A post-war Zelda from SNK with elemental blades and a charged slash that is the whole combat system. Towns hide in a ruined world. Status shots matter as much as steel.

Tips

  • Start here

    Hold the button until it flashes

    A charged slash is a different weapon. Match the blade to the region — ice on fire doors, thunder on the robots. Talk to every elder twice.

  • Secrets

    The dolphin is a ferry

    Some 'blocked' coasts are a song or an item away. Don't grind the first field forever — the next town sells the sword that makes that field trivial.
