Overview 



The original design of the never-before seen point and click adventure is being brought to life after 30 years in the vault - Beyond Shadowgate! This new PC game is being created by the designers of the original 8-bit hit Shadowgate and a leading 8-bit adventure studio! 

With a world that is over five times larger than Shadowgate, Beyond Shadowgate captures the same look and feel as the 8-bit console version while including modern design sensibilities. Since the memory and color palette limitations are removed, Beyond Shadowgate is a much longer and vibrant game, with both retro and modern gameplay mechanics that give you the feel of the original! For players accustomed to the NES 8-bit version, the game features XInput controller support. The adventure is also completely playable by mouse and key binds. 

Get ready for the ultimate, official Shadowgate sequel

Story 

35 years have passed since Jair defeated the Warlock Lord in the caverns beneath the living castle, Shadowgate. In that time, the land of Kal Torlin prospered and the events of Shadowgate were forgotten. But once again evil is stirring, scheming to bring the world to ruin. 

In the dungeons of Gwynenthell, the capital city of Kal Torlin, a lowly Fenling by the name of Del Thornburrow awaits his fate. No stranger to a jail cell, Del soon frees himself from the dangers of the dungeon, only to begin a journey that will push him to the edge of his limits. 

Lead Del as he travels through Gwynenthell, across the Torlin Forest, over the Gatekeeper Mountains, and beyond! Uncover plots to overthrow kingdoms that threaten to plunge the land into darkness! Interact with old friends and new, while protecting Del from the traps, hazards, monsters, and every other peril that may introduce him to the ever-present Grim Reaper.

Amazing overdue followup

It's not often that studios make a sequel to a 35 year old game, and even less often that the attempt is any good. In this case, both things happened. While Shadowgate has technically had sequels, they haven't been done with direct input from the original team, so I guess this marks the first official one. Confusing terminology aside, this game nails it. If you love old school point and click games, this one is for you. If you've never really played them, this might still be for you if you love puzzles and a good story. No moon logic, just good clean fun.

A Wonderful and Fitting Tribute

Playing this brings back a lot of feelings I had when making my way through the original Nintendo Macventure games. I just finished the chapter that returns you to the Uninvited mansion. Incredible. Thank you, developers.

Blast from the past!

Not much needs to be said here other than if you have any love for point and click adventures, and especially if you ever played (and thoroughly enjoyed) the original on the NES, this is simply a must-play. It manages to be terrifically nostalgic but brand new at the same time...terrific sequel to a fantastic game! Loving every minute of it!

Fantastic sequel!

This is the game i have been waiting for since i played the original back on the NES. Both the graphics and soundtrack is awesome, it feels like it could have been a real release back in the day. It got that creepy and suspense setting like it's prequel, highly recommended!
