Platformer Legend Returns! Dangerous Dave Goes Mobile


Platformer Legend Returns! Dangerous Dave Goes Mobile

WILDEC LLC and DEVOLER LLC in collaboration with Flat Rock Software announce the release of Dangerous Dave in The Haunted Mansion, a remake of a classic platformer game for mobile phones. You are to travel through the Mansion full of evil spirits, ghouls, and other threats in search for your missing brother. After the engaging outset come tons of levels packed with a fascinating platformer action featuring the cool main hero.

It's hard to believe that a decade and a half ago it took an entire PC to run a simple 2D game. Fortunately we've seen a remarkable progress in that field, and now PC games feature photo-realistic graphics while good old games, renovated with Java programming language, become available on cell phones. This time you can try out one of the greatest platformer hits, Dangerous Dave in The Haunted Mansion, right on the screen of your mobile. It's especially pleasant that while porting the game, the developers did their best in retaining its original gameplay, authentic look and feel. It's the same addictive Dangerous Dave that brought players of the previous decade hours and hours of amazingly fun entertainment.

Dangerous Dave in The Haunted Mansion isn't actually the first game of the original series. But it is proved to be the finest part of Dave's adventures, so that playing this game, you'll get all the best from the entire Dangerous Dave's series. By the way, the original game was brought to you by John Romero and John Carmack from ID Software. It was their first game with a shotgun in it. Later the company got famous for Doom and Quake series but it was their precursor, Dangerous Dave that first brought sensation into the world of games with its astonishing action.

Here's the trivia. Dave's brother was unlucky enough to be trapped somewhere in the Haunted Mansion. The fan of extreme adventures Dave sets out to look for his sibling. He carries a shotgun that deals with ghastly zombies in no time. But you can't always rely upon ammunition, so instead of shooting down enemies, you can avoid them with your leaps and bounds. The Mansion and its outskirts take plenty of levels and hide numbers of secrets which you should reveal to reach better score. Will you be able to escape all the traps and monsters, grab some treasures and save the life of your brother and yours as well?

Dangerous Dave in The Haunted Mansion has the unique feature: the close-ups of your downfalls. The cartoon violence became the cornerstone of Dangerous Dave series. Got clumsy and fell into a pit or got too close to a hungry zombie - the comic presentation of your decease will take away upset feelings and make you even more enthusiastic about beating challenges. Nice visuals and smooth animation along with the charismatic main hero make this game a worthy pick for mobile entertainment.
