If your life gauge is fully depleted, the game will end. If you choose to  

continue playing, you will resume play in the area where you had been,  

or at the entrance to the dungeon you had been exploring.

* In this booklet, images from the upper and lower screens are indicated as shown above.

** Closing your Nintendo 3DS during play will cause the system to enter Sleep Mode,  

reducing battery consumption. The Nintendo 3DS will exit Sleep Mode once you open it again.
