Tag Mode

Phantom Hourglass uses Tag mode to swap ship parts and treasures via DS 'tagging'. Tagging is being within range of another Gameboy DS, both systems must have Phantom Hourglass carts with Tag Mode in use.

Freedle of Mercay Island has boxes set up. Each player must put an item in any box and speak with Freedle to open Tag Mode. When you recieve a new treasure the magic boxes containing it will bulge and wiggle.

Warning
Tag mode will drain your battery faster than normal playing. This is because the DS will constantly seek the signal of another DS.
