REALMS OF CHAOS
Realms
of Chaos is an exciting side-scrolling platform game
with an innovative mix of action, adventure, mysticism,
and role-playing that's never been seen in this style of
game. Set in the fantastic world of Mysteria, Realms of
Chaos is the first of many adventures of Endrick and
Elandra, a brother and sister duo who find themselves on
a journey to save the many realms of Mysteria, from a
dark, evil shadow that has engulfed their world, and has
turned all of the inhabitants into fierce enemies.
The story of the darkness is revealed as you finish each
of the three game chapters. Each chapter, or episode,
has three unique realms--each realm has new enemies, new
graphics, new traps and new challenges. In all, 26
killer levels!
FEATURES & INNOVATIONS
Play as two different characters: A male warrior with a
devastating sword attack and extra stamina, and a female
sorceress with a long range fireball attack and great
leaping ability. At any point in the game you can press
a key to switch between characters! It's up to you to
decide which character is best to handle each challenge.
Vibrant, realistic VGA graphics. (Tons and tons of
graphics that actually take you to new worlds. You'll
want to see what's behind every corner--even if it means
running into things that want to kill you!)
High speed 360 degree scrolling playfield viewed at a
tilted perspective (gives the game a depth of view
that's missing in games like Jazz Jackrabbit).
Many unique and fantastic game puzzles that are not
rehashes of what you've seen in other games.
Some areas concentrate on fighting and action, while
others concentrate on exploration and discovery. This
makes for fresh, exciting, and new challenges on every
level.
As part of the game's realism there's a lot of blood
that flies. But, for younger players, we've included a
blood toggle so that the game is suitable for all age
groups. Parents can password protect this option so that
children cannot turn it back on.
Among all the amazing enemies you'll encounter, you'll
also face four incredible bosses, plus one final super
boss!
Midi-music and digital sound effects by Bobby Prince,
known for his award winning work in Wolfenstein 3-D,
DOOM I & II, and Duke Nukem 3D. (Special ambient sound
effects make the game seem alive!)
For Paganitzu fans, there are plenty of inside
references to this game, which was the author's first
Apogee game (in 1991).
Tons of secrets, bonus and hidden areas to find, making
the game highly repayable over and over again!
Five difficulty levels, from "Super Easy" to "Psycho
Warrior." The higher secret levels actually change the
game, by introducing new hazards (e.g. poison) and new
challenges (e.g. auto-scrolling playfields)--a PC gaming
first!
Save and restore WITHIN the game levels (save anywhere)
-- plus convenient quick save/restore buttons.
The excitement in Realms of Chaos is
never knowing what you'll find next. And each difficulty
level adds new challenges to the game rather than simply
making enemies harder to kill. Playing the game in
Psycho mode is a different game than playing in Normal
mode.
Originally released November
