Most of the published Metroidvania games provide players with a map in UI to refer to during the runtime to prevent players from getting lost in the levels. However, the mapless design is almost non-exist in this game genre. Since checking map action interrupts the player's experience, this paper hypothesizes that certain game mechanics could improve players' spatial memory to reduce the need for a map. I focus on the mechanics in which the player is being chased by a monster to validate whether it is helpful for players to memorize the level maps. I conducted a within-subject experiment, asked the participants to play two game levels with or without a chasing monster, and assessed their memory of the levels' map. According to the independent t-test result of the experiment data, the chasing-monster feature was verified as not affecting participants' memory of the maps. Additionally, I analyzed behavioral patterns deviation between experienced or inexperienced players in the gameplay and memory assessment process for future references in game and level design of Metroidvania games.
