Tips

Combat is a blend of FPS and RPG; don't 'run and gun'.
Monsters respawn, ammo is scarce, and you're often under-equipped.
Health is regained by resting (risky, speeds up time) or rare blue potions.
Blue potions cure poison and are vital for later levels.
You start with only a handgun and survival knife for about half the game.
Items grant points; every two points equal one health point.
Crystals have special powers but shatter after multiple uses (except the yellow crystal).
Potions offer temporary buffs like invincibility or slow-motion.
Miscellaneous items are crucial for puzzles and game progression.
Collect treasure for points.
