Overview

Post-game dungeon that's a bite-sized version of a classical unidentified items dungeon.
That sentence may sound similar to Yamakagashi Pass, but this dungeon is generally far easier.
Unidentified items are auto-narrowed down to 3 options, similar to Training Path of Inference,
but the number of items generated on the ground per floor isn't as plentiful in Kiki Island.
Overall, it's a nice place to visit to get some practice before going to Heart of Serpentcoil Island.

Strategy

General

The rate at which the monster table changes isn't vastly different from Serpentcoil Island,
but there are some rare encounters that aim to cause accidents like Mixer, Chow, and Cave Mamel.
Despite the events that play while progressing through the dungeon, there's no boss at the end,
so rushing to the stairs near the end won't come back to bite you unlike Yamakagashi Pass.

Companions like Asuka and Seki can also appear as Roamers, greatly lowering the difficulty.
Side note, but this is a decent place to register Monstercall Scroll in your notebook.

Farming Techniques

Mudkin Hunting (8-9F)

Masked Samurai and Mudkin both appear on 8-9F, so it's possible to hunt Lv3-4 Mudkins to level up.
This monster duo actually also appears on 12F, but Crossbowboy can interfere if attempted on 12F,
and Mixers can also spawn and cause accidents starting from 10F, so it's best to stick to 8-9F.
Water Ninja D or Metal Ninja D might interfere, but at least they aren't likely to level up.
Stand on the stairs so you can advance at any time when performing the technique.

Floor Guide

1-4F

Monsters aren't anything out of the ordinary for this game's standards, so check every room.
Note that Polygon Spinna (33 HP, 16 atk) is basically an upgraded Pumphantasm (23 HP, 16 atk).
Both of these monsters can be tough to handle without equipment, so be careful with inputs.
If you find a shield, consider having Nigiri Baby (17 HP, 8 atk) create some extra onigiri on 1-3F.
Otherwise, identify items quickly so that you aren't guessing if you end up in a bad situation.

5-9F

Monster attack stats are higher, so there's risk of collapsing if you don't manage resources well.
5F is quite dangerous - The table only has 3 monsters, so you can get swarmed by Karakuroids.
If you haven't found decent equipment yet, it might be worth advancing to 6F quickly.

Karakuroid (40 HP, 20 atk) has Swift 1 action speed, so it moves 2 times per turn and attacks once.
Masked Samurai (47 HP, 18 atk) revives as Ghost Samurai and levels up another enemy when slain.
Ghost Samurai (4 HP, 13 atk) can be instantly defeated by throwing a rock at it.
Hoppin' Hitter (32 HP, 22 atk) either nullifies or reflects projectiles and staff magic.
Scorpion (37 HP, 14 atk) lowers Current Strength by 1 when adjacent.

Ninjas, Mid Chintala (45 HP, 23 atk), and Hell Reaper (45 HP, 12 atk) appear starting on 8F.
Hell Reaper has Swift 2 action speed, meaning it moves and attacks 2 times per turn.
Fire Ninja D only appears on 8F, so you won't be able to grill Rotten Onigiri on 9F.

Otherwise, try to hunt Lv3 Mudsters between 8-9F using Masked Samurai and Mudkin,
and keep in mind that a Cave Mamel (5 HP, 100 atk) can spawn between 6-25F on rare occasions.
If you encounter a Cave Mamel in a hallway, use a staff or scroll since those have 100% accuracy.

10-14F

Bowboy (45 HP, 17 atk) and Crossbowboy (55 HP, 20 atk) appear on 10-12F, so collect arrows.
Bored Kappa (50 HP, 18 atk) also appears, so you can do so even without other items or pillars.
The dungeon is only 25F, so you don't need a ridiculous quantity - 100~200 arrows is plenty.

Stronger enemies like Metalhead (66 HP, 30 atk) and Master Hen (70 HP, 33 atk) appear from 13F.
It can be rough at first if you haven't leveled up much, but try to conserve items if possible.

That said, Mixer (78 HP, 39 atk, 29 def) can show up as a rare encounter between 10-25F.
It's the equivalent of a strong 25F monster in Serpentcoil Island showing up as early as 10F.
If you attempt to synthesize without an item like Sluggish Staff, you're likely going to collapse.
It's probably best to use an item like Paralyzing Staff to disable it and ignore it instead,
and remember that thrown items are ineffective until the Mixer has swallowed 2 items.

15-20F

Enemies are along the lines of Kibanuma Marsh and Firespew Mountain, but without monks.
Thiefwalrus (65 HP, 25 atk) has pretty high HP, so just focus on not getting items stolen.
If your level is low, hunt Master Hen (400 exp) while watching out for Minotaur (70 HP, 31 atk).
Otherwise, try to avoid losing strength due to Ghost Radish (40 HP, 18 atk)'s Poison Grass.
Ghost Radish can throw Poison Grass in a straight line 2 tiles ahead.

Chow (20 HP, 1 atk) appears between 15-25F which can result in monsters leveling up.
It has Swift 1 speed so it can run from enemies to some degree, but can still become cornered.
Chow always drops an item when defeated by the player, so hunt any that you happen to see.

It's quite rare, but if a Chow and Cave Mamel results in a Gitan Mamel, be very careful.
Gitan Mamel (20 HP, 100 atk, 999 def) has Swift 2 action speed, so wait for it inside a room,
then use an item like Dragon Grass, Knockback Staff, or Thunderbolt Staff to deal fixed damage.
If you don't have fixed damage items, just hope you don't see it while rushing to the stairs.

21-25F

It's recommended to rush to the stairs from this point until you clear the dungeon.
Notable threats include Skull Wizard and Super Gazer on 22-25F, Porko and Dartingfrog on 24-25F.

Skull Wizard (88 HP, 35 atk) can inflict Confused status from a distance among other effects.
Super Gazer (66 HP, 30 atk) can make you waste items and lock you in place with its hypnosis.
Dartingfrog (75 HP, 40 atk) doesn't let you run away once you're in range of its special attack.
Porko (65 HP, 36 atk) throws Porky's Rocks (20 damage) within a 5 tile radius.

Other monsters like Capt. Spearfish (100 HP, 39 atk) and Fire Ninja C (75 HP, 45 atk) also hit hard.
Considering you're right before the goal, there's really no reason to linger unless you're aiming
to 100% the Kiki Island dungeon's monster table.
