Infernax is a Retraux Dark Fantasy Metroidvania by Berzerk Studio (who also made Just Shapes & Beats and The Breach), released on February 15, 2022, available on the Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Microsoft Windows.The game follows a duke named Alcedornote (although his name can be changed to the player's liking which can even affect gameplay), who, after becoming disillusioned and tired of the violence that the crusades brought, returns to his homeland of Upel. Unbeknownst to him, in his absence it has now been infested by both the undead and demonic forces, with only a handful of living people still around. As his adventure begins, you shall decide the fate of this land and its people, whether for the better or for worse.The gameplay and overall style is reminiscent to Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, with upgrades for your equipments, and it includes a feature of a Morality System depending on your actions, and this reflects on your ending as a result.Here are the official, announcements and launch trailers from Berzerk Studio and Arcade Crew's YouTube accounts. You can also check out the game's website and Twitter account.On October 24, 2022, an update was released for Halloween which adds a secret character called "The Stranger" who's an homage to the Evil Dead series, which can be seen here.On April 5, 2023, an update titled "Deux or Die" was released which added local co-op and introduced the new optional 2P character of Cervul, Alcedor's squire with a completely different set of weapons and moves inspired by the Upel NPC guards. | |

And Then John Was a Zombie: In the Evil ending, Alcedor survives his encounter after killing Belphegor, but the evil within him turns him into an undead wretch who gets chased away by Upel's soldiers. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: Mayor Edgar is this in spades, and often relies on his bodyguard for actual combat. On the Good path, shortly after his bodyguard is disposed of, he's caught killing Joann and Timothy, and he immediately attempts to retreat into the Cultists' hideout, but the cultists leave him behind with Alcedor for revealing their hideout. He's less so on the Evil path — while his sole contribution in the attack on Darsov is to flip a table and hide behind it to block a ballista from shooting him, he did it primarily to protect Alcedor. | |

Evil Versus Evil | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1645005b | comment |
Evil Versus Evil: What the Evil and especially the Ultimate Evil path ultimately boils down to. Alcedor fights the demonic forces solely because he wants to be the one in charge of Upel when it's over, while almost any demons not directly controlled by the cult just want to kill everyone. It doesn't quite work out on the Evil route where he turns into a zombified wretch after killing Belphegor, but it does on the Ultimate Evil route where he not only kills off Belphegor and Abbadon, but successfully becomes a powerful demon and takes control of a demon army to become feared both on Earth and Hell. | |

Sheep in Sheep's Clothing: Caroline of Kastski. She sends you to slay a monster, saying he threatens her family. Said monster immediately protests he is no threat and asks to be spared, so she basically sent you to commit murder in cold blood. However, everything she says about herself and her target is the truth, and trusting her is the good choice both on paper and in practice. | |

Genre Shift | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: The game is mostly Castlevania-like taking place in medieval times and with most of your attacks needing to be up close and personal. But, if you take the path to the "Future" ending, the game will take a hard shift in genre, as Alcedor and Cervul get sent several years into the future, waking up in modern times, where they are greeted by the descendants of the people of Upel, who have kept holy machine guns that have been blessed several times and passed down several generations for safekeeping as weapons the heroes can use to finally purge the demonic forces. The game then turns into a Run-and-Gun action game like Contra, with Alcedor and Cervul even sporting similar outfits to the main protagonists in those games. The final battle of Ultimate Evil is an Unexpected Shmup Level where Alcedor and Cervul sprout demonic wings and fly through hell shooting fireballs at Abbadon. | |

The Worf Effect: On the Ultimate Good and Ultimate Evil paths, the normal Final Boss Belphegor is unceremoniously and easily killed by the True Final Boss Baphomet and Abbadon respectively in order to help hype up the inevitable showdown Alcedor and Cervul will have with them. | |

