Community:Deleting Adventure Log Data
Adventure Logs, also known as Travel Logs, Footprint of Adventure, and so on, are a gameplay element in the Mystery Dungeon Franchise. While some games allow the players to delete their entire save files, others only delete the actual world state and not the Adventure Log data.
This creates an issue for players who want the sense of accomplishment of filling out their Adventure Log and related achievements themselves, or who want accurate stats.
This manual will detail methods to overwrite data for the affected games, as there's currently no known way to do so under normal circumstances.
