The flagship RPG series of Chunsoft, the Japanese publisher/developer who created the Mystery Dungeon franchise. Shiren the Wanderer features roguelike gameplay set against a fantasy version of feudal Japan. Most of the games have you control Shiren, a wandering adventurer who wears a distinct kasa hat. Only four games in the series have been released to Western audiences.The series so far: Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer (1995, SNES) (2006, DS) (2019, iOS/Android) (titled Mystery Dungeon 2 in Japan; Mystery Dungeon 1 was the Super Famicom game based around Torneko from Dragon Quest IV) — Shiren journeys to the Golden City on Table Mountain, where the Golden Condor resides. Shiren the Wanderer 2: Oni Invasion! Shiren Castle! (2000, N64) — Natane Village keeps getting invaded by Onis, and the townfolk beseech Shiren to build them a fortress. Shiren the Wanderer 3: The Sleeping Princess of the Karakuri Mansion (2008, Wii) (2010, PSP) — Shiren and friends seek the Karakuri Mansion. Things get complicated. Shiren the Wanderer 4: The Deity's Eye and the Devil's Navel (2010, DS) (2012, PSP) — An island adventure, complete with monkeys and bananas and tiger people. Shiren the Wanderer 5: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate (2010, DS) — Utilizing the Shiren 4 engine, the game tasks Shiren with climbing a deadly tower in the hopes of changing the fate of a girl who has a terminal illness. Shiren the Wanderer 5+ (2015 (JP) 2016 (US), Vita) (2020, Switch, Steam) (2022, iOS/Android) — An enhanced remake of Shiren 5, and the first game in the series to be released in the U.S. since Shiren 3. Shiren the Wanderer 6: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island (2024, Switch) — When rumors of a powerful demon deep beneath Serpentcoil Island hoarding exquisite treasure spread across the land, adventurers flock to the island in pursuit of ultimate fame and fortune. After Shiren and Koppa see ominous visions of a maiden in need of rescue, they head to the island themselves in pursuit of this new mystery.Along with the main installments, there have been a few gaiden games: BS Shiren the Wanderer: Save Surara (1996, Satellaview) — A direct sequel to the first game that was broadcasted over four weeks from April to May 1996, and rerun once in June 1996. It was also the first game to have voice acting (for Koppa). Shiren the Wanderer GB: The Monsters of Moonlight Village (1996, GB) (1999, 2002, PC) (2011, Android) — Shiren encounters the Dragon's Maw and a seemingly quaint village. The villagers transform into monsters at night. Shiren the Wanderer GB2: The Magic Castle of the Desert (2000, GBC) (2008, DS) — This time, there's a creepy desert castle and some kind of Sealed Evil in a Can. Shiren the Wanderer Gaiden: The Swordswoman Asuka Arrives! (2002, Dreamcast, PC) — Asuka from Shiren 2 has her own little adventure with Koppa in Tenrin County, where they encounter ninjas and some sort of plant demon. Also, there's a massive postgame. This is the only Shiren game where he isn't the player avatar. Shiren the Wanderer: Princess Suzune and the Tower of Slumber (2013, Pachinko) — A pachinko game that's notable for being set after Shiren 3, making it the most recent story in the franchise's timeline. It's also the only game where Shiren, Asuka, and Sensei have voiced lines.One notable detail about this series is that it's the only Mystery Dungeon subseries that uses original Chunsoft characters, as opposed to characters from Dragon Quest, Pokémon, Final Fantasy, or Etrian Odyssey.For the first game in the series, only the DS version has been released outside Japan. The Wii version of Shiren 3 and the PS Vita, Switch, and Steam versions of Shiren 5 also had overseas releases.Masato Kato is the scenario writer for Shiren 3, and he was also involved in Shiren 4. | |

