Trials Of Mana Lil’ Cactus Locations Guide – All 50 Of Them
We’ve had a ball with Trials of Mana, the other Square Enix remake that does justice to the SNES classic in Japan. Its gameplay both new and old are a good mix of improving the previous games’ flaws while accentuating the experience further.
One noteworthy addition is the Li’l Cactus Sightings minigame. If you find these fellows all across the world (via Nintendo Enthusiast), you’ll get a party bonus for each 5 you find. You’ll get a maximum of 10 rewards ranging from shop discounts to XP boosts; perfect for the game’s newly-added post-game content.
Every five times you find Li’l Cactus, you’ll receive a gift from him. The three bonuses that we’re most interested in are the rewards for 35, 45, and 50 sightings.
Disclaimer: this guide only covers the Angela/Durant path. This means that the last few sections will be different. Stay tuned for updates on this.
