TheFifteenthMember Yes. You're creepy. I can't say we'll miss you while you're gone, so it'd be best if you did go. We all win that way. — TheFifteenthMember 16:30, 5 August 2014 (UTC) This forum thread will contain the tutorial transcripts for all games. Also, the plan is to eventually list the trigger requirements for each tutorial too.

Re:coded "Tutorials"

First, Get Down the Basics

Controls

Use to move around.
Use to jump.

• The "Attack" Command
  

Press to attack.
Keep pressing to chain together a combo!

• The Command Deck
  

The blue boxes above the Attack command
are called deck commands. Press to use the
command in the middle box. You must wait for
deck commands to reload between uses.

• Auto-Jump
  

Keep holding as you approach a ledge
and you will automatically jump up or across,
depending on context.

• Adjusting the Camera
  

Hold and press , or just slide
along the map on the Touch Screen
to adjust the camera.

• Locking On
  

Lock on to an enemy to automatically
keep it in your sights.
+ (tap): Lock on/ Exit lock-on
+ (hold) + : Change targets

The HP Gauge

The green gauge in the lower right
represents your HP, or health.
If you run out of HP, it's Game Over.

The Map

On the Touch Screen is a map that shows your
position and where to find enemies and exits.
Press to zoom the map and camera out
when you are moving through dense areas.

Save Points

Enter a save point and press to
open the save menu, where you can
record and save progress.

Keep Those Abilities Flowing

Overclocks

Attack enemies or certain objects to fill up
the clock gauge. Each time you do, you will rise
a clock level, activating an ability on the
Clock Ability Tree and moving to the next tier.

Finish Commands

After you have reached one of the endpoints
on the tree, filling the clock gauge one last
time will change the Attack command to Finish.
Press to unleash a devastating attack!

The Clock Ability Tree

Touch the TREE icon on the Touch Screen to
bring up the Clock Ability Tree at any time.

• Choosing Abilities

By touching your choice on the Clock Ability Tree,
you can control which ability will activate next.
Keep in mind that Finish commands are more
powerful at higher levels along the tree.

Leave No Spoils Unclaimed

EXP (Experience)

You receive EXP for defeating enemies.
Earn enough EXP and you will receive a
Level Up chip.

Prizes

Defeating enemies may cause them to
drop prizes. Collect the green ones
to restore HP.

• Munny
  

If you want to shop, you will need
munny first. Take out enemies or break
prize blox to keep your wallet happy!

• Stat Chips
  

Install any stat chips you find in the
Stat Matrix to increase your HP, strength,
or other attributes.

The Moogle Shop

Visit this shop to buy a wide selection
of chips or sell the ones you have.

Use the Stat Matrix to Power Up

The Stat Matrix

Install chips into the slots on the
board to gain new powers.

• Installing Chips
  

Start by pointing to an empty, adjacent
slot and pressing to select a chip.

• Reconfiguring Chips
  

Something to keep in mind: you cannot
remove a chip from a slot, but you CAN
swap it with another chip that hasn't
been installed yet.

• Unlocking Boards
  

A new section of the Stat Matrix is
unlocked whenever you complete a world.
Each section has its own CPU you can use
as a starting point.

• Bonus Boosters/Support Abilities
  

Use chips to fill in the slots between
these pink objects and a CPU to unlock
useful support abilities.

• Command Expansions
  

Use chips to fill in the slots between a CPU
and these objects marked with a key to unlock
one additional slot group in the Command Matrix.

• Accessory Expansions
  

Use chips to fill in the slots between a CPU
and these objects marked with an armlet to
unlock one additional accessory slot in the
Gear Matrix.

• System Memory
  

Each command uses up a certain amount of
system memory. You cannot install a command
if it will cause the MEMORY indicator at the
bottom of the Touch Screen to exceed 100%.

• CPUs
  

All chips are powered by CPUs.
Install your first chip next to a CPU, then
build outward to complete the Stat Matrix.

• Dual Processing
  

Now that you have more than one CPU,
try connecting them with chips to activate
dual processing. This doubles the effect
of chips between the two CPUs!

• Bug Chips
  

Sometimes these bug chips will impede
your progress. Use Debug Devices to
blast them clean off the matrix!

• Debug Devices
  

If you have a Debug Device, you can use it
to destroy one bug chip of the same color.

• Wiring
  

Wiring is another way to pass power from
the CPU to objects on the board. If an object
has two wires attached, you will need to
connect chips to both wires to power it up.

Perform Great Feats with Cheats

Cheat Tuners

Connect chips to these cheats and you can
then use them to alter stats or rig the game
system in your favour.

• The Difficulty Cheat
  

You can change the game's difficulty anytime
you want with this gadget. Beginner is the easiest,
Critical the hardest. Enemies drop better items in
harder modes.

• The Prize Cheat
  

Use this to tweak how many prizes you get
from defeating enemies or destroying blox.
Increasing your prizes will make enemies
stronger, and the cheat unfortunately has
no effect on SP or score prizes.

• The Loot Cheat
  

Use this to tweak how often enemies drop
itemswhen defeated. Increasing your loot
will lower your HP.

• The CP Cheat
  

Use this to tweak how much CP you receive.
Increasing your CP intake will lower the amount
of EXP you receive.

• The HP Cheat
  

Use this to simultaneously tweak your HP and
enemy HP. Setting the cheat to 0% will reduce
everyone's HP to 1.
