This was a close call - I'm playing Angel of Red Alert. I was all the way to the right and most of the top of the map was unexplored, when I was notified that I have 60 seconds to live... and no stairs in sight. I ran back through the unexplored rooms, had to blast the last imp that stood in my way, and then I found the stairs, with EXACTLY one second to spare. Phew! If I reloaded that shotgun on reflex, I would not make it.
BTW, earlier today something like this happened to be in Hell's armory, except that there I ended on the tile next to the stairs and blew up. It seems like I have the tendency to turn back at the last possible moment.
