Description
Deathkeep is a 1st person perspective single-player "shooter" game with a touch of medieval AD&D gameplay in a full 3D environment.
STORY
Apparently you are another hero stuck in a underground cavern crawling with monsters (what else is new). This time you have to defeat an evil Necromancer located somewhere in the lower levels and to get to him you have to fight your way through 25 dungeons (each 8 floors, ouch!) filled with horrific monsters who never heard of dental care.
GAMEPLAY
You can choose 3 different characters as your main hero:
1. Dwarven male Fighter
2. Half-Elven male Fighter
3. Elven female Mage
These difference classes offer you different combat capabilities:
The Dwarven Fighter focuses more on melee close combat with minimal (axe-throwing) ranged and almost no magical capabilities.
The Half-elven Fighter or more precise: Ranger, focuses on non-magical ranged combat with his favorite bow. Possesses medium melee combat capabilities and some magical capabilities.
The Elven Mage focuses all her might in magical offense and defense. Spells may be found or learned as experience grows. Don't get too close to the enemy since a walking stick doesn't do much damage to bloodthirsty monsters!
Gameplay consists mostly of adventuring and flattening every living and non-living creature in your way. Destroying monsters allow your character to level-up and becoming more powerful as well as gaining new spells. The dungeons are filled with traps, streams, caverns, ledges and every possible obstacle to lose your way in this maze of mazes.
