Find, befriend and battle hundreds of Yo-kai
After selling millions and being a cultural phenomenon in Japan, YO-KAI WATCH is coming to the United States for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. The YO-KAI WATCH game is about hundreds of sometimes cute, sometimes spooky, and usually mischievous Yo-kai that inhabit our world. Yo-kai are not ghosts, monsters or creatures. Yo-kai are, quite simply, Yo-kai. They cannot be seen by the human eye, but they are everywhere. Whether born from the soul of a deceased human, or an everyday object discovering its higher purpose, their personalities are distinctly humanlike.
As you explore the world, use your Yo-kai Watch to find them, befriend them, and turn them into a team to battle other Yo-kai. Befriending new Yo-kai may not be so easy, though – in many cases, you will need to battle with them and impress them during your battle. Each Yo-kai has its own unique skills and strengths and you’ll use them to challenge the evil Yo-kai and help people in need of solving daily problems – like an argument with a friend or forgetting something important – which may be caused by mischievous Yo-kai hidden everywhere.
Features:
- With the power of the Yo-kai watch, find and befriend more than 200 hidden Yo-kai, found everywhere in the world, and call upon their powers when you need their help.
- Assemble a team of six Yo-kai in your watch to defeat evil and help people.
- Each Yo-kai has its own unique skills and strengths, so use strategy to assemble your team to address different problems and fight different evil Yo-kai.
- Make your Yo-kai Watch more powerful and upgrade your Yo-kai as you play through the story.
Story
One day, the player (as either a boy named Nate or a girl named Katie) is out in the woods collecting bugs when they find an ancient-looking capsule machine. After opening a capsule, a spirit comes out and identifies itself as Whisper, a Yo-kai. Whisper gives the player the titular Yo-kai Watch, allowing them to see and interact with other Yo-kai. Using this, the player and Whisper go around stopping mischevious Yo-kai from terrorizing their home town and making friends with them.
Gameplay
Players use the Nintendo 3DS touch screen to search around the town for Yo-Kai to battle. In battle, players use the six Yo-kai previously befriended to battle opponents. Players can only use three Yo-kai at a time, and can switch between all six by rotating through them on the touch screen. Players can also charge their Yo-kai's special abilities and cure status effects on the touch screen.
Yo-kai can be acquired by giving them their favorite food before battle, the Yo-Kai giving them their medal after the battle to summon them whenever needed. Alternatively, players can use the in-game Gasha Machine by spending in-game currency or Play Coins to earn more Yo-kai.
