In Macalania Woods, you encounter a creature
who explains the butterfly catcher mini-game. To begin the game,
move toward the closest butterfly. You have to chase down seven
blue butterflies before time runs out. Avoid the red butterflies
because they'll call powerful fiends and remove 1 second from
the remaining time. If you catch all seven blue butterflies
before times runs out, a new treasure chest appear. The chest
will disappear if you leave the area, so don't forget to open
it and claim your prize.
You can take part in the butterfly catcher game in two areas.
The first area is the Macalania Woods-Central, near the creature
who explains the game. The second area is in Macalania Woods-
North.
This mini-game gets more difficult as the story progresses,
but the prizes keep getting better, too. At first the time is
set to 40 seconds. Once you defeat the Spherimorph, it becomes
30 seconds. Lastly, once you gain control of the airship, the
number of red butterflies significantly increases. Return to
Macalania Woods in the airship and succeed in both areas to
gain the Saturn Sigil, which unlocks the potential of Kimarhi's
Spirit Lance.
