The Treasure Gauge is a very reliable device that helps with tracking down every treasure in the game, no matter if is out in the open, an enemy has it or it is buried. When it is in the Exploration Kit, a gauge appears on the [[HUD]]. In it, there is a needle that wiggles continuously when a treasure is in the current field or cave, and the closer the current leader is to a treasure, the farther to the right it goes, and the harder it beeps.
