Hi! I'm Clement Chan and this is yet another Guide I've written, after the
exciting RPG called Evolution. I hope this guide will help you a lot through
the game, fighting bosses and etc. as some of them may be confusing and
difficult.
I hate to say this but my FAQ will contain spoilers, which mean, that some
of the story line will be exposed at certain parts. Read this only if you are
really, really stuck or just want to know the whole walkthrough.

[1.1] About Evolution 2 : Far Off Promise
-------------------------------------
This time, Sting surprises us again with Evolution 2, supposedly a sequel
for Evolution. The first version, which is in Japanese is released a few
months after Evolution and the english version for Evolution 2 was in the
year 2000.
As this game is an RPG, most of you will already know the basic concept for
all RPGS. You know, HP, MP, magic and the usual battle system against all
enemies but this game has slightly different concept, to have FP, TP and
Talent.
Whatever it is, this game is longer than Evolution with a story line
targeted on Linear with one extra character, Carcano the bandit together with
Mag, Linear, Chain, Gre and Pepper. This Dreamcast game uses Dreamcast's
hardwares and they function really well. A really exciting RPG after
Evolution appears once more.

[1.3] Review
-------------------------------------
If you want to get this game or still doubt Evolution 2's capabilities, read
this review and decide on your hard-earned money whether this game meets your
needs.
Evolution 2 stands out completely as a terrifically cool sequel to its older
brother, Evolution. Despite many bashes it got from many other reviews, it's
actually one game that I find extremely exciting with an intriguing story
line which made you want to know more about it. Furthermore, lots of new
special features which made Evolution 2 a more fun game to play.
Graphics - 10
What can you say about the graphics? They're interestingly cool with sharper
and clearer graphics compared to Evolution. Very detailed graphics, colourful
pictures and scenery, added with nice, modeled background make this game
better. The rendered characters themselves are certainly great to look at.
Enemies at least now have better and scarier looks instead of fighting
against insects always.
The colours are managed accordingly and the lighting effects are used more
often already. At almost all ruins you'll notice the new feature added. Ah,
Sting has really done a great job creating Evolution 2. The FMV sequences,
set at certain parts of the game are definitely nice with the combination of
several graphical elements. Realistic.
Music - 10
Thankfully enough, Sting has done it again by enhancing the background music,
making them suitable at each right moments. If you're a rapid player of
Evolution, you're sure to notice the difference in the music. Moreover, the
clear and realistic sound effects of explosions, hits and others are better
than before. Best of all, the remaining voices of each characters could be
heard at last, including cute Linear. Most of the time (during dialogues and
automatic sequences), you will hear them though they're in Japanese.
Gameplay - 10
More than a sequel! Evolution 2 has been added with more features with a
refreshing new look to it that reflects the capabilities of Dreamcast and
Sting, for producing this type of RPG. Not that I want to say that Evolution
is now not a nice game all together but Evolution 2, you know, it's longer
and fun.
As a normal RPG would have, you'll expect to find HP and all other similar
stuffs. This game follows almost the same as Evolution, having a Cyframe, a
type of weapon that adventures would use, special attacks which would drain
FP out together with a new option to the game, Talent. Talent will
automatically upgrade to a better one when you use it more often without
telling you what it has upgraded into. The downside is, some characters'
talents are restricted to a certain number of times while some can be used
always but must be 'recharged' first.
More types of parts for the Cybernetic Frame (better know as Cyframe
throughout the game) which an extra attack for all characters which you can
also get but harder. In order to learn new skills, you'll need to use TP,
which are automatically earned throughout the battles. This new enhancement
makes the attack much stronger and more effective against new enemies.
Fortunately, Sting has decided to remove the 'automatically generated ruins'
through the game which made ruins more easily to be navigated. Only one part
of the game which has this old type of feature, the Tower of Despair, a
special tower created for you to practice and upgrade your skills here. The
floors will be much higher the more ruins you've been and conquered and at
the highest floor, you're sure to get a special item, be it a special part
for your Cyframe or just a cool accessory of item.
