Tips
  • Combat requires careful strategy; "run and gun" tactics are ineffective.
  • Conserve ammunition and health, as both are rare.
  • Blue potions are crucial for curing poison and should be saved for later levels.
  • The yellow crystal for conversations can be used an unlimited number of times.
  • Picking up certain objects grants points, with every two points awarding one health point.
  • Be aware that resting speeds up time and leaves you vulnerable to attack.
