Instructions:

You, a prisoner in a goblin city, must dive through 5 floors into the deep caves in order to return the Amulet of Woe to where it belongs, a journey that will necessarily involve a certain degree of violence.

Although you cannot normally attack (you'll push past enemies instead), if you find yourself surrounded by >3 enemies, you enter a martial trance, and will then receive special commands ("Move up! Attack left!") from your spirit guide that will increase/decrease your rage if obeyed/disobeyed.

  • You exit a martial trance when there are no more foes directly adjacent.
  • At 5 rage, you regenerate health each time you deal damage to a living foe.
  • At 15 rage, you must activate one ability, if you possess any.
  • At 20 rage, your spirit guide will summon one angel to assist you, and your rage will reset to 5. The angel will become hostile if you stop raging.
  • Each time you obey a command, your rage goes up by 1; each time you ignore a command, it goes down by 2.
  • You are granted a single (random) ability after slaying 10 foes, and then granted more after slaying 15-20 more.

Controls:

  • Movement: qweasdzxc, or hjklyubn if you prefer that.
  • Attacking: bump into enemies (only while in martial trance).
  • "M" to show messages.
  • Escape to view keybindings and quit.

Some tips:

  • Corners and walls are highly useful to ensure you only have 3-5 foes attacking you at once.
  • You won't stop raging if there are fewer than 4 foes adjacent to you, so beginning a rage while surrounded and then immediately moving into a corner is a great tactic.
  • Treat all ranged attackers (arbalists and hostile angels) as an emergency.
  • Remember that you can push past enemies while not in a rage.
  • Because always following commands will result in a quick death (from getting surrounded and not regenerating health rapidly enough from your attacks), you should creatively balance out both stats to ensure you end fights with net positive health.
  • Once you've reached the Armory, find the stairs to the deeper caves which a group of very dangerous enemies will guard. There you will find the fiery chasm, which you can bump into to throw the Amulet in.
