* Strats go here!
==== Simulation Stratagies ====
*Each area features 2 lairs that when sealed, improve the simulation level (you get a message). This increases how fast the population grows.
Fillmore: Bat (upper right), Dragon <br>
Bloodpool: Bat (upper left), Dragon (near temple) <br>
Kasandora: Both Red Demon lairs <br>
Aitos: Dragon (upper left, lower left) <br>
Marahna: Red Demon, Bat Lairs <br>
Northwall: Doesn't matter (but for the record, it's the dragon and far east skull lairs)
*Wheat does improve the population level if you hit the 1st field right away. Kasandora w/o wheat took 2 increases to hit a population of 14. When I used wheat right away, it hit it in one increase.
*The red demon's lair can be sealed in Bloodpool w/o destroying the trees.
*If Bloodpool is post-Act II and the population hits 300, the civil war will commence. Your population can go over 300 w/o using music if you're away from Bloodpool before you hit the mark.
*Teddy running away from home and Aitos' windmills stopping kills the population growth until they're solved/fixed. (Northwall getting the chills may as well, but this is untested.)
==== Action Stratagies ====
*On the normal game, Stardust is the magic of choice. This is found in Bloodpool after sealing the Red Demon lair.
*Some places, such as Northwall Act I, taking damage is considerably faster as you simply run through the enemies, instead of being bounced back.
*On the Japanese version, all ground spikes are INSTANT DEATH. Thus a minor shortcut in Bloodpool Act II (Part 3) can't be taken due to this.
