He's the first brave soul to have ventured into Hell...

Still haven't much clue what I'm doing nor have I any real strategy. Enjoying it greatly so far.
Edit to add:
Still playing it on the easiest level. I kind of spoiled it for myself reading a chunk of this topic and looking up a couple of items but I finished it for the first time today and my fourth attempt too.

I'd double post and bump the topic again but I'd guess doing what I had on the easiest setting is pretty meaningless.
Love this game!
