Trivia[]
- The Japanese version of the soundtrack refers to the location Chapter 7 takes place in as On the Board of the Traveler (盤上の旅人 Banjō no Tabibito?).
- Chapter 7's Acts have a type of visual effect that warps the world around the player.
- This may cause sickness in people with motion sickness.
- If you are right under the Knight Chess piece obstacle as it falls down, you would be flattened. There is a unique animation in where the player character is flattened into the ground and appears 2D, much like a cartoon character.
