Story

Artwork 3DS Gatekeeper Trio.png

After Tibby and the player help Dieter in Machine Land, they come across the Gatekeeper Trio who block their path. They force the player to Practice playing Coin Toss to learn the rules, then they each present a Trial of the game of varying difficulty, and challenge charge:

After clearing one of the Trials, the trio open the gate to Citrus Land. Additionally, Rupert interrupts to announce that Challenge Land and the Shop are now open.

The player can always go back and try the other Trials. The player can replay cleared Trials for free. If the player spends 30 Coins without clearing any of the trials, the Gatekeeper Trio allow them to continue anyway.

If the player clears all three Trials, they unlock the Endless Game for Coin Toss at the Museum.

Dialogue

The player is given a choice to play the game now, or to return later. This section presents the dialogue if the player chooses no the first time, and returns later. Also included is the dialogue if the player clears all three Trials, and the one if they have to skip it.

Intro

Gatekeeper Trio
YOU HAVE ARRIVED.

Gatekeeper Trio
WELCOME TO THE
FIRST GATE.
Gatekeeper Trio
WE ARE THE GATEKEEPER
TRIO
.
Paprika
If you would pass this
way, young traveler...
Paprika
you must select one of
us to challenge...
Paprika
and pass a test of skill,
cunning, and courage.
Saffron
Yeah! And it'll be
super hard!
Saltwater
Saffron, we've talked
about this.
Saltwater
Paprika is the one who's good
at being scary and ominous.
Saffron
Man! I never get to do
the ominous part!
Paprika
Ahem! Be that as it may...

Paprika
Each of us administers a
test of different difficulty.
Paprika
And, along with the difficulty
you choose...
Paprika
there is the matter of the
challenge charge!
Saffron
You gotta pay us! Give
us all your coins!
Saltwater
Quiet, Saffron!

Paprika
You must be able to
trust in your own abilities.
Paprika
With self-knowledge, you will
select the proper test to take.
Paprika
You should also know that
I, the mighty Paprika...
Paprika
prefer a courageous spirit
over one who plays it safe.
Gatekeeper Trio
ARE YOU PREPARED FOR
THE CHALLENGE?

Not now.

Paprika
What? Really?

Paprika
You will not even try?

Paprika
Then you may not pass.

Gatekeeper Trio
GATHER YOUR COURAGE
AND RETURN AGAIN.

Again

Gatekeeper Trio
SO YOU HAVE RETURNED.

Gatekeeper Trio
ARE YOU PREPARED FOR
THE CHALLENGE?

You bet!

Paprika
Excellent!

Paprika
First, you must practice.

Paprika
You must begin by learning
the rules.
Gatekeeper Trio
NOW, SHOW US WHAT
SKILLS YOU POSSESS!

Post-Practice

Paprika
Do you understand the
challenge before you?
Paprika
Then it is time to embrace
that challenge.
Gatekeeper Trio
NOW, CHOOSE. HOW
GREAT IS YOUR COURAGE?

Clear

Gatekeeper Trio
IMPRESSIVE.

Gatekeeper Trio
WE WILL LET YOU PASS
THROUGH THE FIRST GATE.

Endless Game

Gatekeeper Trio
WHAT IS THIS?!

Gatekeeper Trio
YOU HAVE CLEARED EACH
OF OUR TRIALS.
Gatekeeper Trio
NO ONE HAS EVER DONE
THAT BEFORE. LIKE, EVER.
Paprika
...So I guess that calls
for some kind of reward.
Paprika
If you go to Coin Toss inside
the museum...
Paprika
we've added the Endless Game!

Gatekeeper Trio
YOU MAY NOW FLIP
SIMULATED COINS FOREVER.

Auto Clear

Gatekeeper Trio
...

Saltwater
Hey, listen.

Saltwater
I've been here for a while,
and I can't help noticing...
Saltwater
You're having a hard time
with this one, huh?
Saltwater
It's OK. This thing is supposed
to be fun, after all.
Saltwater
I can tell you've been trying
hard, and I appreciate it.
Saltwater
We're gonna let you through
this gate as a special exception.
Saffron
Hey, Saltwater! What are
you saying?!
Saffron
We're getting lots of coins
from this one!
Paprika
Saffron! We've talked
about this.
Saffron
Sorry. You're right.

Paprika
That's all right.

Paprika
We're not monsters, and it
IS supposed to be fun.
Paprika
...But!

Paprika
You'd better be ready next
time we see you!
Saltwater
It's settled, then.

Saltwater
Good luck with your journey
onward!
Gatekeeper Trio
FAREWELL FROM THE
GATEKEEPER TRIO. BYE-BYE.
