* The game had an odd quirk: the monsters don't have a running hitpoint total. If a monster has 50HP and an attack does 15 damage, that attack has a 30% chance off killing the monster, otherwise it does nothing. This will result in some odd behaviors; tough bosses will sometimes go down in one hit, other times a monster may seem to be bugged and take forever to defeat.