Power-Up Letdown | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_18683fc2 | comment |
Power Up Letdown: The Firestorm spell is an upgrade to the Thunderstorm spell on an Evil path. Despite its much longer duration, it's arguably less effective, as it requires the fireballs to actually touch enemies to deal damage (while Thunderbolt just hits everything on the screen), and it also deals less damage to bosses. Cervul's axes eventually get replaced with small bombs that explode into flames on the Evil route. While the fire does extra damage, it lacks the axes' ability to go through walls, heavily cutting the versatility of Cervul's standard attack. In the same route, Cervul's crossbow eventually gets replaced with poison daggers, which do poison enemies for bonus damage but has no upgrade to pierce enemies, which arguably made the crossbow THE weapon to go to for quick enemy clearing. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Quite a few of them to go around, some of them morality-based*They also have some minor changes during the Deux or Die update which has Cervul be alongside Alcedor: Coward: After killing their first enemy, Alcedor decides that he and Cervul should hightail it out of there, leaving on the ship they came from in the direction they arrived. Drowsiness: Alcedor chooses to sleep heavily in the inn rather than fight the demons and monsters infesting the land, as the village burns outside his window. Submission: After helping Robert take over Darsov, Alcedor submits to him and he and Cervul become his servants in conquering the lands. Good: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Belphegor, but both succumb to their wounds. Alcedor, however, is hailed a hero and a statue is erected in his honor. Evil: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Belphegor, but while Cervul succumbs to his wounds, Alcedor barely survives. However, he's little more than a zombified wretch who is chased away by the guards of Upel. Redemption: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Belphegor, but both succumb to their wounds. Despite the evil deeds they had done, their selfless sacrifice in saving Upel gives them a chance at redemption, and both are escorted to Heaven by two sets of two angels each before two demons can get to them. Ultimate Good: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Baphomet, giving them an ultimate victory against the demonic invasion. With Father Henry's help, they destroy the Necronomicon and Alcedor gathers an army of warriors to purge the rest of the evil from the lands. Ultimate Evil: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Abbadon, furthering their thirst for conquest. With Upel no longer enough for him, Alcedor uses the Necronomicon to start a reign of unholy terror across both Hell and Earth. Future: Alcedor and Cervul defeat Azazel in the future. They then celebrate the end of their quest and ride into the sunset on motorbikes, towards whatever the future may hold. | |

The Siege | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1c4adce1 | comment |
The Siege: The Ultimate Good path starts with Robert laying siege to Darsov with an army of cultists and Demons, requiring Alcedor to defend the town alongside Tancred and his men. It's inverted in the Ultimate Evil path, where Alcedor is the one helping Robert lay siege to Darsov with an army of cultists and demons against Tancred and his guards. | |

Cosy Catastrophe | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1dab76ed | comment |
Cosy Catastrophe: One would assume that burning the villages to the ground would render them useless to you, but if you leave and come back, life apparently is business as usual for the residents, most of which just go back to what they were doing despite the partly-destroyed houses and being lit on fire not long before. It's justified for the sake of gameplay: The stores and various questgivers still need to be available for the player to utilize. | |

The first choice of the game involves dealing with a possessed man. The good option of saving him causes him to turn into a Boss Battle. The evil option to kill him just ends him then and there, skipping the boss fight altogether. | |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: Alcedor can be killed in a myriad of ways by enemies and obstacles, which is shown in silhouette as blood and guts fly all over the screen. A creepy little song indicates how long it takes until he actually dies — if he gets beheaded, for example, the song promptly cuts off. Quite a few deaths have the song keep playing as Alcedor is subjected to a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown until the Fade to Black. | |

Good Is Not Soft | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_21f60711 | comment |
Good Is Not Soft: As the Content Warning about "ACTS OF VIOLENCE IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE" indicates, Alcedor is brutal towards those he goes up against, even in the Ultimate Good route where he is at his most virtuous. Examples include abandoning Mayor Edgar to be hanged even when the latter wets himself in fear, caving in Baphomet's skull, and holding up the severed head of a demon with a grim look on his face. | |

Go-to-Sleep Ending: Sleeping five times in the inn will cause an alternate ending which is a Homage and piss-take of the ending to Super Mario Bros. 2, which shows the world quite literally going to Hell in a handcart outside without a hero to save it, while Alcedor blissfully snoozes away. | |

