Different modes available:

  • Normal Trial – Replay the dungeons of the main game with the same rules while also being able to change your playable character. For dungeons that had a boss battle at the end, you can now challenge them again.
  • Time Trial – Race to the finish and strive to complete the dungeon in as little time as possible.
  • Turn Trial – Master efficiency by completing the dungeon in as few turns as possible.
  • Countdown Trial – Aim to complete the dungeon with a time limit on every turn and the dungeon as a whole.
  • Challenge Trial – Set your own personal restrictions to truly challenge yourself, such as completing the dungeon without using certain items or collapsing.

*There is also a mysterious sixth mode.

2. Play Using “Kokatsu Shiren”

The Kokatsu Shiren form from the main game can now be selected as a playable character in the Sacred Tree trials. Previously, Kokatsu Shiren could only be used in the Cavern of Suiryu dungeon, but will now also be available in other dungeons.
