How do I imprison Njam and win the game?
  • 1 of 5: After you finish off the chessboard Demons, there are a bunch more to kill in the big room beyond.
  • 2 of 5: I suggest shooting them with arrows from maximum distance to get their attention, and then using the same strategy that you used on the chessboard Demons.
  • 3 of 5: After you kill all the monsters in the room (or most of them, anyway), you'll be able to access a special lever that's behind the north central wall of the room.
  • 4 of 5: NOTE: You could just walk up to that wall and use the lever through it without killing anything. You'd miss out on a lot of fun combat, though, and your final score would be lower.
  • 5 of 5: Hit the lever to imprison that toejam Njam for an eternity or two, and win the game at last! Hooray!
