    Utilize conversations with dead individuals via a yellow crystal to gain puzzle information, monster strategies, and story details.

    Find and collect treasure items to increase score and health.

    The ultimate goal is to reach the bottom level and detonate a nuclear device to stun the Dreaming God.
Tips
  • Conserve ammo and health; resting is dangerous due to time acceleration and vulnerability.
  • Save blue potions for later levels, as they are the only cure for poison.
  • Pay close attention to conversations for clues to puzzles and enemy weaknesses.
  • Not all monsters can be killed conventionally, and they respawn over time.
  • Be aware of the five-day in-game timer before the Dreaming God fully awakens.
