Boss Kitty is the Showa Town chain that ends with a general-knowledge quiz. The last quest asks for an Orange Marble, and the only way to get one in the whole game is to pass Boss Kitty's quiz. Players who reached that point saw the marble listed in the Quest Log with no explanation, and the dialogue box simply closed. This page explains the chain and the quiz.
The chain
| Step | Quest | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Scarred Kitty | Level 40. Fraidy Cat wants one Pet Food for a scarred kitty. Pet Food costs 30 Vesos from pet-supply stores such as Doofus in Henesys. |
| 2 | Sakura's Crying | Talk to Sakura in Showa Town. |
| 3 | Sakura's Request | Sakura sends you to Boss Kitty. |
| 4 | Learning to Speak the Kitty Language | Boss Kitty sends you back to Fraidy Cat. |
| 5 | I should talk to the Boss Kitty in kitty language. | Fraidy Cat sends you to Boss Kitty again. |
| 6 | Dealing with Boss Kitty | Boss Kitty explains the deal: answer his questions and the Orange Marble is yours, but you must bring him 300 Fried Chicken first. He says every wrong answer costs another 300, but see the quiz below. |
| 7 | Sakura, the Kitty, and the Orange Marble | Win the Orange Marble from Boss Kitty's quiz and give it to Sakura. |
Each step must be completed before the next appears. If a step seems to be missing, check that you finished the one before it.
The quiz
- Accept the last quest from Boss Kitty, then talk to him again. The quiz only runs while that quest is open and while you do not already hold an Orange Marble.
- Confirm that you are ready. The first time, Boss Kitty takes 300 Fried Chicken up front. Fried Chicken is sold by several town stores for about 209 to 228 Vesos each, so the fee is about 63,000 Vesos or more. You need a free ETC slot for the marble before he will take the chicken.
- He asks five questions, drawn at random from a pool of eleven, each with three options in a fixed order.
- One wrong answer ends the attempt. Your 300 Fried Chicken stay paid: talk to him again and the next attempt starts without taking more chicken.
- Answer all five right and he hands over the Orange Marble. Take it to Sakura for the dark scrolls.
Different from the original game Unlike the original game, a wrong answer does not cost another 300 Fried Chicken. You pay once, and the payment is used up only when you pass and receive the Orange Marble.

Common problems
- "Boss Kitty asked if I was ready, I said yes, and the box closed with no quiz."
- Fixed. Two quests of the chain were missing (the one that introduces him and the one that explains the price), and the quiz itself was not in the game. Both are in now, and the quiz runs when you talk to him with the last quest open.
- "He wants an Orange Marble but I got no dialogue about it."
- Step 6 explains it. If you skipped ahead in the log, go back to Boss Kitty and talk until quest 6 is done.
- "He says I do not have enough."
- He needs 300 Fried Chicken in your bag, all at once, for your first attempt. Fewer than 300 is refused. After a failed attempt he does not ask again.
- "He refuses because my inventory is full."
- Make room in the ETC tab. He checks before he takes the chicken.
- "Boss Kitty says his paws are full and gives my chicken back."
- The payment could not be saved, so no question was drawn and nothing was spent. Talk to him again in a moment.
