Challenge Boss Monsters
Deep within dungeons, formidable boss monsters await.
Summon every power at your disposal to defeat them.
Once a battle begins, you cannot flee.
After defeating a boss monster, you can collect a drop of
myrrh. Each drop fills a third of your chalice. Once you
collect myrrh from a myrrh tree, it takes several years for
the tree to replenish its supply.
A moogle will come to deliver mail while you rest after
battle. You can send replies as well (p. 31). No mail will
come if the myrrh tree there is dry.
Items and artifacts (p. 33) are divided among the members
of the caravan. In multiplayer mode, the player who earns
the most bonus points gets first choice. The number of
points you accumulate depends on how well you fulfill the
bonus condition displayed on your GBA screen.
The Basics
Players are members of a crystal caravan that seeks out
myrrh. Your adventure will unfold in the following manner:
Game Progression
From the world map menu, select "Set Out," then select a
character or create a new one. You can have up to eight
characters in a caravan.
Use the Control Stick to move your caravan across the
world map. When you reach your destination, press
the A Button to enter.
Once you enter a dungeon, the world map is replaced with
the field map. You are given a chance to set up your
command list (pp. 16 and 23) before advancing further.
Defeat monsters you encounter and solve puzzles
hindering your path. Collect treasure from monsters and
treasure chests.
Return to the World Map
Return to the world map to continue your journey. Be sure to purchase new
equipment from blacksmiths in town now and then. You never know what you'll run
into on your journey.
Game Progression
Basic steps to advance the game are outlined below. They generally apply to
both single-player mode and multiplayer mode.