Heroic Mime | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Heroic Mime: Koppa does all the talking in Shiren's stead. One scene in Shiren 3 appears to subvert this, but that's because a dragon god is possessing Shiren and speaking through him. Later on, in the game-loading postgame narration, Koppa tries to get Shiren to talk, fails, and then pretends Shiren is talking and complimenting him. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: Shiren 2: A lot of importers get thrown off by the fortress-building aspect. Shiren 4: There's a day/night system. Weapons become practically useless at night, so you either have to rely on skills/magic or avoid monsters completely. One Famitsu reviewer described this mechanic as a "cat and mouse game". | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: In 6, the Escape Scroll is a post-game unlockable, unlike previous games. This means that you will be punished far more extensively for mistakes for quite a while as you do not have a way to restart with all of the items in your inventory, making matchup knowledge and sheer tenacity that much more important until you can unlock other features that make the climb to Mt. Jatou substantially easier. | |

Warp Whistle | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
In Shiren 6, beating Serpentcoil Island twice unlocks the Wagoneer, a fast travel service that can take you to any checkpoint location in the map. This allows you to progress story events, retrieve items from Warehouses and access shops without needing to replay Serpentcoil Island. Because you will usually do so at Level 1, the game will warn you against attempting to proceed to Serpentcoil Island dungeon and offers the ability to warp back to Shukuba Beach from the world map. | |

Hulking Out | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_164bd5fd | comment |
Hulking Out: A new mechanic in 6 is Sumo, which is triggered when Shiren's Fullness reaches 150, either by repeatedly expanding Fullness via consuming Onigiri and Bellyexpand Grass or eating a Sumo Onigiri. Upon reaching the Fullness threshold, Shiren's Sumo status activates, causing him to grow to twice his size (and noticeably pudgier). This confers multiple effects, including boosting Shiren's Max HP and attack power, allowing him to dig through walls regardless of the equipped weapon, granting the ability to negate and destroy any Trap that he walks over, and granting permanent immunity to warping and forced movement effects. As a downside, it doubles his Fullness consumption, and if his Fullness drops to 120 or below, he will return to normal and his Max Fullness will decrease by 5. | |

Peninsula of Power Leveling | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_16972b3c | comment |
Peninsula of Power Leveling: In Shiren 3, Sanuki Thicket and Ochimizu Pass get longer postgame, and have great items that you can now actually keep. The only downside is that you have to get to the end, but that can be easily circumvented if you befriend the Jizo, find him, and ask him to help you escape. Perhaps the best part is that you can access them as soon as you beat the game. Floors with Dragon Orbs are designed to be these as they can upgrade your items and you can map floors with them. Not surprisingly, there is an entire postgame dungeon filled with Dragon Orbs: Dragon Veins. In other dungeons you had to use Dragon Orbs sparingly because of the Fullness meter and the Winds of Kron; in the Dragon Veins dungeon, you can backtrack to earlier floors. The wisest strategy to use Dragon Orbs is a room with as many exits as you have party members. This was Nerfed in the PSP version so that the Winds of Kron blow sooner when Dragon Orbs are present. | |

| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_1a5bba2b | comment |
Artistic License – Geology: In Shiren 6, Tatsumi claims that Serpentcoil Island formed atop her body during a 1000-year slumber, despite 1000 years being a cosmically insigificant amount of time for an entire landmass to appear from nowhere without the interference of extreme volcanic activity, much less on top of a living being. | |

