Enemies are drawn to the island to reclaim a mysterious treasure, creating continuous pressure to stay ahead while navigating the maze.
- Experiment with different timing for parries to discover each enemy’s counter‑attack window.
- Use quick repositioning after a strike to reduce exposure to follow‑up attacks.
