  • Backspace/B/Tap "Ascend": Ascend
  • Escape/Start/Tap "Menu": Open menu

Tips

  • Deeper layers have more gems, but also more enemies and fewer descent points.
  • Tiles you can descend on are highlighted orange.
  • You can also ascend by moving into a larger tile.
  • Tiles with enemies or locked doors are more likely to contain useful items.
  • Look for descents on the layer below you before descending to it.