Talk about accessory, you can now equip two instead of one as restricted
before. Whenever you buy your items, you can see whether it will upgrade your
status or downgrade yours instead of telling after you had bought it as in
Evolution. As you're now in the new town of Museville, you can buy special
tickets for the lucky draw by using Prehistoric Coins which could be found in
ruins and battles against enemies.
You can now take more items, as the adventure goes on. You can even combine
items into much more powerful ones or just make it into one full set in order
to save space for other items. Find more appraisal items and the correct ones
can be combined into Rare Appraisal Items which you can sell in a higher
price and get more money. When you had finished the game, you'll see how you
rank yourself, whether, S, A, B, C or lower so collecting appraisal items,
what level you are now, how many battles you've gone through and etc. affects
this.
There is also one new character you can play as, other than your good old
main character, Mag Launcher, the mysterious girl Linear, the Launcher's
family butler Gre, Mag's rival Chain and Pepper. So many choices, you'll find
it hard to choose who to select into your party (only three in one party) as
every character has their own special abilities and attacks.
Story - 10
If you had played Evolution, you'll understand what had happened and what
battles they had gone through before. If you don't want to buy Evolution just
to know the story, you'll know it here. Just a brief one what had happened
(some from Evolution 2 official website), in Evolution, Eugene from the Eight
Empire Army head to Pannam Town in search of Evolutia, the legendary Cyframe.
Eugene kidnapped Linear and found out that Evolutia was really Linear (then
why can't we choose Linear in her Evolutia form?)! Mag, Gre and his other
best friends, Chain and Pepper crash-landed on Eugene's ship and went for a
huge battle. Linear used the power of Evolutia to restore Mag back to life
and rescued him.
It has been a half-year after the riot with the Eight Empire army. The
Society field office in Pannam Town received a request from the Society
museum in Museville, which is located far south of the Palldian continent.
The request was to send the best adventurer in Pannam. Never one to avoid
challenge, Mag Launcher rises to the call and boards a transcontinental train
with his friends, Linear, Gre and Chain to heard to Museville. Uncertain as
to why he has been called, Mag's new adventure begins the moment his train
leaves the station, against a new, secret enemy with a struggling story line
of Evolutia!
Replay Value - 7
Replay? I won't expose any spoilers but Sting has managed to do something in
order to let you replay the whole game again, while accomplishing a new task
(if you are an Evolution player, you'll guess it right) that you haven't and
won't do when you start a new game. When you replay all together, this don't
really fit in the near-ending story line but oh well, if you've got nothing
to do, you can re-sharpen your fighting skills again. The downside? You'll
start at Level 6 once more, no matter how high your level is before.
Overall - 10
A fun and longer sequel and I've always made the right choice on Dreamcast
games. Sting managed to surprise us once more with its English and Japanese
version of this game (mind you, get the English one!) and better English
translations with almost no grammar and spelling mistakes. As I had explained
thoroughly to this game, grab enough money out of your wallet and you'll see
that Evolution 2 don't really burn your pocket.
Mag
-----
- Better and enhanced graphics!
- Voices in Japanese! Cool!
- Longer, better and super sequel!
Launcher
-----
- Ruins, ruins, ruins...
- Few bosses are a bit hard.
- Replaying it is a bit disappointing.

=============================================================================
Evolution 2 controls have been changed slightly but still, you could easily
get used to it (except for me. I keep figuring out how to bring up the menu
until after the first ruin). Anyway, at this section, you'll find out the
basic thing that you need to understand before you're steered away to the
real game.
-------------------------------------
[2.1] Controls
-------------------------------------
You can still change the default controls if you don't like the feel of the
real ones. Here's the list of each buttons do (for the default controls).

-------------------------------------
[2.4] Saving
-------------------------------------
Saving is slightly different than Evolution. Instead of searching for a save
point, you can now save anywhere by going to the menu except in ruins (which
you must search for a save point there).
In the Tower of Despair, you cannot save at all except using the pause saving
by selecting Save & Exit when you go up or down the levels there.
