Wanderer Rescue
Overview
Wanderer Rescue is a system where you can request help from other players up to 3 times if you collapse.
Rescue requests are made using the game's servers, or as a password you input manually.
For story dungeons, the rescuer simply has to send a Revival Grass or Undo Grass from Nekomaneki Village.
Other dungeons require the rescuer to enter and locate the collapsed player inside a dungeon.
(The dungeon will have the same seed, meaning items, map layout, enemies, etc. will be identical)
Once the collapsed player receives a revival spell, they can continue their adventure without item loss.
The rescuer will be rewarded with an item, rescue points, and can receive a thank you letter from the other player.
Switch / Steam versions have cross-platform rescues, and aren't region-locked.
※ Switch / Steam passwords are not compatible with the PS Vita version.

Method 1 - Internet
Send a rescue request to the game's server.
A 12 digit rescue number is displayed once sent, which you can share with others.
※ The rescue ID will be deleted from the server once fulfilled.
so always select "Category (Anyone)" when sending requests via Internet connection.
Method 2 - Password
Share a rescue request in the form of a 54 character password.
Less convenient, but the password never expires and works offline.
Often used to share dungeon seeds that have rare items, since it doesn't expire after a successful rescue.

Rescue Tips
- The dungeon will have the same seed, meaning items, map layout, enemies, etc. will be identical.
- This provides a significant advantage if the person who requested shares their notes.
- The target floor is freshly generated, and the collapsed target is always in a Monster House.
- If time of day changes after the Monster House is cleared, new monsters will surround the target.
- It's possible to rescue yourself using a different save file.
- Transient Staff sends the target next to the collapsed target.
- The floor is cleared of enemies when the person who requested receives the revival spell and continues.
- However, if there's a hostile shopkeeper, they'll still be present.
- Wandering NPCs like Madam Ateska can change the dungeon RNG.
