Player stats
Your character has a few important stats. Follow them on the image to the left.
Health bar: Your current / maximum health. Don't let this go to zero. Because then you'd be dead!
Energy bar: Your current / maximum energy. Used to power many abilities. No problem if it drops to zero.
Attack #: Number next to the sword. How much damage you do in one hit to a normal monster.
XP bar: Your experience / what's needed for the next level. Kill monsters to get XP!
Level #: Number next to the smiley. Your character level. The higher it is, the tougher you are!

Healing
There are two main ways to regain health and energy in the game:
Eat Food: Food heals 50% health and 50% energy. Beware of the status effects Poison (which stops food restoring health) and Weakness (which stops food restoring energy). Monsters also heal 50% health when you eat food (think of them chowing down at the same time!).
Level up: Each time you level up, you regain full health and energy.
