Hoshi Battle is a dueling game of skill and dexterity. Players assume the role of Yokai apprentices as they fight to save the spirit of Herion the Beautiful by becoming her champion. In each duel, the players invoke powerful heroes as they try to exile their opponent's hero from the world. The action is controlled by rolling dice in the fighting arena, then using the results to "strike" when the moment is right. The best duelists become Yokai Masters, their skill the stuff of legends! Hoshi Battle features simple, easy-to-learn rules and a high level of player interaction, making it the perfect game even for young players, and for anyone who seeks a test of speed and wits!