Upgraded Boss | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_244b57ba | comment |
Upgraded Boss: The Skeleton Knight is an optional early-game boss with two attacks, a basic melee attack and a Shockwave Stomp Sword Plant. Bosses that are based off him appear later on, but with more health or extra attacks: Brutus is fought if the player kills Remus, and he not only looks like the Skeleton Knight with a pale-blue and green color scheme, but also fights exactly like them while sporting more health and attack power. The Champion of Rot fights like the Skeleton Knight but with an extra move, namely a dash attack that requires Skycall to jump over. The Champion of Hell in the Ultimate Good path has both the Shockwave Stomp and the dash attack, but also adds teleportation to its arsenal and its basic attack also causes a huge wave of fire to travel across the ground. | |

Failure Is the Only Option: The Ultimate Evil path has a quest that will be failed — killing Tancred, his guards, and optionally destroying their ship at the Shores of Upel before they can make land. While the guards and the ship can be destroyed, Tancred will survive and escape in a cutscene no matter how much damage you deal to him, as his Story-Driven Invulnerability only expires during the siege of Darsov if you assist the cultists. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The Old Hermit will promise you rewards if you burn the villages, but fight you to the death if you refuse. Remus asks for you to spare him and says he is harmless. While he will help you if you do so, he is still a sadist who brutally has two civilians killed. Robert, who in the beginning pretends to be just a vagabond, is one of the main villains in the game and the leader of the cultists. | |

My Master, Right or Wrong: As of the Deux or Die update, Cervul will unquestionably have Alcedor's back no matter what path the latter takes, adjusting his own morality based on Alcedor's. | |

Redemption Rejection | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_32785419 | comment |
Redemption Rejection: The guardsmen and priests plead with and urge Alcedor to change his ways once he turns evil and has negative morality. Depending on your actions, he can either avert and go for the Redemption ending or play this straight and commit to one of the Evil endings. Played straight in the mission to kill Tancred in the Shores of Upel, where Tancred pleads with Alcedor one last time to give up his evil ways, with no option but to attack him and his soldiers. | |

Helmets Are Hardly Heroic | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_33b4e7f | comment |
Helmets Are Hardly Heroic: The only kind of headgear on Alcedor's head is a red headband. This is even more noticeable in the intro where his fellow crusaders wear different kinds of crusader/knight helmets, and his squire Cervul wears a chainmail coif over his head. | |

Rank Scales with Asskicking | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_3441859b | comment |
Rank Scales with Asskicking: The high-ranking demons are far stronger than the monsters working under them. It's shown best when Baphomet easily kills his top enforcer, Belphegor, for his failure to keep Alcedor from getting the Necronomicon. The heroic warriors of Darsov follow this to the letter, which is well-shown in the Siege of Darsov if you are evil. The soldiers, while they have several moments of competence, often exist to get killed. The Sergeants are mostly quest-givers, but a couple of them can be very dangerous in battle. A Captain is enough to be considered a boss on his own if you face him. And finally, Tancred is immortal whenever he fights by your side, and a very tough fight when you face him in a duel. If Alcedor himself, who is above even Tancred in the Good path, being the Duke, helps Tancred in the Siege, he still can be the most valuable asset for the defenders of Upel. | |

Super Drowning Skills | |

Super Drowning Skills: Just like in some retro games, water usually means death (though not instantaneous) for our main character. Somewhat justified as Alcedor is decked out in full heavy armor (sans helmet), so he definitely isn't cut out for swimming. Not quite as justified with the three secret characters, who all dress a lot lighter. | |

I Can Rule Alone: On the Ultimate Evil playthrough after winning the Battle of Darsov, Robert will tell Alcedor to kneel before him and become his apprentice, declaring that together they will rule all the lands now that the cult stands triumphant. Choosing to submit results in the Submission ending, while choosing to kill Robert has Alcedor slam his sword through Robert's face and taking the Necronomicon for himself with the full intent of going even further than that by taking over Hell's legions for himself. | |

The Hero Dies | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_382a6399 | comment |
The Hero Dies: In both the endings of the Good and Redemption paths after the battle with Belphegor. While the ending of the former shows that the villagers are building a memorial statue of Alcedor in his honor, the ending of the latter shows that the angels and demons are waging war over the dying Alcedor and Cervul's souls, before the angels triumph and carry them away into the heavens above. This kinda sorta also happens in the Evil path ending, but it also doesn't (in two-player mode, Cervul succumbs to his wounds alongside him even in the Evil path). | |

