Finished the game in 1 1/2 hours and didn't even die once, but... I was expecting a dragon or a wizard for a boss... But it was an F-ing merchant with a stick (This made it original =D). Maybe he lures adventurers in the cave and loots their stuff if they get killed. Good loot for killing him though: a 200 damage weapon. Tips: Early game, collect gems and use escape wings before reaching the next shop, this way you get prepared for harder levels. Prioritize enemies that could be killed with a single blow. If possible, get all the items in a level. Save money to buy potions, ONLY POTIONS, because you will eventually get better items while exploring. Heaping stocks of potions made me survive the whole game. Good game but 4/5 for lack of challenge.
hard is easy when you go for the blue one first. cuz the pink ones doesn't disappear quickly, so you can return to collecting the pink ones after you try to collect the blue ones.
The only reason why this game doesn't have a survival mode or sandbox mode is because of the game features. Like the Mana Pool which may make you have like endless amount of mana in the long run, you could also fill the map with towers and water trenches, and of course... Make Godlike Gems... and wait for like forever... until your bored and stop it.
crap... i should have played longer... should have gotten the impossible badge... i got bored... and let myself get killed...CRAP... ONLY 1 Dead-eye shot left... and 10 missiles left... got the resources and disabled badge... crap...
