Easter Egg
See the Tato King

When snapping the mural of the Tato king you may have noticed a mark on the wall showing a Crown, Royal Cape and Scepter.
Go back to the secret room in the cave while wearing all 3 pieces for an event...

- Scepter - 3 ticket prize at the Carnival

For anyone who may be looking for the flip-flops, on the screen with all the ghosts, in the back right corner under the palm tree, there is an X to dig up a chest that contains them

Also, you will get beret if you submit all self portrait photos to the painter. Self portrait photos are photos that are drawn in a different style when you take a picture of it (there will also be ! sign on the person when you check it from your camera)

@BernieS: you'll be able to meet the real tato king if you equip them all and return to the cave.

So I've got the crown, the robe, and the scepter. Is this supposed to trigger something else or is just the process of getting all three pieces?

@Meng turns out you need to get the camera filters at the camera house featuring challenge pictures inside in Stanhamn by talking to a new guy there (he must have been added between release and the game's first anniversary).
