Wrath of The Demon

Wrath of the Demon is a computer game developed by a Quebec-based team called Abstrax. Versions for Atari ST, Amiga, PC and Mac were released in Early 1991. There was also a Commodore 64 version.

The player controls a hero on a quest to defeat a demon. Gameplay styles include hack 'n' slash (combat at close quarters), horse riding, etc.

The nine musical tracks are by David Whittaker. The programmers for the Amiga version were David Foster, Pierre Proulx and Martin Ross. The programmer for the PC version was Nicolas Chapados. The game was designed and arted out by Claude Pelletier and Stephane Ross. Also Michel Cadorette provided support during the production of AMIGA version in different areas.

Reviewer David Upchurch at the time claimed the Amiga version was better than Shadow of the Beast 2, calling it "technically (...) the most accomplished and polished game yet written for the Amiga". He gave it 884 out of a possible 1000 points. It features very smooth continuous scrolling during the horseback sequences.

Famous quotes containing the words wrath of, wrath and/or demon:

    Justice has its anger, my lord Bishop, and the wrath of justice is an element of progress. Whatever else may be said of it, the French Revolution was the greatest step forward by mankind since the coming of Christ. It was unfinished, I agree, but still it was sublime. It released the untapped springs of society; it softened hearts, appeased, tranquilized, enlightened, and set flowing through the world the tides of civilization. It was good. The French Revolution was the anointing of humanity.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    Neither the wrath of Heaven nor the attacks of enemies
    are as fatal as Pleasure alone when she infects the mind.
    Silius Italicus (26–101)

    The Spirit of Place [does not] exert its full influence upon a newcomer until the old inhabitant is dead or absorbed. So America.... The moment the last nuclei of Red [Indian] life break up in America, then the white men will have to reckon with the full force of the demon of the continent.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
