- Tips:
-
- All enemies have intelligence and are unlikely to be fooled
- more than once. Vary your approach, and use combination
- attacks whenever possible.
-
- Potions and chests may contain items that assist you, such as
- health or armor. Some potions and chests, however, may contain
- poison, explosives, or other traps.
-
- The game is dynamic. Enemies wander around during the course of
- play. Just because you cleared a previous room or area doesn't
- mean that it is empty now.
-
- Some items may be used in the solution of puzzles. Look for books,
- keys, and other non-weapon items.
-
- Good Luck!
