Recruit Surfer Jay & Kraken-Chan in Like a Dragon

Embark on a swashbuckling adventure as Goro Majima, Captain of the Goro Pirates, in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*. Building your crew is key, and this guide will walk you through recruiting the unique Surfer Jay.

Recruiting Surfer Jay: A Step-by-Step Guide

Surfer Jay, a powerful recruit found in Honolulu, boasts superior base stats compared to earlier crew members. However, his recruitment requires a bit more legwork (or should we say, sea-work?). The order doesn't matter, but grabbing the necessary item in Madlantis first simplifies the process.

First, sail to Madlantis and head to the arcade games near the Madlantis Golf Range. You'll find a UFO Catcher game containing a blue plush – Kraken-Chan – that Surfer Jay desires. However, Kraken-Chan isn't always available. If you don't see it, speak to the attendant to change the prizes.

Winning Kraken-Chan might take several attempts; ensure you have enough cash. Strategically use the claw to nudge the plush into the collection slot. Once you have Kraken-Chan, return to Honolulu.

Locate Surfer Jay at Tropical Coco in the Anaconda Shopping Center (use the mini-map to find the pirate recruit symbol if needed). He'll share his relationship woes. Gift him Kraken-Chan, and he'll join your crew! While he doesn't have unique perks as First Mate or Boarding Squad Leader, completing his recruitment is essential for completionists.
