TAKING YOUR CHAO FOR A WALK
PLAYING “CHAO ADVENTURE”
Transfer your Chao to a Visual Memory Unit (VMU) to take them on an
adventure. To do this, use a character to pick up* your Chao and carry
it over to the “Transporter Machine” located in the Chao garden. Jump
on the red button and set the Chao down. Select a VMU and press the
Button. The Chao will automatically be transported to your VMU.
When multiple VMUs are connected, you will need to select which
VMU to use to hold your Chao.
One VMU can hold only one Chao and one egg at a time.
*CAUTION: To avoid inadvertently attacking your Chao, it is recommended that you only
use the Y button when picking up Chao creatures.
“Chao Adventure” is an independent mini-game that you can play using your VMU. After you
have transported your Chao to the VMU, remove the VMU from the controller to start the
game.
