Tron Bonne's latest misadventure begins with her family's airship, the Gesellschaft, being taken over by debt. Tron sets out to explore an unexplored ruin with her younger brother Bon Bonne, but they soon find themselves in trouble. Now it's up to Tron to rescue her siblings and pay off their debt through cunning and stealth.
Gameplay in The Misadventures of Tron Bonne builds upon the action-adventure genre, with levels played similarly to Mega Man Legends. However, unique features like the Gustaff's ability to pick up and hurl objects, launch beacon bombs, and interact with Servbots add a twist to the gameplay. The game also includes additional mini-games, such as crate stacking and first-person dungeon exploration, which require strategy and teamwork to overcome.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an action-adventure game where you play as Tron Bonne, a sky pirate, piloting a robot to explore ruins and collect treasure. Your primary goal is to repay a massive debt by completing various missions, including combat, puzzles, and digging challenges. You'll manage your airship and upgrade your robot with the help of your Servbot crew.
Story
Sky Pirates
It's a strange world, covered by water as far as the eye can see. People are forced to eke out a living on tiny patches of land that rise above the sea.
Among these toilers of the soil, explorers called Diggers hunt for treasure in ancient subterranean ruins. If they find it, they live in luxury forever and never again have to scratch a living from the barren land.
A special class of Diggers have taken to the skies in fantastic ships, searching for treasure troves from the air. These are the Sky Pirates.
The Bonne family, Teisel, Tron, Bon and their 40 Serubots, have set their sights on becoming the most famous Sky Pirates of all. In their aircraft Gesellschaft, they roam the world in search of treasure. But so far, fortune has eluded them.
But now, they finally get a major break! They've found a map that shows the location of a legendary treasure. They power up Gesellschaft and set off on a fantastic adventure. Their destination is the Desert of Nakkai in Ryship Island.
They head there in their new robot Gustaff, invented by none other than Tron Bonne herself. Will their fortune finally be made? Or do the Diggers have other ideas?
The First Mission
The objective of the first mission is to take control of your robot, Gustaff, and discover ruins. Your Servbots will follow wherever you go. During this mission, help screens will explain the basic controls.
When you arrive at the ruins, you will fight Glyde, who is attempting to collect a debt. If you win, Glyde will take Teisel away.

When you shoot an object, your Servbots will run toward it and perform various actions, depending on the object. For example, if you shoot an enemy, they will attack; if you shoot a hole, they'll go in and collect treasure.
Game Objective
At the end of the first mission, Tron learns that Teisel has contracted a huge debt with Mr. Loath to build Gesellschaft. As Tron, you must now collect enough money to repay the debt and release Teisel and Bon from Glyde's clutches. What a challenge!
You must complete various difficult missions, including action, puzzle and digging challenges. You can choose the missions in any order, but to succeed, you must complete them all.

Enemies & Characters
TRON BONNE
The eldest of the Bonne children, Tron is a mechanical genius. She is strong-minded, but can be gentle with her Servbots.
TEISEL BONNIE
The older son and head of the Bonne family, Teisel takes good care of his sister Tron and little brother Bon. He secretly borrowed money from the Loath family to develop his new airship, Gesellschaft.
BON BONNE
In spite of his tall size and exceptional strength, Bon is still a baby. All he ever says is "Baboo" but Tron, Teisel and the Serubots always understand what he means.
SERVBOTS
The 40 adorable Serubots are Tron's creation. They do everything to support and care for the Bonne family, from housekeeping to fighting.
MR. LOATH
Head of the Loath family, this black-market financier has made a fortune using less than savory tactics. He has loaned money to a number of Diggers, including Teisel.
GLYDE
Second in command in the Loath family, Glyde takes care of collecting debts. He is known for his tough tactics, using his top-notch skills as a robot pilot.
BIRD BOTS
The Loath family robots, similar to the Servbots but disloyal and double-dealing. Bird Bots gossip about Mr. Loath and Glyde behind their backs and goof off when no one is watching them.
DENISE
A rookie policewoman, Denise has a strong sense of right and wrong. She is very motivated, but sometimes makes mistakes due to inexperience.
GUSTAFF
Tron's masterpiece, Gustaff is a powerful fighting robot used in action missions. It can shoot with its left hand and grab with its right hand.
GUSTAFF TANK
The lower part of Gustaff's body can be replaced with a Tank assembly. Both appendages on the Tank are normal arms that can carry containers and other items, while its head shoots Beacon Bombs.
FINKEL
Tron developed Finkel to explore small dungeons where Gustaff is too big to enter. Finkel has a small camera and can fire Beacon Bombs.
SERVBOT BORER
Designed especially for Serubots, this vehicle has a drill for digging holes when searching for treasure.
Tips & Maps
SPECIAL ABILITIES
Some Servbots have special abilities from the beginning or develop them. Giving an item to a Servbot may help it develop its special ability or cause a surprise.
SLINGSHOT
Servbots with this ability can attack with a slingshot when you use a Beacon Bomb.
BAZOOKA
With this ability, Servbots can attack with a bazooka when you use a Beacon Bomb.
APPRAISE
This ability empowers Servbots to identify items and tell you how to use them.
SNIPE
If you have a Servbot with this ability in Gustaff, your robot's shot ability improves.
MISSIONS
Most missions have 3 levels; complete level 1 to reveal level 2, and level 2 to play level 3. After level 3, the mission is finished, though some can be replayed.
ATTACK THE BANK
The objective is to carry out a bank heist. In level 1, attack houses to earn 50,000 Zenny by shooting the Beacon Bomb at the front door for Servbots to collect money and items.
RUINS OF NAKKAI
The objective is to collect Diana's Tear in a complicated maze loaded with enemies. If a door locks, defeat all enemies to unlock it; to save or retreat, go back to Drache at the entrance.
CATCH THE ANIMALS
The objective is to capture all designated wildlife by shooting them with the Beacon Bomb. If enemies attack your truck and its life gauge drops to nothing, the mission fails.
SHOT TYPE AND LOCK-ON
Once you're used to Auto Shot, try Manual Shot; using the L2 button to lock on will automatically face the enemy, which is useful if you've lost sight of them.
ENHANCE GUSTAFF AND TRAIN YOUR SERVBOTS
If action missions are difficult, develop power-up parts for Gustaff to make them easier, and train your Servbots in the Gym to make them more effective.
TALK TO THE SERVBOTS
Talk to your Servbots frequently; a Servbot with Identity ability can give useful information about new items, and talking to a Servbot who knows about his brothers may reveal secret special abilities.
MAKE MONEY ON YOUR FAVORITE MISSIONS
You don't have to complete all missions to finish the game; you can replay your favorite missions repeatedly to earn money and repay Teisel's debt.
SECRET TECHNIQUE
Hold the L2 button and press the A button to shoot the Beacon Bomb while locking on.
