About Wander Stars

Ringo searches for her brother while Wolfe confronts his past. Action words such as KICK or BLOCK define the move; modifiers change damage, cooldowns or targets, and elements add effects such as burning. Spirit level limits the number of word slots. With at least two hundred words to collect, choosing a battle vocabulary means balancing cooldowns against enemy strengths and weaknesses.

Honorable victories can turn rivals into friends and award equipable Pep Ups that provide combat bonuses.
