Where to find the Ghost Medal in Super Mario RPG

One of the best aspects of Super Mario RPG is how beginner-friendly it is as an RPG. You don’t have a ton of stats to manage, and your weapons and equipment are mostly linear upgrades outside of some secrets. Accessories are the most interesting ways you can customize your party, allowing you to add unique attributes. The Ghost Medal is one of the strongest of these. but it’s tucked away in a hidden corner of the game. It’s no time for a nap, so let’s go over how to get the Ghost Medal in Super Mario RPG.

The Ghost Medal can be found only after you’ve reached Monstro Town, which is a good way into the game. Once here, enter the house directly to the right of the Item Shop, turn off the mushroom light, and rest in the bed. While sleeping, the Three Musty Fears will appear around Mario and tell him clues as to where their flags are. By collecting them all, you will earn this accessory. Here’s where to find them:

  • The first is way back at the beginning of the game at Mario’s Pad. Go inside his house and look under his bed.
  • The second is in Rose Town. It is right behind the Welcome sign at the entrance.
  • Last up, go to Yo’ster Isle and check the GOAL sign at the end of the racetrack.

Once you’ve collected all the flags, go back to the bed in Monstro Town once more and rest again. When the Three Musty Fears appear again, they will reward you with the Ghost Medal that cuts all incoming damage by half.

Where to find all inventory upgrades in Alan Wake 2
Saga stands in front of an evidence board in Alan Wake 2.

While the first Alan Wake game certainly had plenty of scares and horror in it, the mechanics were not as strictly of the survival horror variety. Alan Wake 2 has gone fully in this direction, however, with a much darker tone, disturbing imagery, and restrictive combat mechanics that sustain the tension when The Taken attack.

Aside from limited ammo, low health, and tough enemies to bring down, a key aspect of survival horror games is an inventory system. The first game let you hold essentially as much ammo, batteries, and weapons as you wanted in each chapter, but the sequel introduces a grid system that will look familiar to Resident Evil fans. Just like Resident Evil, your inventory starts off quite small, but you can see there is plenty of space for it to grow. There are specific items hidden in and around Bright Falls that can let you expand your carrying capacity, but many are well hidden in dark corners. Here are the locations of every inventory upgrade in Alan Wake 2.

The science trophy we're looking for is in the southern part of the Financial District on a church. The exact location can be seen above, but the church itself is impossible to miss once you're in the area. When you reach the church, climb up onto the roof behind the main steeple and look up at the small balcony running around it. If you're close enough, you will see the small white circle indicating that there's something you can interact with there.
