what is the pattern in this eclectic group of creature tags? well... they all have internal memos connected to them which imply they were meant to depict a creature that wasn't included in the final game!
The tiger puffer tag's memo reads "イソギンチャク", or "sea anemone"
The Kidako moray tag's memo reads "ウミウシ", or "sea slug"
The longtooth grouper's tag memo reads "グッピー", or "guppy"
The Japanese spider crab tag's memo reads "クリオネ", or "sea angel"
The giant isopod tag's memo reads "タコ", or "octopus"
The Moorish idol tag's memo reads "ヒトデ", or "starfish"
The red sea bream tag's memo reads "ほら貝", or "Triton's trumpet" (a large species of sea snail)
The polka-dot stingray tag's memo reads "ホタテ貝", or "Japanese scallop"
The salmon tag's memo reads "レアクリオネ(青)" or "rare sea angel (blue)"

Say hello to Cheddar the common octopus! Thanks to her chromatophores, she can hide in plain sight or put on a brilliant display. Find Cheddar in our Tropical Pacific Gallery during your next visit. 🧀
