The lower screen holds up to five bubbles containing food, abilities or other carried objects. Keep a free slot when approaching treasure so inventory clutter does not interrupt a chase.

Use the touch screen to combine contents

Dragging compatible bubbles together can combine their contents. Store useful food for recovery and keep a puzzle ability in reserve instead of activating every bubble immediately.

Use ability scrolls to expand moves

Treasure chests contain scrolls that improve particular Copy Abilities. A scroll changes the relevant move set; it does not permanently equip that ability or make every other power stronger.

Read elemental terrain interactions

Fire can burn suitable vegetation, Ice can freeze water surfaces and electricity can interact with conductive terrain. Use the environment as a clue when a chest seems inaccessible.
