The World
The first and most important icon is The World, from here you can access the game itself or it's Official Website and Bulletin Board. Unlike the first set of games, this area does not get updated nearly as often but does contain useful information about the game.


 * Log In: Log into The World
 * Official Site: Obtain information on the games backstory, character types, factions etc.
 * Official Forum: Contains few but some important posts througout this story. If there is new information, a flashing NEW icon will appear beside the Official Forum selection, the same for new posts. Threads containing important info will adorn a red !.
 * Quit: Brings you back to the Altimit OS desktop.

Mail Station
Moving one to the right allows access to your E-Mail, Greeting Cards, and Member Addresses (the thing you need to add people to your party). Most of the story information will be brought to you by way of the E-Mail, as such you will check this section often.

New E-Mails will again have a flashing NEW icon beside them, with important E-Mails with a red exclamation mark. E-Mails you are capable of replying to will allow you to interact with your party members and possibly increase their affection towards you.

The Member Address menu shows all your current contacts, and the Red and Blue orbs denote their affection level from Red 0 to 5 (0 to 5 mean the number of smaller orbs which circle around the larger one) and Blue 0 to 3, with Blue 3 being the highest.

News Capture
Has information about what is going on in the real world, with the most interesting tidbits being the Online Jack videos. Some news will be promotions for other video games, everyday accessories or news common to what we have today.

No story progression will be found in this section, so it is not necessary to go through it.

Community Forum
Acting like a typical forum, this section sometimes has posts by your party members or other people which you can reply to. If the posts are by members of your party, selecting the proper reply will increase their affection towards you.

If you do not wish to read the entire thread, simply press psx: T to open all posts in a typical forum manner. Any Keywords will automatically be added to your Bookmarks when you close the page.


 * The World: Contains forum posts pertaining to the world. The rest of story progression and keyword acquisition will be found in this section of the boards. Check it whenever there is a NEW symbol. Sometimes the game will allow you to reply to posts, as with the Abyss Quest. Posts that are important have a red exclamation mark.


 * Crimson VS: Forum threads about the card game Crimson VS. Unfortunately inactive in the first version of this game, this forum plays a very unimportant role.


 * News: Comments on current happenings in the real world. Not necessary reading, but sometimes has threads which you can reply to.


 * Rumors: Tidbits of information pertaining to rumors about "The World" and it's affects on the real-world inhabitants. This forum plays a very small role.
