Tips
  • In the Underground District, look at the wall straight ahead of the Kinshicho Terminal exit to find a wall vent: this is a really fast way to reach your room in the Residential District for free healing (restoring HP and MP).
  • Save your game frequently, especially before entering new areas or facing bosses.
  • Pay attention to enemy weaknesses, such as the boss being weak to Electricity.
