Also, if you’re afraid to ruin your precious retro-cartridges, the Retro Freak will allow you rip and install all these games from the cartridge onto the console with the use of an SD card!
The actual console comes in two main parts: the largest piece is actually the cartridge adaptor while the smaller workhorse hides underneath emulating all your favorite old school titles.
Both versions also ship with a SNES-style controller, but it will also work with both modern gamepads such as the DualShock 3 and DualShock 4.
NOTE: Due to overwhelming interest, the first (initial) batch have sold out. The 2nd batch of Retro Freaks (Standard & Premium) are expected to arrive mid to late December. Orders placed on September 1, 2015 and onwards will receive the 2nd batch.
“The gothic look and horror themes in Penny Dreadful are a perfect fit for a game released during the Halloween season,” says Rizwan Virk, co founder and CEO of Midverse Studios. “We have tested this game with fans of Penny Dreadful and fans of Card Battle games, and so far players have been thrilled. The graphics, user experience, and gameplay allow the player to feel they are entering the dark and mysterious world of the Demimonde, a half world between reality and the supernatural introduced in the series. “
Penny Dreadful includes some of literature’s most terrifying characters, including Dr. Frankenstein and his monster, Dorian Gray, Mina Harker and other iconic figures from the novel Dracula, all of whom are available as collectible cards in Penny Dreadful: Demimonde.
This fast-paced game, with visual elements and cards inspired by the TV show, combines several popular methods of game play into a single integrated gaming experience. The gameplay includes a core Card Battle “player vs. player” mode, which allows players to battle one another using their team of characters and monsters. Players earn cards from quests that are built on the popular Match 3 mechanic, and then complete collections of cards. Characters, artifacts, and locations from the unique, visually appealing show are featured prominently in the game.
Quests inside the game are based on individual episodes of the show, resulting in a unique “Play and Watch” experience. As players complete quests for an episode on their mobile devices, they can easily link to and watch that episode directly on Apple iTunes or Google Play.
Penny Dreadful: Demimonde is built on Midverse’s Undead Engine, which can be used to bring characters, content and storyline from popular IPs, including sci-fi, horror and fantasy, and mold them into an engaging mobile gaming format.
