Wonder of Blue

Once upon a time, in a world not quite like our own, Liddell tumbled down the rabbit hole and found herself in a vivid and wondrous land where nothing was quite as it seems. There she encounters a mysterious pink cat named C.C. who accompanies her into the flowery White Willow. Adventure awaits her in the Labyrinth, and the Queen of Hearts anticipates her arrival.

Evade attacks with a graceful Twirl and obtain new abilities from Treasure Chests in order to reach the depths of the Labyrinths. No two Labyrinths are the same when the terrain and treasures shift with each venture. Great adversaries dwell in this tale inspired by Alice in Wonderland.

Casual Mode offers an easygoing experience where Labyrinths can be retried upon defeat whereas one misstep in Wanderlust Mode can send Liddell back to the very beginning of her journey. Wanderlust+ offers fixed layouts for a traditional dungeon crawler experience.

Z: Confirm / Attack

X: Cancel / Use Item

C: Twirl

A: Item Menu

S: Left Swap

D: Right Swap

Enter: Pause

(Control bindings can be remapped in game for both keyboard and controller.)

Twirl (C by default): Liddell performs a spinning pirouette that is able to evade attacks from enemies. This move can be used during Liddell's own attacks.

Sprint (Keep C held down after a Twirl): Liddell enters a run state that is faster than her usual walk speed.

Power Cut (Keep Z held down after an attack): Strength is concentrated into a single attack with more range and damage. Charge is lost upon getting hit.

Use Item (X by default): Magic Points (MP) are used to perform a special attack with Liddell's current item. Use Left Swap and Right Swap (S and D by default) to switch between collected items.

Guard Crush: Using a Power Cut or an Item against a shielded enemy will dispel their protection and leave them vulnerable to melee Attacks.

Each Treasure Chest in the Labyrinth offers 3 random items to choose between. These items offer unique abilities such as passive effects from Mementos and ranged special attacks from Suit Cards. Each Suit Card comes in a pack of 5 and they expend 1 bar of MP upon use. MP can be replenished by dealing melee damage to enemies.

Desserts and Royalty Cards provide valuable healing that can be used at any moment. Exploration items such as the map and compass unveil the Labyrinth so that more Treasure Chests can be found.

Some of Liddell's inventory is lost upon defeat on Casual Mode, as well as half of the Gold she carries. Liddell can reclaim her lost Gold in any playthrough by reaching the floor which she was previously at. Certain Mementos can be repurchased from the Dream Journal once they are found for the first time.

Progression elements are light and limited to the Dream Journal as well as the ability to reroll items. Little is kept between playthroughs beyond familiarity with the Labyrinth and the Soulslike challenge posed by bosses.

Within the Settings Menu of the main menu is a unique feature that applies a palette of 4 colors onto the game to freshen up each playthrough. Choose between 19 different color palettes, including 4 retro palettes that are inspired by the familiar Game Boy. Along with this is an alternative 8-bit soundtrack to complement the pixel aesthetic.
