As long as I'm at good HP levels, it's easy. When I'm not, it's time to rest, or flee.
I also didn't like the guillotines, but they seem to be a well-known pendulum from below the Fountain Head, just with another piece of graphics.
By the way: in the Baywater Caverns the floors are covered with yucky caustic ooze which damages me if I step in. Just another pit --- with one important detail, and that's that you cannot levitate over ooze as you can over the pit. Is there another way to circumvent the ooze? (and pendula, guillotines and such devices?)
The only thing which I didn't like really is that the living knight and cleric tied in shackles have graphics of rusty, partly broken skeletons in chains. Would I have had some experiences with contents of those skeletons, I probably hadn't gone in and rescued them. (The skeletons are mostly empty or stuffed with scrolls I can't understand, and in order to get to them I typically have to cross one square of ooze and break down the wall, which counts as a turn in the ooze and deals another damage, and when coming out you've to cross the ooze for the third time... so it's really not worth that.)
