this game is so hard... i am not sure if the one that is always killing me is the phalanx demon.. maybe not.. he killed my thief character 6 times already with a single strike of his sphere...

do you know where is the phalanx demon that we need to kill in the starting quest?

me, too.. i am always at ghost mode...

after the phalanx, did you kill the red dragon already? I'm running like hell in the bridge and still most of times the red dragon will fly and kill me with his fire breath...

so that means we can already kill the red dragon even if our soul level is a bit low... hehehe... i am still in level 13...

how i wish i had all the time to play this game... this is so frustrating yet addictive.

if you do not want to start all the way from the beginning, just quit the game if you die. Do this before you spawn back at the starting position. When you load your game you will be in a place where you killed the last enemy. I'm not sure though if there is a side-effect/glitch on this one, but until now I'm using this if I die. hehehe...
