Gaou has a talent for chiseling gargoyle-like faces into stone. And in the game, he can make use of the gargoyle blocks that he collects by creating steps and platforms out of them. Whenever he throws his chisel at an enemy, it will turn into a yellow Gargoyle Block. As long as the block remains yellow, it will slide along the ground and Gaou can collect it, adding one to his supply of blocks. If he throws a chisel at a yellow block, it will reverse direction. If a yellow block falls or hits a wall, it becomes an immovable gray block. Gaou can also create gray blocks where ever he likes by pressing Down dpad+B button as long as he still has a supply of blocks, shown at the top of the screen. Gaou can destroy any gray block by holding Down dpad and jumping on top of the block three times. This trick may allow him to access areas that he otherwise could not.
