How to Start Diablo on Hell Mode

Blizzard Entertainment's classic 1996 hack-and-slash role-playing game, "Diablo," follows the player's journey as he battles through 16 progressive dungeons on a quest to defeat Diablo and his minions. While "Diablo" has only one initially-accessible difficulty level, players can unlock the bonus "Nightmare" and "Hell" levels after reaching specific milestones in the game's multiplayer campaign. Enabling the "Hell" difficulty, the most daunting of the difficulty levels, significantly augments the attack power, level, and health of enemy mobs, offering players new challenges and demanding a more strategic approach to combat than the game's "Normal" and "Nightmare" campaigns.
