Dark Cave

Goal of the Game

To acquire the trophy, you need to get Nekura no Miko. To do this (untested instructions!):

• Focus on either Health/Charm or Wits/Charm.
• Stress only affects what questions you get. It's perfectly acceptable to have 5 stress at any point.
• Press square to change the question as necessary.
• Have exactly 5 in Health/Wits and 5 in Charm at the fourth growth.
  • Honey is the easiest monster to aim for.
  • For other monsters, ensure total Wits/Health is 20 and total Charm is 15 (regardless of whether the monster evolves to Grand/Pop at this growth). An additional turn can be taken before moving on to the next step, if necessary.
• Reduce Health, Wits, and Charm to 1 or 0. You should gain 10 points in your two necessary stats over the next four turns as you reduce, as long as you use the suggested question/answer combo.
  • Question: It seems mad at you. What would you like to do?
  • Answer: Make fun of it
• Around 8th growth, you should get a third stage monster, with Nekura no Miko following as soon as the stats are low enough.
