Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This text describes a setting where powerful ghosts and spirits shape human civilization, serving as partners to shamans who determine their rank through their strength. While ancient civilizations like the Aztecs used spiritual barriers for protection, the player must now navigate a world where these barriers have broken, aiming to collect over 1,000 distinct spirit types through battle, rivalry, or peaceful means.
Story
Ghosts and spirits are the shapers of cultures and civilizations. They have existed long before the birth of mankind and hold dominion over the earth. Their mighty powers are supported by shamans who have attained god class. They are responsible for the creation of four ancient civilizations and have guided humanity for eons.
Spirits
Spirits exist as partners to shamans, always there for them when in need. It is said that a shaman's rank is determined by the strength of his spirits. Various types of spirits exist, including:
•
Animate spirits
•
Sprites
•
Angels
The Ancient Aztecs
Some civilizations were opposed to the mighty power of the spirits. The ancient Aztecs of Central America, who are not included among the four ancient civilizations, managed to avoid conflict with ghosts and spirits. They established a new civilization in the new world, using powerful shamans and the vast seas as a barrier to protect their civilization from ghost or spirit invasions.
That is, until humanity itself broke through that barrier.
Obtaining Spirits
It is said that over 1000 types of spirits exist. You can obtain them by:
•
Battling with restless, tormented spirits
•
Competing with various rivals
•
Obtaining them without fighting

Tips & Maps
Spirit Merging
Use the Town History Museum to combine two of your spirits to power them up by pressing the A Button, selecting 'Yes', and confirming the selection of two spirits with the +Control Pad. Note that some spirits are unable to merge with others.
Points to Consider when Merging Spirits
The merged spirit's level matches the stronger spirit but is capped at the character's Shaman Level, and spirit types may change based on the combination. Choose between 'Power Up' to increase ability without changing appearance, or 'Change' to alter both the spirit's appearance and ability.
