How to Play Boktai: The Sun is in Your Hand
Quick start
At first boot, calibrate the Solar Sensor in shade, set the clock, name and location, then choose GAME START, DATA.1 or DATA.2 and a difficulty. The adventure’s core loop is to enter an enemy dungeon, find and defeat its boss, drag the coffin outside, then use the Pile Driver with real sunlight to purify it. Keep some solar energy stored and use wall knocks to lure guards away.
Controls
D-pad: move/select; hold R with it to look around, and press toward a wall to flatten against it. A: context action, charge the Solar Gun in sunlight, talk/open/grab a coffin, or knock while flattened. B: fire; hold for Solar Spread. L: throw grenade. SELECT: item/Gun/map screens. START: pause and save.
