Gameplay[]
Strategy[]
Sand Eunuchs are weaker than the Sand Courtesans. The Prince can defeat them with a few well placed blows, but they can still deplete a great deal of the Prince's lifebar when given the opportunity. They are vulnerable to wall rebound attacks, just like most Sand Creatures, so it's best to vault over them and attack.
