The original Dark Cloud RPG was a huge success on the PS2, partially because it was a good game, and partially because at the time, the PS2 had a dearth of RPGs. Now the sequel is upon us, and it has improved the game in almost every area. At its core, Dark Cloud 2 is still an actiony dungeon-crawler with some intriguing and unique Georama city-building elements. It's also much more difficult than its predecessor.
That's where IGN Guides comes in. We've crafted a massive tome (over 130 pages) that will get you all the way through this massive adventure... and help you collect everything you need along the way. In addition to a detailed walkthrough, this guide has a full list of all Ideas, Enemies and Inventions, plus tips on fishing, beating all the bosses in the game, and collecting all of the Scoops. Have fun!
Get the guide here.

Hint: Name-change tickets |
Use a name-change ticket to change the name of any weapon. The trick is, for instance, take an extra wrench you have, change the name to Island King, and you have an extremely powerful sword for Monica very early in the game. |
