Gahhh I'll go back and find it. But I'm already so far in Inverted Castle -- 160% of the map explored aw yeah. And here's some more stats!

Time: 13:06
Level: 42 (EXP 134,833)
HP: 518
MP: 211
Heart: 272

Kills: 3331
Rooms: 1505

Though I've died very seldom lately, the difficulty has definitely ramped up a lot in the Inverted Castle. So I'm no longer really exploring every nook and cranny for now, out of fear of dying before I find another save room, and I'll be coming back to a lot of these areas to find what I missed. But damned if the Reverse Colosseum (if that's even its name) wasn't the most brutal area of the game so far.

That actually brings up possibly my biggest pet peeve of SotN, and it's one that's really bothered me from the onset of this game: I HATE that you can only see the name of the area you're in if you save and back out of your file. At least in the original castle, the very first time you entered a new area, it told you the area's name. Even then though, you could never see it again even from the map screen -- so silly. So I constantly forgot the names of the areas and their unique identities suffered for it.

But somehow it's worse in the Inverted Castle, as it never displays the name when you enter a new area. And some of these areas have unique names, not just "Reversed" so-and-so. Like I know the Long Library became the Forbidden Library and the Alchemy Laboratory became the Necromancy Laboratory off the top of my head. I would know a lot more, but I never back out of a game after saving just to see the names.

Such a shame because it just kind of makes all the areas blend in too much and stick out less in my mind.

Oh and one last thing...there's no librarian in the Inverted Castle's Forbidden Library, right? I think the next thing I'm going to do when I start this game back up is use a library card, buy some goodies, and search for that legendary sword familiar.
