BOUND BY EVIL is my newest, and to this date, most expansive adventure map. Bound by Evil will try to bring back the retro-feeling of good ol' dungeon crawling, exploration and looting. Inspired by ARPG's like Diablo and Path of Exile, Bound by Evil is all about slaying evil monsters and acquiring powerful loot to build YOUR character!
Map is built in a retro-style with 8-bit music, heavy emphasis on exploration and all kinds of mazy and extremely dangerous dungeons all waiting to reward you with insane gear for your efforts!
PLAY IN UP TO 3 PLAYERS - EACH WITH A DIFFERENT CLASS
SLAY INCREDIBLE MONSTERS, CONQUER DANGEROUS DUNGEONS AND ACQUIRE POWERFUL GEAR - THAT'S THE SPIRIT OF BOUND BY EVIL!
This is PART I of the full adventure, Acts I-III, the rest of the Acts will be released sometime in the future and will not be separated from Part I, it'll be a full-fletched, massive ARPG in Minecraft!
