* ''TalesOfSymphonia'' has an interesting variation on TheLostWoods in the elven forest, in that the screens aren't identical, but taking the wrong path will put you on a different screen completely at random. Fortunately, the guiding critter in this Type 4 isn't hard to find and activate. The correct path also never changes, so you can ignore the critter entirely if you've played it before.
