The goal of the game is to collect all of the 12 different Prayers.
Prayers can be learned from interacting with objects and characters throughout the dream world, and each prayer alters Fluorette's appearance and may also give her special abilities. Some have a decorative purpose, while others prove useful for exploring the dream world.
The Prayers are modeled after Yume Nikki's Effects. While the game does notify you when you've found all the Prayers that exist, unlike most fangames, collecting the Prayers does not unlock an "Ending Sequence" that finishes with the credits rolling. This is due to Answered Prayers being uncompleted.
This page lists all of the different Prayers in Answered Prayers, complete with instructions on how to find them.

Broken Sandals
Found in the forest.
At first it serves no purpose and you are unable to equip it due to it needing to be fixed.
There is a ChiMiko that you can find in a shop at the Marketplace (page needed) who will stare at the broken sandals when you talk to her. If you speak with her again, you're given the choice whether or not to ask her to fix them.
If you ask her to help but lack the 400 Nat. needed, she will simply raise four fingers as a request for the needed money. Otherwise, she will fix them instantly and you will learn the Tall Geta prayer.
In V0.03, this item was removed from the game. The Tall Geta effect can now be found in the Green World.