Close-Range Combatant: While other humanoid enemies use throwing axes, spears, or magical fireballs as projectiles, Alcedor is restricted to just his mace or sword. In the late game, he finally gains the ability to enchant his weapon with Holy Light or Hellfire and have it shoot fireballs, but given the cost of the spell, this isn't something he can use constantly without a lot of mana potions. | |

Blue Is Heroic: Alcedor's magic in the Good path are colored light-ish/white-ish blue with his mace and armor becoming a whiter and brighter shade of blue when they reach their final upgrades. The co-op character Cervul wears a blue tunic to make himself stand out from Alcedor and if you continue to follow the Good path he will continue to wear that tunic. Meanwhile going for the Evil path will have him replace it with a red one instead. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In one Castle, you can find some wall chicken… and it turns out that meat that's been left to rot in a wall isn't very tasty or healthy. Hilariously, however, while Alcedor barfs his guts out, if Cervul is with him, the squire actually enjoys the rotted wall chicken, even saying that it reminds him of his mother's cooking. | |

Flunky Boss: Several bosses have the ability to spawn smaller enemies: The Necro fought in the barn only teleports around while summoning zombies. Mahalmon can spawn flying eyeballs from its belly. Kalamon can drop skeletons into the battle via cages. Apollyon can spawn flying eyeballs from its belly when it's flying. Crocell can spawn Imps or Roaches from the mouth on its belly. The Faceless One can use its hands to pull zombies out of the ground. Paimon's true form will often climb on the ceiling and drop showers of eggs that spawn Roaches. Baphomet can summon two different kinds of enemies: Demonic bats from a pentagram symbol, or a swarm of eyeballs from its belly. | |

After killing the elder demon, the transformed duke and squire proceed to take over Hell's legions to launch an renewed campaign of terror across Earth. | |

You Have Failed Me: In the Ultimate Good path, Mayor Edgar attempts to retreat into the cultists' hideout tunnel to save himself from Alcedor and his guards. Seeing that he revealed the hideout location to Alcedor, the cultists collapse the tunnel with a fireball and leave Edgar to be captured by Alcedor for punishment. Granted, what Edgar did goes beyond "failure" into "actually screwing his allies over", so it's a little hard to blame them. In the Ultimate Good Ending, Baphomet kills Belphegor for failing to stop Alcedor from getting this far. | |

Dual Boss: A number of the battles in the Urzon Citadel on the Ultimate Good Ending path involve facing rehashes of previous bosses, only that you're now attacked by two of them, one from each side. They're usually weaker and more vulnerable than their earlier boss variants, but still tough fights. The Ultimate Evil path pits you against an Axe Sergeant and a Sword Sergeant at the same time during the siege of Darsov. Thanks to their tendency to jump around and corner the player as well as the former's projectile spam, it can be a surprisingly tough fight for two relatively minor human characters. | |

Villain Forgot to Level Grind: In the Ultimate Good path, the third Cultist base you raid has the Cultist High Priest summon an Aberration to fight Alcedor.

The High Priest behind said Aberration actually has more health and deals more damage than it. | |

Villains Want Mercy: Edgar's last words when he's about to be hanged for his crimes is him pathetically begging for his life and promising to be good from then on. Alcedor's response is to bluntly tell the executioner to get on with it. | |

Rated M for Manly | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_4da6ac | comment |
Rated M for Manly: You play as a hardened Crusader that bashes and slices giant demons to death in orgies of blood and gore. This becomes more prominent and over-the-top in the "Future" ending: Alcedor is shown shoving his machinegun into a giant demon's body and shooting, then generally firing in the sky while screaming as blood and organs fall from the sky and later Riding into the Sunset with his Cool Bike. Manly? You bet! | |

Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: While not as prominent as his mace or magic, Alcedor's shield provides useful cover against most projectiles launched at his direction. Evil Alcedor drops this in favour of a longsword/claymore. Cervul the trusty squire can carry a pavise (a large oblong shield) to protect both him and Alcedor. | |

