Baffle Boards (Japanese: ナゾのたてふだ Nazo no Tatefuda) is a mechanic that first appears in Yo-kai Watch 2. Scattered throughout the game world are hidden boards that are revealed using the Yo-Kai Lens, and appear on the radar with the question mark icon, similar to how hidden Yo-kai in the overworld are uncovered.

Overview[]

Once a Baffle Board is revealed, the player is given a Yo-kai quiz, and must guess the name of a Yo-kai after being given three clues. After correctly guessing the Yo-kai's name, the Baffle Board will create a Yo-kai Hot Spot (Japanese: 妖怪サークル Yōkai Sākuru) and become permanently visible without having to re-scan it.

The player must then befriend the corresponding Yo-kai if they haven't already, and call them onto the hot spot. Yo-kai that are traded away, dropped or crystalized cannot be called to the board. However, the player only needs access to the specific Yo-kai temporarily, so touch trades are a good way to unlock them. The summoned Yo-kai will then give the player access to a special feature or cause something else to happen to the surroundings.
