In Demonsgate, players take control of a single customisable mercenary, and investigate the strange overlapping of realms that has begun to warp the very nature of reality.
This is an unofficial text-adventure, based in the Gloomhaven universe—more specifically, in Gloomhaven’s sister city, Demonsgate.
Following my work writing on Gloomhaven Digital, I found myself enamoured with Demonsgate, a new city and region of the world created for the game’s Guildmaster Mode which I helped worldbuild.
I then decided to create this text adventure Demonsgate as a way for myself and others to explore the region as I saw it in my head, taking inspiration from the seminal Fabled Lands gamebook series.
The work is still in a demo stage at the moment, which was used as a university assessment, and I am adding to it when I can.
The project was written in the Ink narrative coding language, while the web game itself runs through through Calico, rather than Ink’s native engine.
Known Bugs/Issues
Options surrounded by X’s (XLike ThisX) currently have no effect, but are currently being worked on for my next update to the game.