Book Ends: The start of the game features an Aberration smashing through the gateway into Darsov. On an Ultimate Evil playthrough, this will happen again, only this time with Alcedor on the side of the invaders. On an Ultimate Good playthrough, a stronger Aberration is smashed by the gate of Darsov instead. | |

Robert the cultist leader is this in both ultimate paths. In the good one, he goes down like a punk, shot by Tancred's men. In the evil one, you kill him and take his place, even mocking his delusions. Considering he caused a lot of damage and is implied to be guilty for the invasion just as much as Baphomet is, he deserves it. | |

Devil, but No God: Downplayed. We definitely know that Heaven and angels exist, as they whisk away Alcedor's soul in the Redemption ending. But despite all the demonic forces wreaking havoc in the physical world, we don't see any angels or forces of Heaven taking an active role to fight them off. | |

Castlevania (Franchise) | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_5cc0d020 | comment |
The game is mostly Castlevania-like taking place in medieval times and with most of your attacks needing to be up close and personal. But, if you take the path to the "Future" ending, the game will take a hard shift in genre, as Alcedor and Cervul get sent several years into the future, waking up in modern times, where they are greeted by the descendants of the people of Upel, who have kept holy machine guns that have been blessed several times and passed down several generations for safekeeping as weapons the heroes can use to finally purge the demonic forces. The game then turns into a Run-and-Gun action game like Contra, with Alcedor and Cervul even sporting similar outfits to the main protagonists in those games. | |

Platform Battle | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_5d356030 | comment |
Platform Battle: Alastor's battle is an Auto-Scrolling Level which involves various, semi-randomly placed layers of floating platforms over a pool of instant-death acid where Alastor pops up from. Azazel's battle takes place on six platforms above the lava, and his attacks can knock Alcedor off the platforms if the player is not careful. To make matters dicier, Azazel will periodically spew three fireballs which temporarily take out any platforms they land on. | |

Sacrificial Lamb: The game certainly can't get enough of these, with a lot of NPCs that get introduced as semi-important, only to get killed later. The trope takes a literal turn when you start actually sacrificing them on behalf of the cultists. With special mention going to the couple, Joann and Timothy: One of them will die on the evil path, but on the good path, they both die. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Alcedor always takes center stage in all the cutscenes, meaning the secret bonus characters will show up as regular Alcedor in them. The worst case of it is when going down the future route with Maxime Gunn: Normally when playing as Alcedor, you no longer have access to your skills when in the future (you'll still have your spells) since you're essentially a new character. This is still the case as Maxime Gunn despite having all the appropriate gun-centric upgrades — you will lose all of them when in the future. The non-Ultimate paths end with Alcedor and Cervul being mortally wounded and the former either dying or becoming a zombie (Cervul always dies regardless). This happens even if you didn't take a single hit during the final battle. | |

Badass Normal: Tancred's forces don't employ any magic, but they're still able to repel the undead that stalk the countryside, and despite their dark magic, the cultists have to spend almost the entire game mustering a force large enough to take Darsov. Should Alcedor and Cervul turn evil, they'll be greeted with a ballista and Tancred, as well as his captain and sergeants, show themselves to be some of the most dangerous enemies in the game. Special mention goes to the Axe Sergeant, who fights like a ninja that jumps around and throws unlimited axes everywhere, and Tancred, who can not only take a beating, but can dish out one as well with his surprising mobility. Just like the soldiers of Upel, Cervul doesn't have any magic of his own (at least in the Good paths). While Alcedor is a Magic Knight, Cervul is a simple squire with a relatively normal arsenal, consisting of: throwing axes, a crossbow, a pavise, and a banner. Yet he can keep up with Alcedor with no problem, as they are Boring Yet Practical. | |

| Infernax (Video Game) / int_65acf9db | comment |
He Knows Too Much: The cult will attempt to silence Handsome Hans despite him being a member because he keeps blabbing about their location and activities to everyone who will listen (and many who would prefer not to) and he's too big of a security risk. On the good path, Alcedor will have to save him from an assassination attempt in order to obtain the password for the Tohan Passage hideout and Hans runs off to go into hiding...in Kadjanto Peak, just under the hideout there. On the evil path, the cultists in the Tohan Passage hideout will task Alcedor himself with silencing Hans, which he can do or spare him to run off... assuming that Alcedor doesn't lose his patience listening to Hans' poor attempt at begging and strangles him before the prompt can even come up. | |

