About The Catacomb 3-D Adventure Series
*************************************************************************
THE CATACOMB ABYSS (TM)
The jewel of the GAMER'S EDGE collection of games. THE CATACOMB ABYSS is
the first of a three-part series of 3-D fantasy adventures using the 3-D
graphics game engine developed for GAMER'S EDGE by ID Software.
Featuring among the very best graphics and animations available on the
market today, THE CATACOMB ABYSS will startle you with its rich array of
monsters and scenarios that will keep you riveted for many, many hours!
You are the mighty wizard who has been called upon to perform feats of
magic and courage against the workings of your arch-rival, Nemesis.
Your quest will lead you into the dark realms of the underworld where you
will discover a myriad of bizzare and intriguing creatures set against
you. Armed with your wit and the power to hurl powerful magic weapons at
your opponents, you embark on an unforgettable adventure into the
3-D realm of the Abyss.
THE CATACOMB ARMAGEDDON (TM)
You faced the challenge of your arch rival known as "Nemesis" in
THE CATACOMB ABYSS. From deep below the foundations of his supposed
crypt he hurled his powerful dark forces against you. But you prevailed!
The beasts and creatures which were arrayed against you fell to the power
of your intelligence and the force of your mighty magic. In apparent
retreat, Nemesis has taken refuge beyond the walls of the Towne of
Morbidity, re-establishing his rule over the forces of Evil.
You are the wizard of renown who once again has been called upon to enter
the domain of Nemesis and put a stop to his wicked ways! You begin your
quest in The Towne of Morbidity, a dark and foreboding place long
abandoned by its beleagured citizens, replaced by denizens of wrought
magic and shadowy spells. It is believed that beyond the fallen walls of
the towne lies the Dark Forest which protects entry into the Lost City
of the Damned. Many brave but careless adventurers have fallen prey to
the mysterious creatures that inhabit those perilous haunts. Somewhere
beyond the Lost City you might find the legendary Temple of Vipers, the
seductive-but-deadly Lair of the Succubus, and many other terrible places
too numerous to recount.
THE CATACOMB APOCALYPSE (TM)
The exciting conclusion to the widely popular Catacomb Adventure Trilogy,
THE CATACOMB APOCALYPSE will thrust you headlong into a final conflict
with your arch rival Nemesis! But, this time Nemesis has something
especially wicked up his sleeve. No, not a "Dan Quayle for President"
tatoo, but something even more dreadful!
This time Nemesis has summoned fiends from the dark regions of the end
of time... robots, cyborgs, automatons... bizarre bio-mechanical creatures
engineered to fulfill one objective---your destruction! These beasts
from the future have joined forces with Nemesis and all of the other
fantasy creatures you might expect in the deep aybss of the Catacombs of
Despair. Should you be intimidated by this fearful quest? Yes. Should
you shy away from this final challenge? NO WAY!
