multiple-choice questions related to their region. Answer correctly to deal

Your success in battles depends on your knowledge and quick thinking.

providing tactical advantages in battles.

Variety of Items

the unique enemies and challenges you’ll face. Discover and utilize these
items to enhance your gameplay.

Allies

Gathering Allies

Throughout your journey, you’ll meet various allies who can join you in battle.
Each ally brings a special move that can make answering questions easier.
For example, Rukh, a charming thief, can steal wrong answers, removing them
from the multiple-choice array.

strategically. Complete allies’ quests to make them more powerful. For
instance, Rukh can level up to steal two wrong answers instead of one.
