Tips
- Combat requires careful strategy; running and gunning is not effective.
- Monsters respawn over time, so be prepared for repeated encounters.
- Ammo is rare; conserve it and utilize your survival knife when necessary.
- Health can only be regained by resting (which speeds up time and leaves you vulnerable) or by using rare blue potions.
- Blue potions are crucial for curing poison and should be saved for later levels.
- The yellow crystal for conversations has unlimited uses.
- Other crystals have special powers but shatter after multiple uses, with each recharge taking longer.
- Picking up certain objects grants points, with two points equaling one health point.
- Be aware of miscellaneous items needed for puzzles, like the red cloak and tinderbox.
- Treasure items increase your score and health points.