Law of Chromatic Superiority | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_1f7b2d59 | comment |
Law of Chromatic Superiority: Several monster families (e.g., the Tanks, the Reapers, the Bandits, and the Dragons) follow a green, blue, red color scheme for Level 1, 2, and 3, respectively, though others (e.g., the Rice monsters) will mix it up (e.g., green, red, blue). Following this pattern, the DS remake of the first game allows monsters to reach Level 4, which tends to be color-coded purple. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_1fb440a6 | comment |
Voluntary Shapeshifting: In some games, you can eat monster meat to turn into the monster that the meat comes from, and gain access to their special abilities. Okon and Koharu in Shiren 5 are shapeshifters. The former can turn into an assortment of monsters, while the latter can turn herself into either a weapon or a shield. In Shiren 6, this is accomplished with Peach Buns, a gift from the Heavenly Maiden. Using a Peach Club or Peach Staff on a target will transform it into a Peach Bun, and if consumed by Shiren, he will transform into that enemy and gain its abilities. The Heavenly Maiden later opens a Peach Bun Shop in town, where Shiren can peruse a random selection of Peach Buns and use Gitan to buy them before setting off. | |

Status Effects | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb | comment |
If removing something from the game entirely counts as a nerf, the pot that duplicates any item put into it and the scroll that enlarges pots were nerfed in the DS remake of the first game, almost certainly because they could be used together (with two Extraction Scrolls and a Melding Jar, which were left untouched) in an infinite loop. Another removed item was the Wizard Shield, which reflected the Skull Mage family's Status Effects attacks. It was instead replaced with the Prism Shield, which converts the attack to 10 HP damage and can only be found in the deepest floors of one of the postgame dungeons beyond the floor required to clear it. In general, the DS remake is mixed. On one hand, the more dangerous enemies were moved to later in the game; on the other hand, the most powerful items became extremely rare outside the postgame dungeons. | |

Loyal Animal Companion: In 6, it is revealed that Hibiki is actually looking for a baby Mixer named "Mick" whom she befriended in her childhood but subsequently went missing. She believed that tracking down the Pot of Synthetic Expansion could provide a clue to Mick's whereabouts, thus the Red Orca's arrival on Serpentcoil Island. Tugai manages to not only find the Pot first but also Mick, but upon realizing that Hibiki would be happier with Mick he lets Mick go, allowing Hibiki and Mick to finally reunite. | |

Shoplift and Die | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_33bcd2af | comment |
Shoplift and Die: If you steal from the shopkeepers, you'll have super-tough sheriffs and watchdogs on your back until you leave the floor. Even the shopkeepers themselves can kill you in one hit. You're not even safe at max level. And Escape Scrolls won't work while you've stealing stuff. Having Asuka and/or Sensei as allies in Shiren 3 makes this even worse, because you'll be locked out of Full Control (to stop you from simply switching to a different character and immediately taking the stairs) and if any of you die it's considered a Total Party Kill. | |

Video Game 3D Leap: Shiren made the jump to 3D with Shiren 2 on the Nintendo 64, although this is largely just a visual upgrade. The series has since jumped back and forth between 2D and 3D depending on the specific console, with Shiren 3 and 6 being in 3D (on the Wii and Switch respectively) while Shiren 4 and 5 are in 2D (both on the DS). | |

Rare Candy: Life Herbs, Power Herbs, Expansion Herbs, and Happy Herbs. You could also probably find some way to turn a Happy Staff on yourself, though this would require the assistance of certain monsters (specifically, Air Devils, invisible ghosts that reflect staff magic). Since this is a Roguelike, expect to see the negative versions as well. | |

| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_48b9731f | comment |
Paper-Thin Disguise: In the postgame of Shiren 3, the only difference between Master X and Sensei is a "ridiculous mask", as Koppa calls it, calling him drunk. A later event subverts this by making him and the real Sensei appear at the same time, but that's ultimately a Double Subversion: the "Master X" that appeared in that event was someone that Sensei used a Change Staff on. | |

Duel Boss: In Shiren 3, Asuka prompts a fight against Shiren at the Tomb of Kaguya, unable to accept waking up Kaguya if it would put the world in danger (with Sensei sitting this one out). Doubles as Dueling Player Characters, since she uses whatever she was still equipped with and even exploits her access to your shared inventory! | |

