The Shadows of Sergoth - A glorious work in progress Amiga Dungeon Crawler gets a demo


How time flies as it felt like it was only just yesterday that I had the pleasure of playing the high quality dungeon crawler that was released on the Amstrad CPC 6128; An inspiration to all those great first person grid based dungeon crawlers such as Eye of the Beholder or Dungeon Master. Well once again I'm in disbelief, as today we've just been told the upcoming Amiga conversion of that great homebrew crawler, has got its first Amiga demo released via Double Sided Games.

The Shadows of Sergoth was originally announced as being ported over to the Amiga by Colin Vella, Graphics and Sound by Saul Cross and publishing by Double Sided Games with full support of the original Amstrad team. What changed not longer after however, was the fact that Saul Cross was no longer doing the graphics working on other projects, with TenShu takeing over the whole graphics job for the game with the awesome new look which you can now experience for yourself in this demo!

Requirements : To play the game you’ll need at least 1.5Mb of chip ram and preferably a 020 CPU, although it runs on a 68000 equipped Amiga. We strongly recommend to turn off movement animations in the options menu (before you start a game) if you’re playing on a 68000 or 68020.

Release : Official release is expected for the end of the year/beginning of next with pre-orders opening in november. As usual boxed and digital editions will be available.