-------------------------------------
[2.5] Combining Items
-------------------------------------
Yes, you can combine certain items to make it to more powerful or into one
set to save some space for other items. Example, you can combine two Naolins
together to create Naolin Set [2] and combine another Naolin with it to make
Naolin Set [3]. Some items like Red Viper cannot be combined. Wind-protection
Pack combined with another Wind-protection Pack will give you Typhoon Shield.
Try it! It's really exciting to see what items you can form.

The real walkthrough is beyond this section. Find the parts which you're
stuck and try the tip tht I gave to see whether it works. If you don't, drop
by an e-mail to me at clementchan@pd.jaring.my and you'll see your reply
quickly. Also, please remember that this walkthrough is based through my
experience and fighting bosses are based on which characters I choose. If you
want to follow my FAQ easily, use the characters I choose.
-------------------------------------
[3.1] Beginning
-------------------------------------
You'll start by a nice music together with a train chugging around. Next,
you'll see Mag running after the train because he's late. The emergency alarm
will then rang and Nina will explain that there are many bandits around this
area and the alarm has been installed for safety precaution.
Once you get control of Mag and his party, run towards to the front (by going
to your right) and you'll see Chain. Chain will say (when you talk to her the
second time) that she's not the one who cause the alarm. Go back to the left
and you'll get to see an automatic sequence of Carcano.
Fight with him. It's an easy battle so just slash him and his two henchmen.
I'll be surprised if you lose in the battle. Right after that, head back to
the tram that you came from and talk to Nina. Apparently, Carcano has ran off
with his real objective, an appraisal item that was going to be taken to
Museville while distracting Mag.
Once your reach the town, you might want to wander about, try some controls
to get used to the basics of the game (and the town, it's most important that
you don't get lost). There will be a mini-map to show you where you are and
in your first day here, you can't buy any items or weapons. Occasionally, you
may see Julia, the little puppy.
After you are quite satisfied, head back to the hotel, it's opposite the bar
and is orange in colour with a fountain. Enter it, talk to Gre and then the
manager. Select 'Let's hit the sack!' and you'll be asleep.
-------------------------------------
[3.2] Day Two: Blaze Ruins
-------------------------------------
The next morning, you'll see Linear at the hotel garden. Yurka will appear
and introduced himself and have a little talk with her. Then, he'll fly away
and be gone (ain't that mysterious now to you?).
Head to the Society (on the map, it's at the north) and talk to Lisa, the
receptionist. Go upstairs and head to the second door you passed. Professor
Whitehead and Nina will start talking to you and if you had played Evolution
before and have the save file in your VMU, he'll say about how high your
level is in the previous game.
After getting your assignment (and through lots of 'ehems' from Whitehead),
go down and talk to Lisa again. You might want to hear about the exhibits
which is the door on your left and right or hear more about Blaze Ruins.
Choose your character, whether Gre or Chain and buy some weapons, equipments
and items for yourself (and upgrade your Cyframes too if you want. The shop
is south and near the entrance, you'll need to jump on stairs to enter it).
Buy Wind-protection Pack too but it's not a must.
I recommend that you head to the Tower of Despair which is located on the
west (if you don't want to, it's all right) to get lots of TP and items from
enemies but very few experience points. On every ruin you go, PLEASE bring at
least one Escape Incense (buy it at the Item Shop). If you don't want to do
so, it's fine.
Blaze Ruins - 5 Floors
-----
Secret items to obtain: Map of Blaze Ruins and Old Doll.
This level is pretty straightforward. You can demolish stones to get hidden
treasure boxes. On Floor 3, fall down a brown hole and you'll gain access to
a secret place in Floor 2. Grab the items there, Map of Blaze Ruins, Old Doll
and other curative items.
Look out for treasure boxes and try and fight every single enemy to gain lots
of experience points and TP. Actually, there is not much to say. Once you
reach Floor 5, save the game there and head towards to the transporter to
bring you back to the town to get full HP and FP. Then, head to Blaze Ruins
at Floor 5. Press open the button (slightly hidden) and walk towards the door
to fight a boss.