Throwing Your Sword Always Works | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_519f108a | comment |
Throwing Your Sword Always Works: It does the same amount of damage as swinging it, at the cost of destroying it forever. Best saved for extreme emergencies where you don't have a Scroll of Need. The Kappa enemies will abuse this if they find a sword on the ground. Some games allow you to meld your weapon with a Throwing Sword, preventing it from breaking when thrown/disarmed. | |

Easy Amnesia: At the start of Shiren 6, Shiren and Koppa's first encounter with Jakaku opens with Shiren apparently suffering amnesia after a heavy blow by Jakaku. Narratively, this gives newbies to the series the option to treat Shiren as an Audience Surrogate. | |

Socialization Bonus: The Rescue system in Shiren 6 has been vastly expanded from its previous incarnations. In addition to now supporting direct online rescues in addition to passwords, participating in any Rescue that isn't your own rewards you with Rescue Points (even if you fail to clear). Rescue Points can be spent on Rescue Aid on subsequent Rescues (including your own) to grant yourself powerful buffs, such as starting bonuses like more HP/Fullness, Strength or Levels, or permanent bonuses such as instant item identification, permanent double Action Speed, permanent floating, perfect accuracy, or a starting equipment package. | |

Inconsistent Dub | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_5b607875 | comment |
Inconsistent Dub: The three games that were released overseas before Shiren 6 were all handled by different publishers, leading to different names for some items and monsters across the series. Notably, most items in older games featured the naming scheme "[noun] of [adjective]", while the current official translation simplifies this to "[adjective] [noun]". The DS version of the first game was handled by Sega. The Wii version of Shiren 3 was handled by Atlus. The Vita version of Shiren 5 was handled by Aksys Games. Spike Chunsoft themselves is the primary publisher for the Switch and Steam versions, but it still uses Aksys Games' translation. Averted with Shiren 6, which Spike Chunsoft developed and translated. These translations are considered the primary ones for the entire series. | |

HP to One: The Double Strike Bonus Dungeon in Shiren 5 works this way for both Shiren and all monsters though unlike the monsters, Shiren can walk to regain health. As such, levels have basically zero meaning as strength is a non-issue here. On the other hand, if you get surrounded by monsters, you can't use health to soak up damage since you'll die in two hits anyway if you can't move. | |

Nintendo Hard: Especially if you're more used to its grandchild series. Traps are far more numerous and damaging, enemies hit much harder and ramp up quite quickly, you lose all your items if you die, and most damningly, Shiren's level resets to 1 after every major story beat. Overall, you have to be a lot more careful when traversing dungeons in this series compared to the spin-offs in the Mystery Dungeon brand. | |

Cannot Spit It Out | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_653c5c73 | comment |
Cannot Spit It Out: The denoument to the pirate subplot in the post-game of Shiren 6. The Red Orcas and Black Sharks are diametrically opposed types of pirates; Hibiki hates Tugai for his greed and generally pirate-y ways while Tugai is romantically interested in Hibiki. After Tugai reunites Mick and Hibiki in Mt. Jatou, Hibiki discovering that Tugai values her happiness causes her to fall in love with him, but because they're rivals she has trouble approaching him face-to-face. Meanwhile, Tugai starts dejectedly loitering around Serpentcoil Island under the impression that he's hurt Hibiki. It falls upon Shiren and Koppa to reunite the duo, but the reunion goes bottoms up and Tugai runs off to Kiki Island in pursuit of treasure, causing Hibiki to follow him to rescue him and confess her love. When Hibiki also doesn't return, Shiren and Koppa are forced to head to Kiki Island to save both of them. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: In the first game, the Scrolls of Sanctuary and Destruction can only be obtained by writing them on Blank Scrolls. Since they can't be found as items, the game gives you alternate methods of unlocking access to them. Sanctuary is simple enough: just free the Golden Condor. You don't know that it unlocks anything even after you've accomplished it, but it's something you're pretty much guaranteed to do eventually. But Destruction? You have to get from Canyon Hamlet to the Golden Condor's room without entering any storehouses, putting anything in a storehouse jar, or talking to any storehouse guys. You get one hint that accomplishing this does anything at all, in the form of an NPC proclaiming his intention to do it himself. In Shiren 3, better clear those solo dungeons before completing the postgame! Otherwise, you have to clear those dungeons with 10 less inventory slots. | |

