Aug 28, 2009 17 years ago
Every thousand years a very rare planetary alignment makes Earth invisible to the Boss of the Bosses. Secret agencies of Heaven's and Hell's fighting each other for human souls, stop obeying any rules at all during that time. And even though Hell's agency traditionally does not obey rules, the balance between good and evil becomes gravely endangered when their opponents from Heaven also stop observing the rules! Dark Eaville, is on a mission to stop Heaven's agency and bring back the delicate balance between good and evil.
What it’s like
Infernal delivers a brisk, third-person action-adventure experience set in a supernatural Cold War. Players control Dark Eaville, an agent of Hell tasked with stopping Heaven’s rogue agency during a rare planetary alignment that suspends cosmic rules. The premise is a stylized good-versus-evil conflict handled with tongue-in-cheek humor rather than theological depth. Gameplay centers on visceral, over-the-shoulder combat featuring dual-wielding, telekinesis, and destructible environments. The tone balances gritty surveillance aesthetics with absurd demonic powers, creating a unique atmosphere that feels both tense and playful. While the narrative provides a simple framework for the action, the core appeal lies in the fluid mechanics and high-fidelity visuals. It is a spectacle-driven shooter where satisfying gunplay and environmental interaction take precedence over complex storytelling or character development.

Keep in mind The narrative and writing are thin, serving primarily as a backdrop for the action rather than offering deep engagement. The game has been removed from Steam and may present technical or compatibility issues on modern systems.
