FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
What do I do when I am low on health or ammo?
Look for hidden storage areas. The secret passages can be
located by looking carfully at variations in wall texture.
Look for a change in color, someting added like moss, or
something removed like zendel.
What happens if I die?
You start over again at the begining of that level with just
the pluser.
I can't make it very far without dying?
Use god mode ([CRTL] [ALT] [I]) the first couple of times you go
through a new area, also look for secret storage areas as they
often contain ammo and health.
I don't have enough memory?
Depth Dwellers due to it's sophisticated design requires a
system with at least 4Mb of ram. There needs to be at least
2.8Mb free of extended or expanded memory for this game to run.
I have a 386 and it is slow.
