Welcome to Star Chase! This game supports 1-4 players, with AI players replacing anyone who isn't playing. ========================================= Setting up: To begin, select the number of players and the characters of those players. Then select the map you'd like to play on! (See "Maps" below.) Another option is to play minigames of your choice. Great for if you want to perfect your skills on a certain minigame or if you want to battle it out with your friends! On the board: The board is the most important location in the game. Here is were you move your character, visit the dice shop, and roll the dice! On your turn, Select a dice block that you own, (Special dice blocks get deleted after 1 use.) and roll it! Press the brown button at the top-right of the screen before selecting and hover over each space to find out what it does. (If the host is speaking, space bar to advance.) Ending the game: The game ends after the final round is finished. The final round is the round when one or more players makes it to the Star Space with fifteen coins. To participate in the boss battle, be one of those players. The winning player is crowned champion! Minigames: A minigame is played at the end of each round. (Not including the final round, when a special twist is introduced instead) In the minigame, you must jump, spin, count, and defeat the other players! Minigame controls: Player 1: w a s d Player 2: t f g h Player 3: i j k l Player 4: arrow keys These keys have different uses depending on the minigame. Maps: Magnificent Meadows: A simple map without to many surprises. Sweltering Scramble: A more intense map with lava rising after every round! Tricky Tundra: A more relaxing map with a simple layout. Look out for the ice spaces though! Chocolate Land: The Chocolate People live here, and are neighbors to the Vanillagers. Travel through the candy-inspired land, and make your way to the vanillage! Blissful Beach: A very relaxing beach with very simple spaces. You can find treasure in the water, but watch out for sharks! Computer players: If your playing a game with less than four players, you'll notice at least one AI player. Enough of them will be added to make sure there are always four players. Dice block shop: Sometimes you'll find a dice block shop on a board. Passing by allows you to buy a dice block of your choice. Make sure to save some cash for the star, though! Gift: A gift is hidden on one normal space somewhere in the board. When you pass it, you can choose whether you want to pay 2 or 5 coins to buy a gift. You will receive one dice block, depending on how many coins you pay. Note: You don't need to buy a gift.