Money Mauling: If you hold the B button while stepping on a Gitan bag, you can put the Gitan in your inventory as an item instead of putting it in your wallet by exchanging it with a different item in your inventory. Gitan bags picked up this way can be thrown at enemies, dealing an amount of damage proportionate to the amount of Gitan in the bag. Some enemies will also use this technique against you. | |

Level Drain | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_7764f879 | comment |
Level Drain: The Bitter Herb, the Seed of Misfortune, the Staff of Misfortune, and the Seed of Ill Luck can delevel Shiren, allies, and enemies alike. The last item only appears in the second half of the 99-floor Bonus Dungeon and resets you to your starting values of Level 1 and 15 HP. Ironically, it's one of the rarest items in the game: it only appears rarely in shops, and eating one of them unlocks an entry in the Adventure Log widely considered to be the hardest one to achieve. | |

She heartily greets them like old friends, but Shiren and Koppa haven't seen her for so long that they have completely forgotten about her, requiring her to brush them up on their relationship.

Too Awesome to Use | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_7d561d58 | comment |
Too Awesome to Use: Generally averted; trying to save up that Herb of Victory usually ends with you losing it and all your other items anyway. However, there are two items that qualify in the first game. The aforementioned Happiness Herb is usually only given out during a random event that triggers when you try to eat your last riceball, but most players will rarely find an opportune time to trigger that intentionally; leveling up is easy in the earlygame, and one level barely makes a difference in the lategame. The Herb of Invisibility, which grants you just that for 14 turns, is a rare item only found in shops located in the second half of the hardest bonus dungeon in the game, and its effect is only marginally better than the relatively more common Herb of Victory. Plus, outside that dungeon it's outclassed by the more common Air Devil meat which makes you invisible indefinitely for the floor. But this trope is subverted even in both cases, since the Borg Mamel companion requires one of each to level up. | |

Easy Level Trick | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_8125d8f6 | comment |
Easy Level Trick: One boss fight in Shiren 3 can be hilariously cheesed, if you know in advance. As a boss, Asuka wields the items equipped to her and uses any item that isn't contained in a Holding Jar (this includes not only Jars that have effects when pushed but also Revival Herbs). You can make the fight an absolute joke if you unequip her gear before starting her fight and then drop every item she can access on the floor during the fight... but she may have the last laugh if you went out of your way to max out her Strength stat. | |

Kokatsu Shiren cannot use equipment or throwable items, but has numerous special abilities such as an Evolving Attack and multiple special skills that use Fullness to bestow powerful effects, such as magically generating items or hitting an entire room for heavy damage. | |

| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_9b0b8109 | comment |
Floating Continent: At the end of 6, the defeat of Jakaku allows Tatsumi to raise the entirety of Serpentcoil Island from the ground atop a giant rain cloud. It then passes over the mainland, bringing rain (and gold coins from pirate's treasure) to the peoples suffering from Kokatsu's drought. | |

Time Travel: In Shiren 3, Shiren goes back in time and is in his ancestor's body. Koppa is a raccoon, much to his chagrin. Turns out it's not really time travel, but just the memories of the Karakuri Mansion. But in the postgame, Otsutsuki Village's well lets you actually time travel. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: Pekeji and Oryu debuted in the first game, and reappear in GB2. Shiren 3 has the reappearance of Asuka (from 2) and the Hyottoko Gang (from Asuka Arrives!). Curas (from GB2), Ragoon (from Asuka Arrives!), and the Tainted Insect (from the first game) all fight you at once in the postgame arc. The item descriptions for the "Old Mallet" group of items in Shiren 5 is narrated by Picotan, a character from 2. He spends most of the item description complaining about how nobody knows who he is because he only appeared in that one game. One of the unlockable shortcuts in 6 is the Golden Highway, a reference to the Golden Interval mechanic from 2 and featuring a similar gold-plated aesthetic. | |

