  1. I want to actually put time into a max score run of Equinox. The goal wouldn't be speed, but rather a deathless completion of every room in the game. I guess it'd serve more as a video walkthrough of how the rooms are meant to be cleared? I guess I'm not really sure what the purpose is, but it's something I want to do.
  2.  
  3. For background, you are awarded points in Equinox for collecting important items (10 points per token, 32 points per weapon/magic spell), 25 points for killing a troll with a unique weapon and getting a health expansion, 250 points for killing a boss, and 4 points for clearing a room. "Clearing" a room means being in the room when it is completely empty: no enemies, no items, no keys, nothing. The boss room is worth 4 points as well, but the room isn't cleared upon killing the boss since you exit to world map instantly after. To get the 4 points from a boss room, you need to visit the room before collecting 12 tokens or after killing the boss.
  4.  
  5. In summary, to achieve the max score of 5200 (would be 5450 after killing the final boss, but you cannot check score afterwards), we need to:
  6. -"Clear" all 457 rooms in the game (kill all enemies and collect all items)
  7. -Obtain all 6 possible health expansions by killing trolls with unique weapons
  8. -Visit each boss chamber before spawning the boss
