[ALAN DURING] Hellevator
A downloadable game for Windows
Welcome to Hell...
...where sins taint the sinners' skin and the demons feed on the damned.
Amid the barren land, you wake up longing for the solace of your wife. But finding her ain't easy. Traverse the levels of hell through the Hellevator and fend off the wretched souls who attack you.
Every decision shapes the future you witness. Will you atone for your past transgressions or will the Hellevator lead you to fate even worse than eternal damnation?
Features
- Fight with your sword or your word. There's more than one way to fend off enemies. You may even witness different futures.
- Transact with Gobu, the local merchant in Hell, to help you get material for your journey.
- Immerse yourself in this dark and twisted narrative of love, loss, heartache, and redemption.
