Walkthrough

1
Collect at least 100 items to earn stars, with 1 star awarded per 5 items up to a maximum of 20 stars. Aiming for around 120 items is easily achievable by picking up all supplies, ammo, health items, and important pickups in side rooms.
2
Prioritize essential items like at least three Ampoules to maximize stamina for specific bosses, as you can only take less than 500 points in damage. Ampoules, First-Aid Kits, and Health Drinks restore 100, 50, and 25 health points respectively.
3
Remember to pick up important ammo for the Handgun, Shotgun, and SMG.
4
Locate and collect the five extra weapons:
- Unlimited Submachine Gun: On the boxes at the left end of the alley out the beginning washroom in Central Square.
5
Beam Saber: The handle of the northwesternmost door in the north 2F corridor of Central Square.
6
Flamethrower: On the counter of Helen's Bakery while getting the Tongs, Central Square 2F.
7
Gold and Silver Pipes: Drop your Steel Pipe into the water in the monster room of the Underpass' lower level and answer honestly.
8
Do NOT use any of these five extra weapons during your 10-star run, as using them will result in a point deduction from your ranking. Ensure a normal weapon is always equipped.
9
The Heather Beam, while unlocked, does not count towards the extra weapon count but will reduce your rank if used. Avoid equipping it.

Tips

Picking up everything you see is generally a good strategy, but you can ignore less necessary items once you've reached a sufficient count.
Do not equip or use the five extra weapons (Unlimited Submachine Gun, Beam Saber, Flamethrower, Gold and Silver Pipes) to avoid rank penalties.
Avoid using the Heather Beam as it also negatively impacts your weapon rank.
