Consumable items provide temporary benefits like healing or stat boosts, while key items are essential for progression or unlocking new areas. Managing your inventory of these items is crucial.
Consumables:
- Potions: Restore HP. Come in various strengths (Potion, High Potion, Super Potion).
- Mana Prisms: Restore MP. Essential for magic-heavy builds.
- Food: Restore HP, sometimes with minor stat boosts. Found in breakable objects or dropped by enemies.
- Antidote/Uncurse: Cure status ailments like Poison or Curse.
Always carry a good stock of healing items, especially before boss battles. You can purchase many consumables from Hammer's shop.
Key Items:
- Castle Map: Reveals more of the castle layout.
- Magic Seals: Acquired after defeating certain bosses, these are drawn on the touchscreen to seal powerful demons.
- Movement Souls: (e.g., Double Jump, Slide) are technically Ability Souls but function as key items for progression.
- Story-related items: Specific items required to advance the plot, often found after defeating bosses or in specific locations.
Key items are automatically used or equipped when needed. Consumables should be used strategically to maximize their effect and ensure Soma's survival.
