The Game
Story
Players guide a child-like soul named Ki on her journey through the afterlife. This modern fable was inspired by movies, games, and legends we love. It draws from the wonder of The Neverending Story, the hand-drawn aesthetic of Child of Light, and the Greek myth of Orpheus' descent into the underworld.
Game Play
Evergate is an expansive 2D puzzle-platformer featuring a unique align-to-shoot mechanic. Unleash the Soulflame and harness energy trapped within crystals to solve puzzles, find lost memories, and save a kindred spirit.
Evergate blends cerebral puzzles with skill-based execution. The goal of each puzzle is to reach the gate at the end. Some players may opt for a straightforward route while others will strive for the more difficult complete solution using every crystal. This offers challenges for casual and hardcore gamers alike.
