Learn the levels before going for the bonuses. It's not always a good idea to
collect valuable items as it tends to make the monsters much more aggressive.
Sometimes it pays to lose a life before entering a new level to fool the
computer into thinking you're not that good a player, this means the next
stage will be easier.
It is important in this game to choose the right weapons at the shop.
here is a full listing of the weapons and their dis/advantages:
STOPS ON STOPS ON
WEAPON POWER MONSTERS? WALLS?
~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~
Knife 1 Yes Yes
Shuriken 2 No Yes
Mace 3 Yes Yes
Fireball 5 Yes Yes
Hunter 5 Yes No
Spear 6 No No
Axe 12 No No
Time Bomb 20 No Yes
Lightning Bolt 25 No No
MONSTERS
All the monsters encountered in Gods have attributes that define their
weaknesses, strengths and behaviour. The hit point "HP" attribute sets how
many times a monster must be hit before it dies. A weak monster would have
perhaps 10 hit points where a stronger creature could have 250 or more. As you
progress thru the game you will notice that the monsters become more
intelligent. This means that they will be more effective at carrying out their
objectives to steal treasure, kill or avoid you. It's not wise to attack
thieves as they're usuall helpful.
WEAPONS
Weapons also have attributes which define their behaviour and effective- ness.
The weapons hit point score determines how powerful it is. For example, to
kill a monster with 20 hit points would require 20 throws of a one hit point
weapon (a knife for example) or 4 throws of a five hit point weapon (like a
fireball). Weapons which go past walls are generally more effective. Overall,
the value of the weapon reflects its usefulness.
POTIONS
Correct use of potions can be helpful in completing many sections in Gods. You
can normally only carry three items so don't buy to many potions in the shop,
leave room for other objects necessary for solving puzzles.
POWER POTIONS
These are used to increase the effectiveness of weapons. Buying or picking up
a power potion increases the damage done by all of your weapons. The same
effect can be achieved by getting multiples of the same weapon. Considering
power potions effect all the weapons, they are obviously a far more economical
way of increasing weapon hit points than buying or picking up multiples of the
same weapon.
EXTRA LIVES
Additional lives are found in treasure rooms but they can also be awarded for
clever play and scoring points. Extra lives can also be given to a player that
is doing badly.
