As soon as you encounter a foe around the town or in the Sand Tower, you enter the Battle Screen. Here, you can select from the three available commands, which are "Fight", "Use Item" and "Flee". Let's consider every possible situation.

FIGHT

This command is used to defeat a foe with your weapon. In case you meet a strong opponent, you won't be able to knock it down with a single blow, so you'll have to use this command several times. As soon as you win a fight, you earn some experience and money!

USE ITEM

You can use some items from your inventory in battle. It might not be important in a common fight, but it is of great use when fighting against special enemies.

FLEE

In case you meet a powerful adversary on your lower levels, you'd better run for it. It is also recommended that you flee when you don't have a weapon equipped or are low on health. There may be a time you're unlucky enough to get attacked by an enemy and then you can't flee. In case you fail to escape, you will receive the enemy's attack without a chance to respond.

GIZA
The game starts in the city of Giza. Though it's swarming with thieves and its civil order is poor, it contains many shops which will be vital on your adventure. Your first priorities should be to prepare your equipment and gather information.


SHOPS
There are many different shops which can help you in your adventure.

INN

Aunt Amada

The woman known as Aunt Amada manages the inn while taking care of three rambunctious children. Whenever you're weary from battle, feel free to take a rest here and recover your HP. Spending the night will restore your HP to the maximum for your current level. Regardless of how many HP you need to recover, a night's stay costs 50G. Be sure to keep at least this much money on you at all times in case of an emergency. Resting here will also tell you how many EXP you need for your next level.

WEAPON SHOP

Muhammad

This is the first place you should visit on your adventures to buy a weapon. Even though the knife would be the most powerful weapon you can afford then, it's still better than bare arms. You can also buy a better sword or armor here as soon as you save on some coins. Muhammad, the owner of this shop, is an experienced sword dancer and knife enthusiast.

You can't relax when in town!
Even here you can be attacked by one of the enemies shown below. It is recommended that you fight these foes in the beginning to earn some starting experience.

Crooked Trader	Bandit	Thief
These foes are rather weak compared to other two types. But they have tons of money on so be sure to defeat them!	These little scoundrels usually loiter around the town. They might be rather tough opponents in the beginning of the game.	This one is basically the boss of the town, so you're recommended to run in case you meet him when your level is low.

Let's Get to the Map When you're around a maze like the Town, proceed further while drawing a map. Without a map, you can easily get lost in a dungeon or even on your way to the shop, so this is serious! It might sound bothersome at first, but when you're done with the Map, it will be very useful further in the game. Check the illustration on the right below an as an example. Game Screen Example Map For example, see a screenshot with the Inn above. That place is marked with the ? sign on the map example. If you ever get stuck, try thinking over it once again! Think carefully and calmly on what you have seen or done in your way. Is your Level sufficient enough? Maybe you have forgotten to do something somewhere? Try using all the commands where and when available as well as using your items. You will definitely find out something new. In case you still can't find a solution, try consulting with your friend.
