System Icons

Select an item and press  or  to display that item in close up. 

When an item is able to be used, press  to use it.

Items

Select the Resume icon from the System Menu to temporarily save the game at a point when

you need to interrupt and discontinue play for the time being. After selecting “YES” from the

confirmation window, the game will be saved to the Resume file. Once the “Game save is

complete! You may now exit the game.” message appears, turn OFF the Dreamcast power or

perform a soft-reset (see p. 14 for details) as required. Select “Continue” from the Start Menu

to continue gameplay from the point at which Resume was performed.

While an item is displayed in close-up it is

possible to rotate the item using the D-Pad or to

zoom in/out using Triggers / . When you are

finished examining the item, press  .

CAUTION

There is only one Resume File available. Once you select “Continue” to continue 

playing the game, that Resume file will be erased. Because the Resume function is 

only designed as a temporary save feature, it is strongly recommended that you use 

both the Resume and Save features in conjunction to prevent loss of game data.
