# Basic knowledge

• You can remap controls by accessing "KEY CONFIG(キーコンフィグ)" menu from the title screen. "Input" tab on the startup menu does NOT work.
• This information is displayed on the save window. (1) NT/VU/EN/CR Mark: Difficulty (2) "LV" Mark: Serval's Level (3) "の" Mark: Percentage of rescued Friends and Lucky Beasts (4) Friends' face icons: Active Friends (5) Amulet Mark: Cleared stages count
• There are two requirements for calling Friends. (1) The number of Japari-buns needs to be bigger than the cost. (2) The total cost needs to be smaller than the value of Friends limit.
• On the Park Map, when you touch the movement point to each area, the Recommended Level is displayed in the lower right corner of the screen. For example, in the "Recommended Level 1-5" area, it is recommended to raise Serval's level to 5 before reaching the boss battle floor.
• Screenshots are stored in "KemonoFriendsCMC_Data/ScreenShot" folder.
• The update is completed by simply downloading and unzipping the new version of the game file. Since the save data is automatically inherited, there is no problem even if you delete the old version of the game file.

# Advice

• When escaping from enemies, disabling lock-on will make it easy to control.
• Some enemies have a stone. Stone is a weak point, so aim for it aggressively.
• Escape and take a break so that Serval's stamina is not exhausted.
• Fight in cooperation with Friends. It is dangerous to go ahead alone.
• If Serval's level is below the recommended level, it is recommended to grinding.
• As the game progresses, you will be able to use Wild Release. It is a good idea to use Wild Release aggressively.
• If the application is slow to respond, apply "Config"-> "Change settings at once"-> "Medium (Low) Quality Settings".
• If you experience screen sickness, apply "Config"-> "Change settings at once"-> "Anti-Screen Sickness Settings".
• If Serval's running speed is too fast to control, change "Config"-> "Control & Battle"-> "Friends' running speed".
• If you want to use items continuously, turn on "Config"-> "Control & Battle"-> "Continuous use of items".
• If you are dissatisfied with the camera work, change "Config"-> "Camera"-> "Camera turning speed", "Camera FOV", and so on.
• If you find the action difficult, change "Config"-> "Accessibility"-> "Simplify dodge command", "Simplify skill command", and so on.
• If the screen becomes cluttered due to Friends, turn on "Config"-> "Accessibility"-> "Obscure Friends".
• If you find the game difficult even with NT difficulty, lower "Config"-> "Accessibility"-> "Game speed".
