Final Fantasy X/Cactuar Minigame

In order to get Rikku's Mercury Sigil, you must first complete the Cactuar Minigame by finding 10 lost Cactuars.

Starting the Game
After gaining the Airship, go to the ../Sanubia Desert/ on Bikanel Island. Follow the path to the fourth screen (Sanubia Desert--West on the map). Go to the northeast, to a cliff overlooking the area with the sandstorm, and there should be a Cactuar Stone. Press psx: X to read it, and it will give you your first clue.

Way of the Gatekeepers
- It may look like fun and games, but the Gatekeepers are a proud race of warriors. - While they dislike combat, they will turn and face any enemy that takes their back. - Should you fail to sneak up on them they will realize they have over-estimated their enemy and depart in disgust. - Sneak up on the cactuars when their backs are turned to confront them. It's better that way, believe me.

Each cactuar you find, you will have to play a game of Red Light, Green Light to catch. Simply run toward them, and when the screen flashes Needletime! in Al Bhed, stop moving. When you successfully sneak up on them, you'll be forced into combat. Hint: This is a great time to catch your 10 Cactuars for the ../Monster Arena/.

Spheres
- Fail to catch the Gatekeeper unaware, and you'll obtain the Sphere del Perdedor! - Best the Gatekeeper and obtain his personalized sphere! - Collect lots of spheres to receive an award at the village.

If you win, you will receive that Cactuar's personalized Sphere. If you lose, you receive a Sphere del Perdedor. After receiving each Sphere, you will have to return to the Cactuar Stone for your next clue.

Tomay
- Duties: Fetching Water. Takes his time and, as a result, is often left behind. - A little dim.

Clue: ''Tomay's gone. Gone to fetch the water.''

Location: You can find Tomay at the first screen, Sanubia Desert - Oasis.

Time: 10.0 seconds

Course: You start off on a hill at the back left of the screen. Tomay is under a tree at the front right.

This one's easy. Simply run toward him when he isn't looking, and stop when he turns toward you. Just don't get stuck behind the hill you start on.

Rovivea
- Has no patience for certain dimwitted friends - Not a progressive thinker.

Clue: ''Rovivea's gone walkabout. Be back soon.''

Location: Second screen, Sanubia Desert - East. When you first enter from the third screen, you'll see a large section to the west. Rovivea is running around in there.

Time: 13.0 seconds

Course: Similar to Tomay, you start at the back. Rovivea is at the front.
