How to Play Wheels in Sea of Stars: A Fast Guide

Introduction

Wheels is a fun and engaging minigame you can find in the world of Sea of Stars, primarily in the game's inns. It's a 1v1 game that revolves around the use of a slot wheel and two "Hero" figures. The objective is to reduce your opponent's "Crown" (HP) to zero. Ready to become a Wheels champion? Let's dive in!

Getting Started

1. First Encounter: You can start playing Wheels as early as your first visit to the Port Town of Brisk. Just talk to the Wheels player at the bottom of the inn.
2. Initial Setup: You'll be gifted Warrior and Mage Heroes, along with a basic board to play with.

The Basics

1. The Board: Each player has a board with a Crown (your base) and space for two Heroes.
2. The Heroes: Each Hero has unique attacks and abilities. They act once they accumulate enough energy, represented by a rod beside them.
3. The Wheel: You spin a slot wheel to give energy to your Heroes and build your Bulwark (a shield).

How to Play

1. Spinning the Wheel: You can spin the wheel up to 3 times each turn. You can lock reels when they land on something you want.
2. Icons on the Wheel:
   • Blank: No effect.
   • Yellow Squares: Charge the left Hero. 3 squares equal 1 energy.
   • Blue Diamonds: Charge the right Hero. 3 diamonds equal 1 energy.
   • Hammers: Build your Bulwark. Match 3 or more.
3. XP and Levels: Heroes gain XP when activated or through blue background reels. At 6 XP, they level up, enhancing their effects.

Heroes and Their Abilities

• Warrior: Attacks low.
• Mage: Attacks twice, one low and one high.
• Archer: Attacks high.
• Engineer: Attacks low and increases your Bulwark.
• Assassin: Delays enemy Hero's charge and deals direct Crown damage.
• Priest: Charges other Hero and heals the Crown.

Strategy Tips

• Early Game: Focus on leveling up a single Hero quickly.
• Defensive Play: If the enemy is close to attacking, build up your Bulwark.
• Hero Pairing: Once you unlock the Priest, they can be paired with Mage or Archer for longer matches.

Winning the Game

• Objective: Reduce the opponent's Crown (HP) to 0.
• Champion Matches: To complete your Wheels journey, you must defeat every single Wheels player in a Champion match.