Boss - Storm Bird
-----
Mystery Sound - Wouldn't hurt you but you need to be careful because it will
sleep you (?).
Gust - Will attack your whole row.
Wind Breath - Will attack your whole row and throw you to the back row.
If you have Magna Combo, use it on this enemy. Any of your special attacks
will do very well against it. Linear should cure (Serious First Aid work
perfectly here) and use Protection Spell and Strength Spell. There is not
much to say as this boss is really easy. Just continue using special attacks
and if your FP runs out, use normal attacks. Repeat until it dies.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you finished fighting, Mag will be happy and smiling all over with
Linear(what happen to the other character?). Suddenly, the monster came back
to live but a blast hit it and it flew to the other side. It's Pepper!
Apparently, she had been asked to search the ruin too but since Mag got there
first, he'll take the treasure.
A short FMV will take place and he'll get the Lapis orb. You'll be
automatically transported back to the Society and Professor Whitehead will
ask you to go down to the receptionist to receive your reward. If you use
Chain, she'll take some of your share but if you use Gre before, he would not
touch it (remember, he is the Launcher's family butler).
Sell any appraisal items you have and if you suspect any of them can be
combined (but cannot be combined because you have missed some of them), keep
it. Once you're finished, head back to the hotel and have a good night sleep.
Keep any items you don't use or sell the useless one.
Linear will play with the ocarina and Gre and Chain will talk to each other.
Some parts of it is really funny but I don't know whether it's humourous to
you. Anyway, Mag will appear and the whole talk is cut off.
-------------------------------------
[3.3] Day Three: Forest Depths
-------------------------------------
Head to the Society, grab your assignment and choose your characters (I
prefer Pepper the most. She's really powerful of the lot). By the way, if
you're scratching your head over the Old Doll that you got from Blaze Ruins,
you can make use of it.
Go to the weapon shop and talk to the guy inside it. He'll want to change
your Old Doll for a Fashionable Chain. Head to the Item Shop and talk to the
person inside it. He'll trade it for Meissen Ornament. Now, head to the
Lottery Shop and talk to Anita. She'll exchange your Meissen Ornament for a
Dowsing Stone. Now, you can check secret rooms by using your Jump Pack and
VMU. Cool, huh? After getting it, head for Forest Depths.
Forest Depths - 10 Floors
-----
Special item to obtain: Map of Forest Depths
Forest Depths is a different ruin as it is almost like a jungle. The first
floor will contain jet parts for Chain. There will be boulders and try to
grab all the four treasures there.
After that, the rest is up to you. Enemies can be real difficult but just
attack with all your special attack you've got. If you ever have the urge to
exit, do so with your Escape Incense and buy a new one later on. Then, head
all the way up to the tenth floor and exit the ruin (as explained in the
Blaze Ruins).
You'll find yourself back at Museville and head back again to Forest Depths.
Save there and prepare for another battle with the boss.
Boss - Blocker
-----
Spiral Upper - A powerful attack against one character.
Chest Beam - An equally powerful attack against one character.
Smoke Bomb - A smoke attack against all characters.
Basically, this boss use the same principal as when you attack Storm Bird in
Blaze Ruins. Use your most powerful attack (not Dive Punch or Mach Punch),
preferably Magna Rave, Magna Combo or Magna Punch and your other 'optional'
character's powerful attack.
Linear should always cure your party and use Protection Spell and Strength
Spell (together with Agility Spell, if you had learned it). Attack this boss
until it bangs itself head first into a wall and exploded.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finish that, talk to Whitehead and collect your reward from Lisa. Pepper or
Chain will take some of your money while Gre wouldn't. After that, exit the
Society and go out.
Then, you'll see a cut-scene of Whitehead and Yurka talking about the Orbs
that they are collecting. Now, you can go back to the hotel and keep any
unwanted items or sell them. Then, sleep for the day.
Yurka will appear once more and destroy the balcony flower. Linear will use
her healing powers and the whole row of flowers are alive again! After some
more talk about Linear giving power to Yurka, he'll go away.