Canon Discontinuity: In this teaser trailer for Shiren 6, it's notable that GB and GB2 were the only spinoffs officially acknowledged by Spike Chunsoft themselves. Save Surara was only ever available as Temporary Online Content on a now-defunct console, Asuka Arrives! is a licensing nightmare, and Princess Suzune is a pachinko game (aka gambling with bells and whistles). | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: In the first game, there are two swords and a shield that must be upgraded to their maximum possible level before you can upgrade them again to create the better equipment. Only one of the swords is derived from a common weapon, and that one is the Penultimate Weapon. Also, there is a special pot that can combine items together to get a new item that has the properties of all the items put into it. The best possible weapon in the first game is a [gold] [dragon] [crit] [sickle] [homing] [x3] [cyclops] [drain] [meat] [*] [air] [kigny] [unbreakable dig] Kabra Reborn+99. The best possible shield is a [gold] [dragon] [hide] [spiked] [evade] [*] [walrus] [prism] [gaze] [kigny] Stormward+99. It takes some doing to get all that, and there's nothing you can do to prevent it from being turned into a riceball or thrown into an unreachable place while or even after making it. | |

Evolving Attack | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_abc66b07 | comment |
The post-game Caven of Suiryu dungeon in Shiren 6 has a unique gameplay effect where Shiren fuses with Kokatsu, transforming into Kokatsu Shiren. Kokatsu Shiren cannot use equipment or throwable items, but has numerous special abilities such as an Evolving Attack and multiple special skills that use Fullness to bestow powerful effects, such as magically generating items or hitting an entire room for heavy damage. | |

Divine Conflict: The post-game of 6 reveals the Sun God Kokatsu attacked the Water God Suiryu in times past, forcing Suiryu to retreat to the seas where she slumbered for 1000 years to recover. While she slept, Serpentcoil Island formed atop her and became her main body, whereupon Kokatsu created the spider demon Jakaku to imprison Suiryu's spirit and prevent her from leaving, causing the nearby mainland to suffer from an eternal drought. Shiren and Koppa are called to the island to defeat Jakaku, release her from Kokatsu's hold and bring rain to the lands once more. | |

Earth All Along: The setting of the first games in the series could reasonably be described as a Jidaigeki-styled Constructed World where people worship the Eight Rivanian Beast Gods. Then Sensei in Shiren 3 references The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter and mentions not only Taoism (a word of Chinese origin) and "the land of Japan" but also the Creation Myth of Japanese Mythology. | |

Interquel: The games released after Shiren GB jump around the timeline, and four of them fall under this: The Swordswoman Asuka Arrives! is set one year after Shiren 2 (Shiren's first known adventure in the timeline), and seven years before the first game. Shiren 4 is set between GB and GB2. Shiren 5 is set shortly after GB2, and one year before 3. Averted with Princess Suzune and the Tower of Slumber: since it's set after 3, it's currently Shiren's last known adventure in the timeline. In Shiren 6, Koppa mentions that it's been several months since he and Shiren left Tsukikage Village (the events of GB). | |

Forced Transformation | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_b97a2fa7 | comment |
Forced Transformation: If you step on a Riceball Trap or get breathed on by a Rice Boss, you'll turn into a riceball. In this form your equipment has no effect, you can't use items, and a Rotten Trap can outright kill you. By throwing meat at an enemy, they will transform into the enemy the meat is named after. In the first game only, this even works on bosses. The Change Staff transforms the target into a random monster on that floor. The Skull Wizard family can do this to you as well, but you can choose to revert at any time. In Shiren 3, a shield with the "Chef" seal can turn almost any attacking enemy into a riceball (except the Rice monsters, which levels them up instead)! | |

