Warning: The following contains information that will help you solve the game. PLease, DO NOT READ FROM START TO FINISH. You'll spoil the game. Besides, no one said Hell was supposed to be a walk in the park.

                   HELL : A Cyberpunk Thriller Walk Thru
                   -------------------------------------

        Anyone played this game knows there are more than one ways to arrive
at the ending. The one I present here is only one of the many possibilities. 
Althrough I spent a lot of time to make the story line as linear and logic as 
possible, readers might still find it rather dis-orienated. Remember, examine 
each and every item you pick up. At some point, game progress relie on this. 
As in my previous creations, I had excluded un-necessary informations. So if 
you come across one during game play, feel free to explore on your own. Also, 
each character in your party carries his/her own inventory. Make sure you 
examine them. Be prepare to spend hours if you want to play this one from 
square one.
