You have been reborn as a Deva, an enlighted being that follows the path of Buddha. Shakra, the Lord of the Devas, sent you to Naraka, the eternal hell, to liberate Humanity, from the chains of suffering, anger and despair. Your reward will be the wisdom that will make you ascend a new step to Nirvana.

Welcome to the world of Tibetan Buddhism mythology! Naraka's Hell has 10 levels. Each one of them has as many sublevels as the number of the current level. For instance, level 1 has only sublevel 1 (the easiest one), level 2 has sublevel 2 and sublevel 1... and finally level 10 has sublevel 10, sublevel 9, sublevel 8... sublevel 1. The demons of Naraka are constantly throwing devil chains to the Humanity, and you have to destroy them. There are four different types of chains, each one of them of a different color. You need to destroy at least one of each type to be able to finish the current sublevel or level. To finish the game, and reach Nirvana, you must finish all the 10 levels completely. Then something marvellous will happen.

To break the falling chains you need to use a unique combination of mudras (मुद्रा) that will be shown on the screen (down left) and you must follow correctly to destroy the closest chain. A mudra (मुद्रा) is a symbolic or ritual gesture able to accumulate or balance the energy of the body. Once you perform in the correct order the combo of mudras, the deva will clap the hands and a powerful stream of energy will be sent agains the chains, destroying the closest one.

You are not alone in your quest. Two Heavenly Kings (from left to right The West and North Kings) and are at your side trying to help you along Naraka. If you reach level 6, the Heavenly King of the West will give you an special combo that you can cast eight times. When you press fire+up, Palden Lhamo will be invoked and a death stream will destroy any existing chain. In the other hand, if you reach level 8, the Heavenly King of the North will give you "The Eye of Buddha", an special combo that you can cast eight times. When you press fire+down, the Eye of Buddha will stop time and you can use this moment to destroy as much chains as possible, one by one.

The more you deepen into Naraka's Hell the faster new chains are created, the faster they fall down to you, and the longer the required mudra combos are. Your path to Nirvana is not going to be easy!

You have initially three deva reincarnations (lives). When you reach levels 3,6 and 9 a new reincarnation is added, up to a maximum of 5 at the same time. They are represented by the little deva icons (down, right). Each time a chain reachs you at the bottom of the screen, you lose one reincarnation. If you lose all of them the game will finish.

Available in English, Spanish and Sanskrit versions.

The game was made in the MK1 engine by IADVD & Molomazo in 2022.
