Stardust Shooters
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Shooters (ジョジョの奇妙な冒険 スターダストシューターズ, Jojo no kimyō na bōken Sutādasuto Shūtāzu) is a free IOS/Android game released in 2014 exclusively for Japan. The game is a a mobile spin-off of PS3 title, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle and focuses on the first three parts of the series: Phantom Blood , Battle Tendency, and Stardust Crusaders. As of December 2015, Diamond Is Unbreakable elements have been added to the game.
Gameplay
The game uses the touchscreen as the main form of interaction, allowing the player to input commands using their fingers. Combat against enemies is done using "striker" medals, each of which represents one character and their ability set. Like some card battler games, players must take into account a medal's available health and special attacks as well as take advantage of combo systems that will chain stronger attacks together.
The Medal Strikers also posses a different color, each color has an advantage and a disadvantage (Red posses advantage over Green, Green over Blue and Blue over Red. Both Yellow and Black colors posses has an advantage and a disadvantage against each other).
In addition to battle segments, Stardust Shooters will include animated sequences and character models featuring the entire JoJo cast from all three parts.

Trivia
- Characters such as Jotaro and Avdol were recolored to match their color schemes from the anime.
- This is the first game to have minor characters, such as Wired Beck, Loggins, Messina and Gray Fly somehow playable.
- After the anime's debut, the game received an upgrade, which allowed the players to use Metal Strikes based on the anime's artstyle; all the main heroes (except Iggy) and Shadow Dio received one.
- The heroes stand's visuals were also altered (when they appear during FINISH MOVES).
- During the game's loading and installation screens, special animations such as Joseph's "run away" and Jotaro's walking animation from All Star Battle are featured.
- Originally, if you tapped the icon in the loading screen, Iggy would fart in Polnareff's face. This has been updated to Josuke getting angry as he combs his hair.
- When a Leader Medal evolves into a Level 3 Medal Striker, a second special ability can be used during battles. Some of these abilities briefly reproduce 3d animations seen in the PS3 game. These animations include:
- Jonathan using his special move, Scarlet Overdrive.
- Dio Brando (Vampire) using his HHA, Space Ripper Stingy Eyes.
- Joseph (PART II) using his HHA, the Thompson Machine Gun.
- Wammu using his HHA, Holy Sandstorm.
