	Players can trade tapes with other players, and doing so will force the game to save after a successful trade. To initiate a trade, one player will have to offer a tape for trade. The other player can either offer a tape in exchange or decline the offer. To complete the trade, the initiating player will have to accept the other player's offered tape. During the trading process, players can inspect the offered tapes to see the stickers attached to them. Tapes currently in the player and partner slot in the party cannot be traded away.
