Scanning the physical kanmusu card will add them back into your fleet if you take them out or lose them.
Gameplay
Tutorial
The game will start you off with a tutorial, much like the browser and the Vita versions of KanColle. Complete the tutorial which details construction, resupplying and other activities and then you are free to start playing.

Battle

Screenshots
See the the Screenshots page. Note that some of these were archived from the official SEGA website.
Is it possible to get a Game Over in the arcade version?
TODO: Correct this section.
Unknown but there would be a Game Over in some form if you run out of time as could even be a "Thanks for playing" screen.
