Healing and saving the game | Game mechanics Legend of Grimrock II Guide
Last update: 31 May 2016
Generally speaking, you can save the game anytime and anywhere you want. Just pause the game and choose the option of saving it, or simply use the key shortcut. The Creators had also prepared another saving system in a form of Healing Crystals. Those are special crystals, independent from the difficulty level or a modifier that had been chosen. They can be found in different locations and enable the player to save the progress of the game, whilst healing and replenishing the energy bars of the party at the same time. They can also resurrect the fallen members. After using them, they are temporarily disabled and will be able to reuse after twenty four hours. This stands for the standard type of play, which does not prevent the player from using it more than once (so called Single-use Crystals). And while speaking of the health regeneration, it is worth mentioning that described here saving points are not the only way of replenishing the vitality of the players party. If the player has an alchemist in his team, or simply has an eye on the surroundings, it will provide with having some special potions, which will help the player in fights. And if there is a moment of repose, you can rest (by default R key). It will refill all of the party bars, but it will also change the in-game time.