Extreme Omnivore: Of the Unpicky Eater variety. When Alcedor ends up eating some rotted wall chicken, he immediately barfs out large amounts of green bile. If Cervul is with him, however, the squire will actually be sucking some green residue off of his gauntlet's fingers and say that it reminds him of his mother's cooking. He must have been training an iron stomach. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The player will need to complete the majority of sidequests to reach the Ultimate Good or Evil endings, and some are hidden in obscure places or require using a spell in ways that aren't obvious. There's a questgiver in a lone hut on the Shores of Upel, the starting area. The player has little reason to backtrack to this area, and if they happen to do so at night, then the door will remain locked. An Evil sidequest involves burning all three villages. The game provides no clue that the way to do this is by casting the Thunderstorm or Firestorm spell. Likewise, doing so is also the only way to destroy the boat that Tancred and his guards arrive in on an Ultimate Evil path. Some events like a mugging or the caged beast only take place if the player travels through a specific area at night. The extremely useful Teleport spell is located in a random hut the player cannot access on their first trip, on a path the player has little reason to return to. The player is used to using their Thunderstorm spell as an attack, so it may not occur to them to use it to summon the Stormheim dungeon, which only appears during storms. Talking to the people at the Stormheim Shore inn will mention them seeing the castle during a storm, but those are the only hints you'll get. | |

Underused Game Mechanic: The Skycall and the Holy Charge abilities are required to get past the game's platforming challenges and are useful to avoid enemies and their projectiles. Guided Strike generates a Shockwave Stomp, but its ability to break floors is only ever needed once, as part of the path leading to Hidden Crypt. It doesn't help that said attack is the reward for the optional mission where Alcedor has to face Mammon. | |

Combat Tentacles: Kalamon's guts can unfurl to attack Alcedor from above. Leviathan has tentacles in place of legs, and can use them to sweep the area when it goes underwater. Should one of these kill Alcedor, it will proceed to impale him brutally. Likewise, its Degraded Boss version the Corruptors of Mind also sport the same tentacle sweep attack, albeit slower. Halphas has a tendril in each hand that it can use like a Grappling-Hook Pistol, allowing it to grapple across the room. Should it kill Alcedor, it uses one to throw him hard against the wall. Abbadon has a multitude of giant tentacles, which it can use as a Death Course that must be shot at to deter them, or attack from the top and bottom of the screen after tracking Alcedor's position. | |

Not Quite the Right Thing | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_7a19a69b | comment |
Not Quite the Right Thing: Played With in the very first choice of the game. Alcedor encounters a possessed man who begs the crusader to kill him. Doing as he says and killing him to end his life and misery might seem like a good idea, but his wife will witness this and despise Alcedor for killing her husband. Attempting to save him will cause the demon possessing him to painfully and messily transform him into the first boss, and when killed, his wife will also witness this, but understand that Alcedor tried to save him, giving him more respect and a sidequest. | |

Badasses Wear Bandanas | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_7b6e6602 | comment |
Badasses Wear Bandanas: Alcedor wears a red headband, a rather defining part of his outfit. It's the only original part of his outfit that he keeps on his person in the "Future" ending, with his armor being replaced by a more modern yet still badass tanktop, finger-less gloves, pants, and boots. He wouldn't look out of place in Contra. In the same path when playing with Cervul, he replaces his chainmail coif with a matching blue bandanna instead. | |

