Walkthrough

1
The game spans 25 levels within an otherworldly pyramid.
2
Your mission is to reach the bottom level and detonate a nuclear device to stun the Dreaming God.
3
You begin with only a flashlight and survival knife due to equipment loss.
4
Monsters created by the waking god populate the pyramid and respawn over time.
5
The Dreaming God will fully awaken in five game days.

Combat requires careful strategy as ammo is scarce, monsters respawn, and you move at similar speeds.

Health can be regained by resting (risky as it speeds up time) or rare blue potions.
8
Blue potions are crucial for curing poison and are the only way to regain health in later stages.
9
Conversations with dead individuals via a yellow crystal provide puzzle clues, story information, and combat strategies.
10
Keywords are used in dialogue to elicit responses from the dead.
11
Items found increase your score and health points; two points grant one health point.
12
Items include weapons, crystals (with limited uses, except the yellow one), potions, miscellaneous puzzle/utility items, and treasure.
13
Solve puzzles using items like the red cloak and map.

Tips

Conserve ammunition; not all monsters can be killed conventionally.
Save blue potions for critical moments, especially for poison cures.
Resting is dangerous; only do so when absolutely necessary and safe.
Utilize conversations to gather all available information before proceeding.
Explore thoroughly to find all items, as they are crucial for survival and progression.
