Game Classification

The Inferno is a mobile puzzle game based on Dante Alighieri's poem Inferno, the first part of the Divine Comedy. The player takes control of Dante who travels through the five circles of hell in search for his beloved Beatrice. To do so he has to activate the portal of each of the game's 141 levels. This is done by collecting the lost souls of the dead. The player controls sees the action from a top down perspective and controls Dante with a virtual d-pad on the touchscreen. Since Dante is in hurry to save Beatrice he needs to complete the levels within a time limit. The game features two different endings depending on how long it takes for the player. It's not only the time that is against him though. As he travels through hell he will have to overcome many different traps such as falling tiles and spikes shooting out of the floor and deadly enemies such as ghosts and other servants of hell. Dante can't fight and therefore a large part of the game is about memorizing the enemies movements, because a brief touch is enough to kill him. Luckily each level has a few checkpoints so it's not necessary to restart the whole level after being burned by a fireball. [source:mobygames]
