In Ōkamiden, rather than collecting Stray Beads to unlock the String of Beads and other items, the player must collect pieces of artwork from Issun. There are five sets of the paintings, each with ten parts to collect. They aren't collected from other characters' but rather hidden in treasure chests located in unexpected areas, or require a puzzle to be solved, or by just exploring the land. Each set is located in a certain group of areas, such as masterpiece set 1 being in Shinshu Field, Hana Valley, Kamiki Village, and Yakushi Village. Finding and completing each set unlocks an item such as the Peace Bell and Lucky Cat Paw. The Sunrise Spell and String of Beads are unlocked if all of them are completed, which Chibiterasu can then equip. Getting the items is not required, but can be helpful, such as getting more money than normal.