Obviously Evil | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_7c0bfb83 | comment |
Obviously Evil: While the karma meter isn't visible, it doesn't have to be, as the evil characters you can side with all play this straight. Robert and his cult. Even before their true nature is officially revealed and they're posing as simple vagabonds, they look and act incredibly shifty and seem nonplussed about the demonic invasion. Edgar, the Mayor of Kastski, treats his citizens very horribly and appears just as shifty as Robert. Turns out, he's also working for the cultists. There are two different sidequest-givers who request Alcedor to do rather horrific deeds for them (burning the villages, and destroying Arkos' dam to flood it). The latter even speaks in a way that is extremely suspicious. If Alcedor refuses them outright, they drop their human guise and turn out to be ghostly monsters that will attack him. Whenever you have to side with the humans or a hideous monster, siding with the monster is always the evil choice. | |

Potty Failure: In the Ultimate Good ending path, this happens to Mayor Edgar when he's caught by Alcedor and his soldiers, and brought to the gallows for hanging. The section of his robes around his groin gets a darker patch that spreads downwards, indicating that he pissed his pants. | |

Beast with a Human Face: Before its boss fight, Crocell is initially shown as a green-colored woman's face in the dark before the rest of its misshapen, frog-like body is revealed. The Lord of Maggots appears to be a giant green maggot with the head of an old, bearded human bishop wearing a black, pentagram-marked mitre. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: The playable wizard character starts with atrocious defense, and each attack will drain his mana, so early game will be focused on picking your fights and managing your mana so you won't be caught off-guard and unable to fight back. But his mana regenerates, so if you can get far enough to get the screen-clearing Thunderstorm or Drain Life, you get to spam it with impunity. | |

BFG: In the path towards the "Future" ending, Alcedor and Cervul wake up in modern times and have their weapons replaced with machine guns. Ones that have been repeatedly blessed then passed down through multiple generations and marked with multiple holy sigils. They can easily defeat most foes, even when they also use technology. They're the only weapon that can put the Final Boss Azazel down for good. | |

WarmUpBoss | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_883f3732 | comment |
Warm-Up Boss: Paimon can be fought four screens into the starting area of the game, and its fire breath attack is very predictable and avoidable. Even if it corners Alcedor, it cannot hit the very rightmost edge of the screen. Should the player decide to skip Paimon, the Aberration would count as this. Its giant cleaver is a slow and easily telegraphed attack that can be avoided by either staying away, or by crouching at a short distance in front of it. Furthermore, it also gets Left Stuck After Attack for a short while, making it unable to attack until then. You also have the help of some guards who provide a good distraction at the very least. | |

Skippable Boss: The very first boss Paimon can be skipped entirely if Alcedor chooses to kill instead of save the possessed man. This also locks you out from fighting Paimon's true form. On the Ultimate Good and Ultimate Evil paths, the normal Final Boss Belphegor is unceremoniously killed by either Baphomet or Abbadon, respectively. On the Future path, you never even meet him. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Several bastards get what they deserve in both paths, mostly the good one. Mayor Edgar is not just incompetent and a coward, but a traitor as well. In the good path, he is hanged for his crimes. The cultist Philippe gets a very karmic one if you help Wilfred the injured soldier. When the cultist returns to kill him a second time, Wilfred simply kills him first with an axe in the face. You can murder Remus the skeleton in cold blood, despite his insistence on being harmless. While he will help you if you spare him with no backstabbing, this is still the good choice, as not only is the person who asked for a hit on him exactly right about him being a threat to her and her family, but he also has Brutus torture a wizard to death to give you a spell if you spare him. Robert the cultist leader is this in both ultimate paths. In the good one, he goes down like a punk, shot by Tancred's men. In the evil one, you kill him and take his place, even mocking his delusions. Considering he caused a lot of damage and is implied to be guilty for the invasion just as much as Baphomet is, he deserves it. | |

Demonic Possession | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_906365a2 | comment |
Demonic Possession: A game filled with demons would naturally have a few people possessed by them: The very first karmic choice has Alcedor deal with a possessed man. Killing him will end his life; attempting to save him will cause Paimon, the demon possessing him, to messily and painfully transform him into the first boss. A sidequest involves having to cure a woman's possessed husband. Depending on whether Holy Light or Hellfire is used on him, he will either be purged of the demonic influence and reunite with his wife, or have his transformation into a demon fully completed before killing his wife. One quest has a priest possessed by an unknown demon, as he floats in the air with ominous pink clouds surrounding him. Alcedor can deal with this by either finding Gregor to exorcise the man, or by simply killing the possessed man. Getting killed by a Night Fiend or a Night Beast will cause them to jump inside Alcedor before making him violently explode. | |

