Demons of Asteborg - Nintendo Switch

Demons of Asteborg is an original and challenging new 2D game that mixes action, puzzles and strategy. This 16-bit classic will bring back memories for retro fans. Long ago in the Kingdom of Asteborg, a war broke out, pitting humans and demons against each other in a bloody battle. Sagramor, a powerful mercenary, and Maria, a sorceress with fighting magic, joined forces to defeat the demonic army. Sagramor found a way to lock the demons in an alternate dimension, but it cost him his own life. His sacrifice earned him the title of "Legend of Asteborg." Shortly before the end of the war, Maria gave birth to a child named Gareth. When she died four years later, Gareth was taken in by the royal orphanage, and Bohort, the leader of the armed troops, trained him to become a formidable warrior. Decades later, Zadimus, the former leader of the Demons who survived the great war, reopened the portal to the parallel dimension to free his fellow Demons, declare war on the humans and take back the Kingdom of Asteborg. As Gareth, now the royal guard of Asteborg, you set out on an adventure, braving the kingdom’s dangerous lands populated by bloodthirsty monsters. Along the way, you'll learn more and more about the ancient war and your identity. But beware, Zadimus won't let you get away with it....
