Battle Rules

This game is an action RPG with card commands.
Fight with up to 3 characters from your party of 6 to defeat all the enemies.

If the time runs out, you will lose regardless of how much health you have left.
*Certain Story Battles may have special victory conditions.
*When the time runs out in PvP mode, the player who dealt the most damage to the other is the winner.

Elements

Characters each have an Element.
When a character with an elemental advantage attacks, they will deal more damage.
If they have an elemental disadvantage, they will deal less damage.
*However, Elements will not deal reduced damage against DRK.

[Basic Elements]
・RED: strong against YEL, weak against BLU
・YEL: strong against PUR, weak against RED
・PUR: strong against GRN, weak against YEL
・GRN: strong against BLU, weak against PUR
・BLU: strong against RED, weak against GRN
[Special Elements]
・DRK: strong against all Basic Elements, weak against LGT
・LGT: strong against DRK, no weaknesses

Reverse Element Factors

With Reverse Element Factors, your favorable Elements will be treated as unfavorable, and your unfavorable Elements as favorable.
Characters who possess this ability effect will have a Reverse mark next to their Element icon.
E.g., if an "Element: RED" character's Element factors are reversed, they will be strong against BLU and weak against YEL.
*Reverse Element Factors only affects basic Elements. It has no effect on the DRK and LGT Elements.

When two characters with reversed Elements face each other, whether or not your opponent's Element factors are reversed has no effect, and only their base Element will be taken into account.
E.g., if an "Element: RED" character's Element factors are reversed, they will be strong against BLU & Reverse BLU, and weak against YEL & Reverse YEL.
