Well, you _do_ need a lot of potions to get through this series
of levels, but let me suggest a few things:

* immediately use the green crystal on every group of monsters
  whose feet touch the ground.

* use the violet crystal on the banshees!

* the grenade launcher is fun, but takes too long to reload
  most of the time; use it once and then switch to the AK-47.

* begin each room by sidestepping into the left or right
  corner.

* never try to sleep :)
