  4. See Area Names When Entering Them

    By default, this feature is oddly turned off.

    To see the name of the area you are entering, hit SELECT to bring up the menu. Go to the STATUS screen where it displays your stats.

    While on the status screen, hit SELECT again to activate the area name function (it will make a "warping" sound). If you hit SELECT again, it will deactivate the function (it will make a "crashing" sound).

    When activated, the name of the area you are entering will appear in the brief transition screen between areas. This is especially helpful in areas like Darm Tower in Book I.

  4. Unlock Mascots in Ys II

    Mascots are sprites of characters and enemies hanging from strings that can be displayed on-screen after they've been unlocked by going to the options menu. Mascots are cross-save meaning that if you fulfill the requirements to unlock a mascot in one save, it will be available in all saves.

    For NPCs you can gift them items such as herbs and flowers to raise a hidden affection stat. Simply approach the NPC with the item equipped in your inventory. Usually the mascot for an NPC is unlocked once their dialogue starts repeating. Note that if you used fire magic on an NPC, their affection can go negative and it will more gifts than normal to max it out.

    For enemies you must find and drink the Bestiary Potion and then defeat that specific enemy a number of times until all of its data is unlocked in your Notes.
