INTRODUCTION [FAQ1]

Ninokuni: Shikokku No Madoshi (i.e Another World: The


Jet Black Wizard) for the Nintendo DS is the fruit
of the collaboration of a dream-team: Level-5 and Ghibli
Studios. It is a turn-based RPG with minor tactical
elements, pushing the DS hardware to its limits to deliver
a gorgeous adventure, albeit you need a physical
book essential to its gameplay ?which by the way axed all
localization hopes for overseas territories-, it
contains passwords and spells essentials to progress.
There should be online reproductions of the grimoire
spells if you have somehow lost it.
As for the upcoming PS3 english release (Wrath of the
White Witch), it is essentially a remake of the
DS version plus some story conclusion and a new party
member, but it ditches the turn-based battle
system, the gorgeous 2D backgrounds, the animated
cutscenes (replaced with CG ones, albeit
high-quality) and more importantly the ability to
draw the spell runes by yourself.
If you are interested in the DS version, go ahead.

Much of the info here is from there.

For making such wonderful hardware,
and localizing former Level-5 works.

Level-5 / Ghibli Studios -


for making the dream possible

Namco Bandai -
for publishing the localization of the PS3 entry

Barubary from the Spiriters Ressource -

1/BATTLE SCREEN [FAQ2a]
-----------------------------------------------------------

You can see your enemies on the overworld or in dungeons


(except in seaside where it’s random encounters).
You can avoid them this way, or better,
attack them from behind to gain an extra turn.
Beware though: they can do the same for you.
