How to Obtain Whimstar
Open World Exploration
Many Whimstar are scattered throughout the game's open world, sometimes tucked away in hard-to-reach spots. Simply approach and collect them!
Solving Puzzles
Some Whimstar require a bit more effort. These stars are guarded by challenges, such as breaking open chests (Q+Space keys), navigating pink clouds, or collecting smaller stars within a time limit.
Hidden Object Challenges
Look for glowing circles; approaching them reveals a hidden star within the circle's outline. It might be disguised as graffiti, an ornament, or something else entirely.
Reaching High Places
Some Whimstar float high in the air. Utilize environmental elements like bird nets or large leaves to reach these lofty rewards.
Glowing Creatures
Keep an eye out for pink-glowing animals, insects, and fish. Interacting with them—catching a fish or insect, or simply observing—might reward you with a Whimstar.
Mini-Games and Challenges
Complete mini-games and challenges, particularly those involving pink cubes that transform into gates. Successfully navigating these mini-games often yields a Whimstar.
Luminous Chests
Chests that emit a pink glow often contain Whimstar, but be prepared for a fight! Defeating the mobs that appear after opening these chests will reward you with your star.
Direct Purchase
As a last resort, you can purchase Whimstar from the NPC, Stray Hatty. However, the price increases with each purchase, so this method is best reserved for urgent needs or when you have plenty of Bling.
With a variety of methods available, accumulating Whimstar is surprisingly straightforward, allowing you to steadily expand your fashionable collection in Infinity Nikki.
