Challenges are in-game quests offering one-time rewards of Bonds and Challenge Stars. While some are straightforward, others present a greater challenge. No manual acceptance is needed; they're always active, readily viewable on the Challenges Board in the main lobby. Currently, Challenge Stars are primarily for showcasing accomplishment.
