Attribute Points

Learn how to gain health points in Pathways into Darkness by collecting items. Discover the five categories of items and how they contribute to your survival in the pyramid.

In Pathways into Darkness, attribute points are directly tied to your health. Collecting certain items within the pyramid grants you points, and for every two points accumulated, your health increases by one point. This system encourages exploration and careful management of your inventory.

Items in the game are categorized into five types:

• Weapons: Essential for combat, some weapons utilize different ammunition types like HE and Sabot.
• Crystals: These items possess unique powers that charge over time and can be used multiple times, though each use increases the recharge duration. The yellow crystal, used for communicating with the dead, has unlimited uses.
• Potions: Consumable items that provide temporary effects, such as invincibility or time manipulation.
• Miscellaneous Items: These are crucial for puzzle-solving, navigation (like the map), or holding other items.
• Treasure: Various valuable objects found throughout the game.
