Checking a box records your own progress; it does not verify your save or unlock anything in the game. The same browser shares this checklist across the site’s language versions.
How long does it take to beat?
PowerPyx’s launch roadmap budgets about 40 hours for the story and 50–60 hours for the platinum. These are that author’s estimates, not our measured clear times. Difficulty, dialogue, optional battles and exploration can change your pace considerably. Finishing four chapters does not mean half your playtime is left.
Find your current roadblock
| Where you are | Open this guide | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Chapter 2, Dirnado | Mechabo upgrades | Repair quest, Tackle and later upgrade requests |
| Chapter 2, optional cave | Shoggoth | Why physical attacks fail and what to bring instead |
| Chapter 3, Olderion | Ruby Cave | Three fragment landmarks and the Carbuncle return step |
| Choosing abilities | Best Visions | Practical roles and chapter-aware choices |
The list is an index of the guides available here, not a claim that every chapter already has a complete step-by-step route.
Explore now or return later?
Keep a manual save before a long detour and use the entrance’s recommended level as a warning for optional cave battles. If your available abilities do not answer an enemy’s defenses, returning later can be more useful than repeating the same attack.
PowerPyx reports post-story free roam. That makes cleanup possible without forcing every optional target into your first visit. For the next immediate choice, check your party’s Vision roles before setting off.
