Lil Cactus is a strange creature you'll meet in Chapter One of Visions Of Mana. He hides himself all over the world and this guide will show you all the locations you can find him.
Unlike most objects in Visions Of Mana, Lil Cactus does not show up on your map overview, making him really tough to find out in the wild! However, he does have a little sound effect that can alert you to his presence, especially when he is clinging to walls and cliffedges.
When you interact with Lil Cactus, he will drop a diary page that you can view in the Guides section of the main menu.