Stopped Numbering Sequels: An unusual case; while the main series games have always been numbered in their Japanese releases, they have never been numbered in their non-Japanese releases. Shiren 3 is just called Shiren the Wanderer in the West, while Shiren 5 and Shiren 6 both have the original Japanese name minus the number. Amusingly, Shiren 6 still has the number "6" on its logo in the Western release, but the English title refuses to acknowledge it. | |

Bufu's Cleaver in Shiren 3 was nerfed to have a chance of breaking outside of Bufu Cave, which ends in Bonus Feature Failure after you meld it to your Infinity +1 Sword (at least until you discover that the Sturdy seal from the Adamant Pickaxe and Iron Hammer can be used to fix this as well). Several aspects of the game, like the Gitan Mamel and Ultra Gaze's Gitan yields, were nerfed in the PSP version. | |

Continuing is Painful: Everything except for the stuff you put into warehouses is lost once you return to the starting town, unless you fully complete the dungeon. Even then, your level, stats, and cash are reset. Keep in mind that this is considered nice for the genre. Shiren 3 has a start-of-file Easy mode that lets you backtrack to a recent save instead of losing everything. Shiren 4 also introduces an insurance system for gear and items. | |

Escort Mission | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_cfda0ecb | comment |
Escort Mission: Every single game in the series seems to have a reward for escorting someone through a Mystery Dungeon, whether it be a storage area, a rare item, or even a Bonus Dungeon. In the first game, one side quest requires you to locate a small girl and get her to the next resting point alive before you can use the warehouse there. At the end of Shiren GB, you have to escort a girl through the entire dungeon back to the starting village. The main story of Shiren 5 involves escorting Jirokichi through the Tower of Fortune so that he can save his childhood friend Oyu. This subsequently turns into escorting him through the Tower of Miracles so that he can undo her death. In Shiren 6, part of the sidequest to unlock the Golden Highway is to escort Kawasaku from the summit of Firespew Mountain all the way to Icewall Village. | |

Highly-Visible Ninja: However, Oboro makes up for it by transforming into someone you would never expect, like a shopkeeper. Of course, when she's not disguising herself, she is quite visible. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: In exchange for having mandatory allies in Shiren 3, you're given 10 extra inventory slots (for a maximum of 30). This applies even when the story makes you continue alone. Once you complete the postgame tournament arc and unlock the option to play without allies, you lose those extra slots if you do so, even if it's a dungeon that forces you to go solo. In Shiren 6, beating Serpentcoil Island twice unlocks the Wagoneer, a fast travel service that can take you to any checkpoint location in the map. This allows you to progress story events, retrieve items from Warehouses and access shops without needing to replay Serpentcoil Island. Because you will usually do so at Level 1, the game will warn you against attempting to proceed to Serpentcoil Island dungeon and offers the ability to warp back to Shukuba Beach from the world map. Also in 6, beating the game for the first time unlocks the Unsuspicious Shop in Shukuba Beach. The Unsuspicious Shop sells back weapons and shields that have been equipped and lost in the dungeon, ensuring they aren't permanently lost even if something unfortunate happens to them. | |

| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_d7b34c31 | comment |
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": An odd example in Shiren 3: the bamboo harvester, Taketori, is always referred to by the townspeople as Old Man Taketori; whenever you actually meet him, the game itself calls him Bamboo Harvester. | |

