    In a nutshell, you would ride around on your chocobo and feed it a gyshal green and it would 'dig' for you and you'd have to follow the prompts to find the spot where something was hidden.
    Basically its "x" marks the spot, kind of treasure hunt.

    This one is from FF9, but its the same idea.

    Will reply to this thread with something read in one of the recent interviews, when the interviewer asked if we would eventually make our way to the southern isles this expac Yoshi said there is a hidden island we may visit if we are lucky enough. Draw conclusions as you may. Also FF9's version of hot and cold was vastly superior to that flop that was the mini game in FF11, visiting the chocobo forests and digging up chocographs which you could hunt down in the world map was very fun and completely in the spirit of ffxiv. As was Collecting Stellazio for the rich woman in Treno, and collecting Frogs in the Q marshes, I wouldn't mind ultra powerful items being introduced via that content and it would call people back into the world. Take RNG out and there is much more fun to be had.