-------------------------------------
[3.4] Day Four: Crypt Maze
-------------------------------------
Next morning, head to the Sociery once more and get your assigment at Crypt
Maze, a cold freezing place. Select your character and buy some weapons,
items or upgrade your Cyframes. You may want to get Cammies, to protect
against fire and ice.
Head to Mrs. Valeria's house (next to the Item shop) and talk to Veronica.
She'll give you a small quiz so do enter it. "What's the name of the lady at
the Loterry shop?" In case you don't know, it's Anita. Answer it correctly
and you'll get a Coconut as your prize (cures 650 HP!).
As usual (as what I always did), you can choose to go to the Tower of Despair
to get the powerful item on the highest level and to gain more TP.
Crypt Maze - 15 Floors (Basement)
-----
Special item to obtain: Map of Crypt Maze.
Be prepared as this place is way slippery at certain points and a bit foggy.
Enemies are bigger and harder than ever (depends on your characters' levels).
There's one floor that is crammed full with enemies (I guess around Basement
Floor 10). Find your way at the south and then go up the stairs. At the other
floor, head east go down the stairs and continue your way.
Beware of Rhinoceros and Super Horn. They will unleash powerful attacks but
their agility is quite low so attack them with your special attacks
(espeacially those agility-lowering enemies). Find your way to Floor 15, exit
to Museville, save if you like and re-enter the ruin. Look for the door,
enter it and prepare to fight the boss.
Boss - Pomornik
-----
Vice Press - This will sort of 'squash' one of your characters to
make them long and thin and hurt them at the same
time.
Freeze Volley - Pomornik will unleash ice attack that affects all
characters.
Auto-Repair Function - This will cure Pomornik's life a little bit (rather
than Prince Eugene's Naolin 3000 in Evolution).
Basically, use the same ol' technique. Attack, cure, attack, cure, attack
cure. Linear should cure whenever it's half of the life already and use
Protection Spell, Strength Spell, Agility Spell and other useful cures. Mag
should use Magna Rave, it's hyper effective against a boss like this.
Using the optional character like Gre, Chain and Pepper helps too. Gre may
use Critical or any Mag-only type powers. He can also help to cure if it's
not Linear's turn or extremely urgent matters. Chain, on the other hand, can
help Mag by attacking while Pepper can do the same.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right after defeating Pomornik, Mag will take the treasure and the almost-
same scene will appear again (what a cool-looking robot!). Take the Amber orb
back to the Society and take your most-deserved hard-earned money. After all,
you go through those tough battles and it's worth it.
Now, talk to Nina and as usual, she'll give you her long rant about
conquering the ruins. Then, she will ask Mag whether he heard anything from
Pepper. Choose between "No, what do you mean?" and "Oh, that...?". None of
them are really funny but if you like, you can answer "Oh, that...?" and she
will reply "How embarassing!"
If you want to know what's happen, exit the Society and talk to Pepper and
ask "How are you feeling?". She'll then tell you about it. Ask her yourself.
I'm not going to reveal what she had said exactly.
Then, head back to the Hotel, keep any items or sell them and hit the sack.
You'll see a cut-scene where Linear is hanging out at the balcony. Mag will
be there and ask her to go back so that she won't catch a cold (what a caring
person).
-------------------------------------
[3.5] Day Five: Carcano
-------------------------------------
Just like any other days, wake up and head for the Society. Go upstairs and
talk to Whitehead. He'll tell you that Carcano had put off a robbery and
stole all the Society Appraisal items (the ones that Mag have been getting).
Apparently, a bug had been put at the items and they can just generally say
that he's in Pine Village.
Buy any powerful items and weapons that may suit you, upgrade your Cyframes
and most importantly, go to the Tower of Despair if you want to. You can now
go up to Level 40. Go to the entrance (the place that you can choose whether
you want to go to other ruins or not).
Top-left will be a selection for Pine Village. Select it and go there. Once
you reach there, you may want to press Y to go to first-person view mode.
Now, you must find Carcano.
