Unique Elemental Interactions

What makes Cassette Beasts stand out is its physics-based logic for certain elemental interactions. These aren’t just about hitting harder—they introduce status effects or change the battlefield entirely.

• Water Extinguishes Fire: Using Water moves against Fire monsters reduces their attack power by putting out their flames.
• Lightning Conducts Through Water: Lightning moves deal extra damage when used on Water monsters and can even chain damage to others if the conditions are right.
• Fire Melts Metal: Fire moves can “melt” Metal monsters, inflicting the Burn status for damage over time.
• Plant Leeches Health from Earth and Water: Plant moves apply a leeching effect to these types, letting your monster recover HP every turn.
• Air Uproots Plant: Air attacks weaken Plant monsters by draining their ability points (AP).
• Poison Corrodes Metal: Poison moves lower Metal monsters’ defenses, making them more vulnerable to follow-up attacks.
• Ice Flinches Water: Ice attacks can coat Water monsters and force them to skip a turn (Flinch).
• Glass Shatters Under Pressure: Glass monsters are extremely powerful offensively but are easily shattered by Air or Metal moves, scattering damaging shards on the battlefield.

These interactions add another layer of depth to battles. Use them to disrupt your enemies’ strategies or turn the tide of a fight in your favor. In fact, mastering these elemental matchups and unique interactions in Cassette Beasts will give you a significant advantage in every battle. Pairing strong elements with special effects lets you deal extra damage while keeping your team protected from threats.
