Description: This is a funny one. For once, you actually want the shooter to spit out archies and PEs. No archie here, but those flaming skulls obviously set Mr Romero's hair alight quite nicely. Obviously, the time could be improved a lot, but this would be largely a matter of luck. BTW, the mastermind room is a lot easier if you awaken the imps to distract the spider, but some of them would then get damaged by the crushing pillars, and this wouldn't exactly embody the pacifist aethos.

The two failed attempts to run for the boss brain platform are no disaster - until any of the useful monsters have spawned, there's nothing you can do up there anyway (apart from wait and take damage).
