* Avoid grabbing the Ragebox until there are enemies around it only lasts a 
  certain amount of time and you won't get in as many kills as possible for
  the duration. 

* The Demon Dice are an excellent choice when Alice faces several enemies
  simultaneously, but when the number of foes gets down to one, the Dice will
  turn on you. You might want to consider chucking a few knives into the 
  fiend that the Dice unleash. 

* Don't use the blunderbuss unless there are three or four attackers in the
  vicinity. It drains all of Alice's will, but the meta-essence of several 
  dead opponents should get you back in action in short order. 

* Use the Quick Save feature liberally during long jumping sequences.
