Tips

Monsters respawn over time, so avoid unnecessary engagements.
Blue potions are crucial for curing poison, especially in later levels. Save them.
Resting speeds up time significantly and leaves you vulnerable. Use it cautiously.
The Walther P4 handgun and survival knife are your starting weapons for a considerable portion of the game.
Pay attention to environmental clues and item descriptions for puzzle solutions.
