Genre:
From the makers of the world renowned “Wizardry Empire” titles, Starfish SD brings you the latest entry in their popular series of dungeon crawlers. Elminage Gothic, previously only available in Japanese on PlayStation Portable, now comes to PC offering a classic old school dungeon crawling experience with a dark, gothic twist!
In ancient times, the Great and Dark Gods clashed in a ferocious war over Man's control of the world, bringing despair and ruin to the lives of all humans. As the conflict raged, the Great Gods sought to vanquish the power of the Dark Gods through the faith of humans. In return for their faith, the Gods promised humans a world of peace and prosperity and thereby a contract between humans and the Great Gods was formed. By the contract, the Dark Gods could not interfere with the world of humans and were forever sealed inside their world of darkness. The people worshiped the Great Gods in thanks for their prosperity, and the world entered an era of peace. However… The humans grew complacent and allowed their faith to fade. Now, in the far-off realm of Ishmag, King Jardin ushers in an age of peace. Unknown to him, the dark powers have already begun reaching out in secret, planting the seeds to bring about the revival of the Dark Gods into the hearts of men. Foul and hideous creatures are emerging from the deep, treacherous caves of Tsun-Kurn and rumours of a rising evil are creeping across the peaceful lands.

Elminage: Gothic is a first-person dungeon-crawler modeled after the mechanics of classic titles in the genre, such as the early Wizardry games, with the THAC0 battle system. Gothic is the fourth game in the Elminage series. It is set in a world where Great gods clash with Dark gods for power through the faith of humans. You form a party of up to six characters, with sixteen classes available such as Hunter, Thief, Summoner and Valkyrie, and take them out into dungeons to fight monsters and gather loot. Most dungeons will have some quests you can do inside them. There are 400 types monsters to fight and lots of skills/spells to learn. Over 600 different types of items can be found. The game has a punishing difficulty. In some cases enemies can kill a character in one hit without being able to fight back. As such a grind-heavy approach is encouraged. The PC conversion is identical to the original game, but has higher resolution art and an improved user interface. The original PSP game was also only available in Japanese.
