'''Safe zones''' are side chambers along the walls of the well, sealed behind a ~~shimmering~~ time-field: while ~~you stand~~ inside, everything outside freezes~~. They are the only calm the well offers~~.

'''Safe zones''' are side chambers along the walls of the well, sealed behind a time-field: while the player stands inside, everything outside freezes.

Each safe zone contains either a treasure spot — a [[Gem Vein|gem vein]] or a crate holding a [[Gun Modules|gun module]] — or a [[Shop]] (marked by a hanging sign above the bubble). Roughly half of side rooms are shops, with three exceptions: [[Arm Spin Style]] drops the chance to 1 in 7, [[Levitate Style]] guarantees the last side room of a level is a shop, and the [[Member's Card]] upgrade makes a shop appear on every floor.

Landing in a safe zone does not end ~~your~~ [[Combos|combo]] ~~— you can rest, restock and resume the chain~~. Time only stops ''outside'' the field~~, though~~: dropped [[Gems|gems]] and corpses ~~out~~ in the well still fade while ~~you browse~~.

Landing in a safe zone does not end the current [[Combos|combo]]. Time only stops outside the field: dropped [[Gems|gems]] and corpses in the well still fade while the player is inside.
