ntermediate
players must be able to use the surroundings without thought. Finding choke points and
safe spots are essential in this game, especially if you are in the lower levels of the
dungeon. This game is based on a square patterned floor. Both you and the enemy can only
occupy one square at a time. The following picture shows what I mean.
Notice that only one enemy is attacking. The rest must go around the
obstacles.
hoke
points are places where only a few enemies can come through. The best choke points are
doors. Stand just behind the door and take on the enemies one by one. This make take some
time but it works and it saves on a lot of health potions.
afe
points are corners and behind objects. It is risky but staying in the corner and attacking
can help you out. I have taken on a hoard of black knights this way a survived. Because
you are in the corner, only 3 enemies can attack at the same time, whereas if you are in
the open, there are 8 possible attack positions. The only downside to attacking from the
corner is that it requires you to give up the ability to run. Hiding behind objects is
useful because it takes away a position where the enemies can attack. As one gets better
at this game, one can see these safe spots much easier.
ne
of my favorite tactics is to stand behind a wall and wait for the enemies to come around
the corner. Then I let lose with a onrush of arrows or magic. With the warrior, this
tactic doesn't work so well but the warrior can stand get a the corner of the wall a use
an axe to hack away at the enemies as they come by.
f
all else fails, RETREAT. There is no shame in running in you cannot win. Keep running
until you find a good choke point or even back to town if you have to!