From where you stand near the entrance, head right and climb the stairs to
the top. Head a little bit to the left and you'll see a ladder which you can
climb. It's located in the middle against a wall. Enter the door and you'll
have a nice little cut-scene where Carcano sent them down to the basement for
a trap!
Bandit's Trap - 3 Floors (Basement)
-----
Important item(s) to obtain: Map of Bandit's Trap and Recovery Blast Level 1
(Pepper)
There will be a Level 26 enemy, a scorpion-like and SaberLynx. Most of all,
try and keep your Level about 30 and you'll find fighting with Carcano and
the other enemies easier.
You must remember now that you have to go UP instead of down (to find your
way out, of course). Basement 3, where you first start, will have a locked
door so you need to go all the way up and find the key. In Basement 2, you'll
also find Recovery Blast and Map of Bandit's Trap. Remember to equip Recovery
Blast to Pepper, it's important and crucial later on.
Anyway, just fight your way right to the top, get the key, go all the way
down (easiest way is to jump down a hole) and you'll reach Basement 3. Use
the key and open the locked door (all automatic, you just need to press the A
button at the door). Then, go all the way up back while fighting against
enemies.
Save your game at the savepoint nearby and press the A button at the ladder
to go up. Prepare for the battle against Carcano!
Boss - Carcano (Level 35)
-----
Wire Drill - An attack which will pull your character to the front row
while hurting him or her.
Drill Attack - A powerful drill attack against one character.
Boss - Bandit Henchmen 1 and 2
-----
Attacks:
Death Punch - A powerful death blow against one character.
If you've learned Magna Reverse or Grand Beam, use it against your three
enemies. It's important to kill the two Henchmen first and then concentrate
on Carcano himself as the Death Punch, delivered by the two Henchmen could
lower your life a lot.
This strategy is for characters Level 32 and higher (from my personal
experience). Actually, one Magna Reverse added with Pepper's Grand Beam is
enough to kill the Henchmen (if you're on Level 32 or higher). Then, finish
Carcano off with Magna Rave and Super Beam.
If you don't have Magna Reverse at all or even Grand Beam OR Level 31 and
lower, it's going to be a bit difficult. You'll need to concentrate attacking
the Henchmen and then Carcano (or eitherwise, as I killed Carcano first
before the Henchmen once). If you use Gre or Chain, just attack the enemies
normally, while curing and using useful attacks such as Critical and etc.
It's not at all a hard enemy, just depending on the Level you are now and
special attacks that you've learned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After fighting, you'll have a short talk with Carcano. Then, Mag will hear
someone calling him (I'm positive that you know who's the person who called
him). Head outside (it's almost dark out there) and walk all the way to the
entrance as Mag will keep hearing and talking.
Later on, you'll see a cut-scene with Mag and Yurka. He'll ask you stop being
together with Linear and she herself will appear. She'll prevent Yurka from
hurting Mag further but will ask Mag to 'stop talking bad things of Yurka'.
Mag will feel surprised towards Linear and feel a little cold about it. Now
everyone will have the wrong idea (this proves out but talking to people at
Museville later on).
Anyway, you'll sleep at Carcano's hideout and awake the nice day. If you're
loaded with money, you may want to buy Appraisal items at one of the shop
there or buy any other accessories as they're not available anywhere. Return
to the entrance and you'll be automatically at the Society.
Chat with Professor Whitehead for a while and go down to get your reward.
Head back to the hotel and keep or sell any useless items that you got (like
Puriol and others). You may choose to take off any accessories or weapons off
Linear as you won't be able to use her later. Then, sleep for the day.
You'll see another cut-scene of Linear and Yurka talking together. Yurka will
tell Linear that she'll just be a load to Mag and ask her to leave him.
-------------------------------------
[3.6] Day Six: Yurka
-------------------------------------
In the morning, you'll see Gre running down the stairs (in a real funny way),
stating that Linear has disappeared!
Then, you'll have a long talk with Gre and Chain so head to the Society
afterwards (Prepare for a cut-scene between Linear, Yurka and Whitehead later
on). The door to the Society has been locked and Pepper will appear suddenly.
After some more discussion, Mag will decide to bring Carcano in.
