Navigate the treacherous pyramid in Pathways into Darkness's 'The Ultimate Sacrifice' mission. Discover strategies, combat tips, and puzzle solutions to defeat the Dreaming God.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You begin separated from your team, with only a flashlight and survival knife. The Dreaming God will awaken in five game days.
  2. 2
    Navigate the pyramid's 25 levels, facing monsters and solving puzzles.
  3. 3
    Use the yellow crystal to converse with the dead for clues and strategies.
  4. 4
    Combat requires careful planning; ammo is scarce, monsters respawn, and you move at similar speeds.
  5. 5
    Health can be regained by resting (risky) or rare blue potions, which also cure poison.
  6. 6
    Find various items: weapons (some with multiple ammo types), crystals (with limited uses, except the yellow one), potions (with temporary effects), miscellaneous items for puzzles, and treasure for score and health.
  7. 7
    Each two points gained from items increases your health by one point.
  8. 8
    Defeat the Dreaming God at the bottom level before it fully awakens.
Tips
  • Conserve ammo and health; resting is dangerous due to time acceleration and vulnerability.
  • Save blue potions for later levels where poison is more common and deadly.
  • Experiment with keywords during conversations to uncover all available information.
  • Understand that not all monsters can be killed conventionally.
  • Be aware of the five-day in-game timer.
