- As soon as you spawn in the game, don’t forget to pick up your starting bonus called the Adventurer’s Present. Go to the bottom left stairs and talk to the NPC there. It will drop a Christmas Gift for you, which can be used to unlock various starting perks.
- The number of enemy waves indicates their difficulty level:
Easy and Normal Difficulty = 25 Waves

Impossible Difficulty = 35 Waves
- If you’re speedrunning the game, you can do so by solely focusing on the main quest line and increasing your virtue/essence in the game.
