What kind of beast 'Dante' is: rules, tricks and a few tips
The igrasu.ru catalog holds hundreds of games, and this is one people keep coming back to. Here is how it works and how to get the most out of it.
What this game is
Dante — overall winner of js13kgames 2022 and first place in the Mobile category.
How to play, in short
The infernal delivery service failed again: a shipment of evil souls spilled across an
infernal level under construction. You are Dante. Fly over the scaffolding of the underworld
in third person (or from the first-person cockpit), gather the 13 damned souls and take them
where they belong — the 8th circle. At the end Charon's boat carries you away.
Note: the game contains satirical lines about public figures — this is the original author's
intent and has been kept unchanged.
Controls
WASD / arrows to fly, E / click to pull levers, Esc for menu, M for music.
On a phone it uses two on-screen touch joysticks (movement and look) plus tap-the-lever.
Gamepad is supported.
A few final tips
- Check out the demo mode on the game page — the AI shows how it is played, and repeating it yourself gets much easier.
- Play in short sessions: the best results come with a warmed-up head.
Take note: it works great solo and in a "my high score is bigger" company. Ready to try? "Dante"
