Chests & Trap Info
| CHESTS | ||
|---|---|---|
| Most traps are usually triggered from treasure chests, but not always. Locks are also just annoying. A lock is simply that, a lock. It keeps you from opening a chest. If you fail, just try again until you get it. A trap is something else. If you fail, the trap will go off and hit you with the preset trap. If you fail to disarm a trap or a lock, the combination will change each time. Also, you will be unaware of what kind of trap it is at first, unless you have a Ninja or Thief do the disarming (if you don't have either of them, it won't tell you want kind of trap it is until you actually start disarming it). | ||

| TRAPS | ||
|---|---|---|
| Traps are more of a nusiance than anything else. When activated, you will be told by the game that you've activated a trap. When this happens, you have a set time limit to disarm it or the trap will go off and hit you with whatever trap it has been set with. When actually disarming it, you will see a set of buttons appear on the screen. You must press the buttons in order that they are on the screen. You will use: Square, Triangle, X, Circle, R1 and L1. | ||
