 - Tips for Playing:

• Pay Attention to Patterns: In battles, enemies will often attack in predictable patterns. Watch carefully and learn the attack sequences to dodge more effectively.
• Conserve Resources: Healing items and powerful attacks are limited, so use them wisely during tough encounters. The timing of your actions can make the difference between victory and defeat.
