Trial Mode
Trial Mode is an addition to the International Zodiac Job System (IZJS) and Zodiac Age versions of the game which offer you more difficult battles besides the end game content. The last Stages (specifically 95-100) are some of the most difficult battles in the game.
You can choose to partake in Trial Mode at any point in the game and any of the items that you steal or that you obtain from treasure chests will be carried over to the regular game. Thus, the Trial Mode can be used to level up your characters quickly to such a degree that it makes the regular story mode extremely easy. It is advised that you avoid Trial Mode and its rewards during your first playthrough of the game as it simply makes the game too easy.
You will be given the option to save your game after completing 10 Stages (IE at the end of Stage 20, 30, etc.)
