The briefing

About this game

In the Kingdom of Etrulia, demons and devils have broken through the Gate of Doom. Four heroes summoned by the Force Divine must defeat the monsters of darkness and use the magic gem and magic crown to seal the gate forever.

Gate of Doom is an isometric fantasy beat ’em up for one or two players in cooperative play. Players can choose from four characters: the powerful Knight, magic-wielding Wizard, poison-immune Bard, and fast-moving Ninja. Each uses a distinct mid-range weapon and can move and attack in all eight directions, although attacking prevents movement.

Combat and Magic

When the magic meter is full, players can activate the spell shown in a constantly flipping spell book. Spells transform the character into elemental forms such as a tornado, sparkling cloud, or bush of fire, lasting until the meter is depleted. Chests contain items that restore life and magic, along with armor parts that improve character statistics.

Enemies include skeletons, ghouls, kobolds, and other fantasy creatures, some of which can poison or confuse the heroes.