Action Bomb | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_dae3999d | comment |
Action Bomb: Spike Bombs and their higher-level forms. If a Spike Bomb's health goes low enough, it explodes. Items adjacent to it are destroyed, and if you're next to it you'll be knocked down to 1 HP, unless you have a Blast Shield equipped. It doesn't even give you experience points if it blows up. In the case of regular Spike Bombs, they stop moving when they're down to 23 HP or less (out of 50), and they go boom at 10 HP or less. | |

| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_db148980 | comment |
Mook Promotion: Most monsters you will find have different-level versions. When they level up (either by killing another monster, throwing a Happiness Herb/using a Staff of Happiness at them, or having a Ghost Musha/Dead Soldier possess them), they get promoted to a stronger variant. This might be useful if you're farming for monster meat or exp. | |

Nerf | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Floors with Dragon Orbs are designed to be these as they can upgrade your items and you can map floors with them. Not surprisingly, there is an entire postgame dungeon filled with Dragon Orbs: Dragon Veins. In other dungeons you had to use Dragon Orbs sparingly because of the Fullness meter and the Winds of Kron; in the Dragon Veins dungeon, you can backtrack to earlier floors. The wisest strategy to use Dragon Orbs is a room with as many exits as you have party members. This was Nerfed in the PSP version so that the Winds of Kron blow sooner when Dragon Orbs are present. | |

Penultimate Weapon | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_ed8ca7e1 | comment |
In the first game, there are two swords and a shield that must be upgraded to their maximum possible level before you can upgrade them again to create the better equipment. Only one of the swords is derived from a common weapon, and that one is the Penultimate Weapon. Also, there is a special pot that can combine items together to get a new item that has the properties of all the items put into it. The best possible weapon in the first game is a [gold] [dragon] [crit] [sickle] [homing] [x3] [cyclops] [drain] [meat] [*] [air] [kigny] [unbreakable dig] Kabra Reborn+99. The best possible shield is a [gold] [dragon] [hide] [spiked] [evade] [*] [walrus] [prism] [gaze] [kigny] Stormward+99. It takes some doing to get all that, and there's nothing you can do to prevent it from being turned into a riceball or thrown into an unreachable place while or even after making it. | |

Not Evil, Just Misunderstood: Kokatsu, the antagonist of Shiren 6, is revealed to be Tatsumi's younger brother. He also happens to be a child and was under the impression that the sun made people happy and that rain made people sad, which is why he brought drought to the land, unwittingly dooming the populace. Once Koppa helps clear up the misconception, he becomes friendly and assists in helping Shiren and Koppa calm Tatsumi after his defeat causes Tatsumi's power to rage out of control. | |

In Shiren 6, this is accomplished with Peach Buns, a gift from the Heavenly Maiden. Using a Peach Club or Peach Staff on a target will transform it into a Peach Bun, and if consumed by Shiren, he will transform into that enemy and gain its abilities. The Heavenly Maiden later opens a Peach Bun Shop in town, where Shiren can peruse a random selection of Peach Buns and use Gitan to buy them before setting off. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: Subverted by the Action Prologue of Shiren 6. It starts with Shiren fighting Jakaku, with Koppa giving a brief recap of events leading to the confrontation after he knocks his head and suffers from Easy Amnesia. Shiren proceeds to fight Jakaku and its lackeys, but he is woefully underequipped and is expected to perish within a few turns, after which the story picks up in a nearby town. However, experienced players can actually eke out a win if the game is still generous enough to give them the tools: two examples are the status-inducing Empathetic Staff to kill Jakaku via reflected damage, and a combination of Invincible Grass and Swift Grass to rush Jakaku down. This unlocks the postgame right there and then. | |

Item Crafting | |
| Shiren the Wanderer (Video Game) / int_ff34c05a | comment |
Item Crafting: Synthesis is a major recurring mechanic in the series. When two pieces of equipment or two Staves are inserted into a Synthesis Pot, they fuse together, combining the Runes installed on them into a singular item for equipment or combining their charges for Staves. There are also enemies called Mixers, who will eat any item thrown at them; if slain after consuming at least two compatible items, they will drop a fusion item. Unlike the Pots, Mixers can combine equipment and certain non-equipment items, allowing you to generate special Runes. | |
