Fight as a Werebear and Become a Demon Lord in ‘Demon’s Rise: Path to Damnation’

The first Demon’s Rise ($7.99) game was a lot of fun, thanks to it having a ton of stuff to do, and a roster of character classes that was large and varied. Look, if you’ve ever wanted to rock out with a party containing a minotaur and a walking cannon, Demon’s Rise is the game for you. But what if you want to be evil instead? That’s what followup Demon’s Rise: Path to Damnation promises, the ability to possibly become a demon lord yourself.

Demon's Rise Werebear

The same core strategy gameplay is here, but now you’ll have an evil party to play with. Your actions and choices in battle and the campaign will allow you to gain or lose favor from the dark gods, with bonuses to be had for pleasing them, and possibly the ability to become a true demon lord. The story will be presented in a gamebook format, with branching paths to go through. Combat will feature many of the same elements as the original game, but with a new shadows system, arcane totems to power up, and a revamped critical hit system.

Demon's Rise Path to Damnation

Demon’s Rise: Path to Damnation will be episodic with IAP for future episodes. The character roster will be trimmed down for this followup, with 10 planned for the initial release, but one of those characters will be a werebear, so, y’know, it’s not all bad. The current target release date is Q1 2016.
