Easy experience
Go to the Desert area (immediately after getting off the boat) and equip the Girrafey animal orb. It will help you level up faster. This area is swarming with an endless supply of scorpions. Keep killing those scorpions repeatedly to level up faster. Note: You will level up based on how much damage you deal to a target, and not how many enemies you kill. This will require some time and patience.
Go to the point in the Lava World area where you need a sandwich to continue, but do not have a sandwich with you. Because you do not have a sandwich, enemies here will drop sandwiches when they are defeated. Do not pick up a sandwich and they will keep respawning. Keep defeating them to gain as much experience as desired. Note: this trick works best with low level characters.
Experience Farming
Using the Cardinal's boomerang, face the catfish boss. Find a spot where you aim at it while it rises and charge your boomerang. Release it as the boss rises so it becomes stuck on his back. Attack it continously to get a good amount of exp. Repeat as needed.
**There is a risk of a glitch that will happen while doing this trick. Return to the dashboard and launch the game again to fix**
Familiar Stat Bonuses
Certain familiars give you stat bonuses. Here is a list of these:
Go to the far left of the Ark where the door is locked (if you have not unlocked it already). Get directly next to the door, so that you can no longer go left. Jump, then immediately press Y, X, Y, X, Y, X (making sure you actually hit the door) until you reach Sherbert. This is a great way to save skill points to use on other attributes.
Gold Farming
In Cyclops Cave, there are 7 Gold bags near the broken down trolley. After you cleared the cave, return again.There will be no monsters to fight so keep repeating to farm gold.
Infinite Experience
Note: this trick works best with low level characters. In the Lava World area, there is a point where you need a sandwich to progress. If you don't have a sandwich, enemies will come and drop sandwiches when you defeat them. If you don't use the sandwich to progress, the enemies will keep on coming, allowing you to get as much experience as you want.
Insane Mode
Beat the game once with any character. After the ending credits and final maiden duel, a new path should be open south of the Barbarian Boss map. Entering will begin Insane Mode, a much tougher version of the original game.

Below are the names and locations of the nine items you must collect in the game in order to proceed.
Binoculars - Grab this item at the end of the Industrial Castle level, after slaying the boss.

Horn - After killing the Corn boss, one of the Peasants will give it to you.
