This is the other hot release by DFW that has drawn surprisingly little attention here, probably because LI was the more heralded release of the two. Anyway, I've just finished the first quest. Or, more precisely, I've finished the first quest through Level 8, and I'm about to enter the ninth level. I have to say that this is one of the more amazing quests that I've ever seen. The rearranged overworld makes it so much more than another 1st quest remake (I got a surprise when the shield bounced back rocks). The dungeons may be superficially similar to the first quest ones, but one play through them reveals they presently entirely new labyrinths within the original shapes. Level 6 was one of the most surreal levels that I've played in any quest ever.
Here's my somewhat broad question. This is the "easy" first quest, and there are times when it hasn't been kind. It is foreboding to think of what the second and third quests will do to my modest playing skillz. Anyone got any tips to help me keep from being absolutely shredded in the later quests? :)
