Single-Player Mode Features

Connect a Nintendo GameCube Controller to 
Controller Socket 1 to play single-player mode. 
Major features include the following:

Game Screens

Here is a guide to the three types of screens found in the game:

Take Mog with You

When you explore dungeons, Mog accompanies you and 
helps out with things like carrying the chalice (p. 19).

Check Your Radar

You can view a radar screen on the GBA by connecting a 
GBA to Controller Socket 2.

Fuse Spells on the Command List

You can fuse spells together on the command list 
to create new ones (p. 16).

The World Map

1

  Year

The number of years that have passed since your 

journey began. The current year ends once you fill your 

chalice and return to your village.

2

  Region Name

The region through which your caravan is currently 

travelling.

3

  Caravan

Your caravan. Move it with the Control Stick.

4

  Destination

Displays the names of towns, villages, and dungeons 

when you approach them.

5

  The Crystal Chalice

A cup for carrying myrrh. It shows how much myrrh 

you've collected as well as the current element of the 

chalice's crystal (p. 28).

1

  Character Name and Health

Your character's name and current HP are displayed here. Monsters' attacks will drain your HP, but 

the Cure spell and various items can replenish it.

2

  Action Commands

Press the A Button to perform the action shown here. Cycle through the command list with the L and 

R Buttons.

3

  Secondary Commands

Press the B Button to perform actions that vary with the circumstances, like "Examine" and "Carry."

4

  Crystal's Aura

The chalice's crystal generates an aura that protects you from miasma. If you step outside its 

bounds, your HP will gradually drain away. You can gradually recover HP by staying within the 

aura.

 

5

  Targeting Ring

Press and hold the A Button to make the targeting ring appear. Move the ring with the Control 

Stick, then release the A Button to unleash an attack or spell upon your target.

6

  Position Marker

Colored markers show each character's current position.

The Field Map

Radar 

You can view a radar screen on the GBA by 
connecting a GBA to Controller Socket 2. There 
are four types of radars (p. 23). The color of 
Mog's fur determines which one is displayed 
at any given time.

Single-Player Mode

In single-player mode, Mog joins you on your travels.
