SPOILER

The snails are your most deadly enemy.

They are much better at tracking you down, but you can use that to your advantage.

First of all, get the two clovers and attract the first demon and get him to
follow you into the upper left hand corner.  Go clockwise around the pot of gold
and head for the first boulder.  Get to the right of it and push it until it just
hangs over the left end of the top shelf.  If you time it right the demon will
get in position where you can push the boulder on top of him.  Be careful not to
bump into the boulder and disintegrate it, you need it at the end.

Now comes the best part.  Go over to the other boulder at the top far right and
push it until it overhangs the right end of the shelf.  Be careful not to push it
against any creature.  WAIT until a demon (not a snail) comes up the path under
the boulder (the snails will be close by though) and push the boulder on top of
the demon.  Now, while the demon is going through his death throes, move ON TOP OF
THE BOULDER (but don't break it).  The stupid snails will try to get close to you,
i.e. they will stay under the boulder!  If you do this right you can usually kill
2 snails along with the demon.

Having done that, you need to push the first ball at the lower left into the slot.
Then disintegrate the ball that is stuck in the small depression, but wait for the
snail to get close to it.  Head directly for the ball that is on the left hand
ledge and wait for the snail to get into position and smash him.  The rest is
logic.  There is one more demon, but he is easy to avoid.
