Jump Ultimate Stars Review

Jump Ultimate Stars boxart.jpg



Gameplay
Most of the gameplay is based around the use of commas ("panel" in Japanese, referring to the panel in the manga) that represents the character to make the decks on four by five grid. Commas come in many shapes and sizes, take 1-8 blocks. There are three types of coma that can be initialized in the battle, Battle, Support, and Help coma, with a deck needs at least one of each type and assigned leaders before played. Comma is a comma-block battle 4-8 that represents the character played. They are based on various manga panels and are used to represent a character type special attacks. Support coma coma two or three blocks representing the non-playable characters that can perform actions such as attack, healing or status effect. Help comma is a comma block that can give you different to enhance their characters are placed on the side. Each comma battle equipped with specific properties. These traits (Knowledge, Strength, and Laughter) acted in, Paper relations Stone, Scissors with the Power of Knowledge beatings, beatings Knowledge Laughter, Laughter and Strength beatings. Powerful type will deal more damage with a weaker type. Komas new challenges can be unlocked by clearing the Story mode, or developing an existing komas using gems collected in Story Mode to unlock new pathways and komas, such as a strong variation of the Battle coma.
  

New Feature
Jump Ultimate Stars has changed little from the gameplay of Jump Super Stars. Jump Ultimate Stars give the characters battle for the dashboard and the ability to carry out new attacks, while keeping, which, instead of breaking the opponent guards, forcing them to change the character, and can be identified with a green light that comes out of the character to execute it. Also, some 7 and 8 panel coma (along with commas certain panels 5 and 6) get a visual difference during battle as opposed to the appearance of a comma 1-6 of the same characters, some of this variation is also bringing a completely different set of attacks for the character (eg Naruto be Kyubii Naruto to his level 7 & 8 coma). Battle of the character now has a new capability known as the Ultimate Action (UA). This UA is different for each character, as some recover health, recover more sp, while others can be used to avoid enemy attacks. Another new feature added is the Chart of Evolution. This area allows players to upgrade their characters by spending gems (currency gained to ko'ing opponent) to buy a new coma. Each character has a graph, ranging from coma to help one block and branched out into the support block 2 and 3 and 4 to 8 blocks of the Battle of coma. Some characters have alternatives open road blocks for different types of characters (eg Goku as a kind of laughter is not the type of electricity), while others can be used to open a comma to the character of the same series, a quiz for the series, and the new world in story mode.