Evil Is Easy | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_9492d6a5 | comment |
Evil Is Easy: Several evil choices tend to require less effort than the good choices, with many of them involving less combat or even avoiding boss fights altogether: The first choice of the game involves dealing with a possessed man. The good option of saving him causes him to turn into a Boss Battle. The evil option to kill him just ends him then and there, skipping the boss fight altogether. The quest for the brigand on the bridge has the brigand attempting to bribe Alcedor into letting him go after catching him threatening an old man. Should Alcedor take the Good option to refuse the bribe, he'll have to fight and kill the brigand in combat. The Evil option of accepting the bribe skips the fight and Alcedor gets a nifty extra 100 gold on top of saving the old man the brigand was threatening (though the old man decides to leave the area entirely for his own safety) and the monetary reward for completing the quest anyways. Two different quest givers will ask Alcedor to destroy Arkos' dam and burn all the villages. Should Alcedor take the Good option of never accepting, the former will turn into a Wolfpack Boss against a group of Specters, while the latter turns into the Faceless One, a full-fledged Boss Battle. The Evil option doesn't require doing any combat when complying with their orders. To deal with the possessed priest, the Good option requires finding Gregor to exorcise the man, and Alcedor needs to kill a werewolf boss to access Gregor's abode. The Evil option is to simply slay the possessed priest there and then. There are two ways to deal with the murderous skeleton Remus. The good option of slaying him will save his target, but his ally Brutus will burn Remus' house and turn the way out into a Death Course, and Alcedor is forced to fight Brutus later on in order to obtain the Dove spell. The evil option of sparing Remus will cause him to kill his target, but Alcedor gets a safe exit from his house, a slightly higher gold payout, and the later fight against Brutus is skipped entirely while Alcedor gets the Fiend spell in a cutscene. The Ultimate Evil path lacks a long endgame dungeon with tons of enemies and bosses compared to the Ultimate Good path, although the Attack on Darsov does contain its own Boss Bonanza. Also, you have unlimited ranged attacks and flight against Abaddon, while Baphomet is a race between his health and your magic. | |

Evil Costume Switch | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_9cb5e4bb | comment |
Evil Costume Switch: If Alcedor and Cervul join the cultists, they will change their white/blue crusader attire to a red set, and their armor upgrades get darker instead of lighter, eventually turning Red and Black and Evil All Over. | |

Evil Virtues | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_9eeb5455 | comment |
Evil Virtues: For a bunch of murderers and demon-worshippers, the cultists are very loyal to each other. Especially Edgar, who's a Dirty Coward in all paths except the evil one, where he'll actually warn Alcedor about the ballista being shot at him and throws a table sideways to shield them both from it. In fact, the only cultist capable of betraying them is Alcedor himself, by way of abandoning their cause mid-game or backstabbing Robert in the endgame, and in the only other two cases the cultists betray someone, Handsome Hans and Mayor Edgar, it was pragmatic, as they became more trouble than he was worth with their incompetence and failures. | |

| Infernax (Video Game) / int_a0a005d1 | comment |
Protagonist Journey to Villain: It's possible for Alcedor to slip into villainy depending on his choices and actions, eventually joining the cultists and, in the Ultimate Evil ending, completing his transformation from protector to unholy scourge. Same goes when he brings Cervul with him, as his trusty squire follows his master no matter what. | |

Left Stuck After Attack | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_a4582f94 | comment |
Should the player decide to skip Paimon, the Aberration would count as this. Its giant cleaver is a slow and easily telegraphed attack that can be avoided by either staying away, or by crouching at a short distance in front of it. Furthermore, it also gets Left Stuck After Attack for a short while, making it unable to attack until then. You also have the help of some guards who provide a good distraction at the very least. | |

Moral Event Horizon | |

Moral Event Horizon: In-universe, sacrificing Jarvis to the cultists will deem Alcedor and Cervul beyond redemption and lock players out of the good paths. Before this, they can commit a few evil deeds but still be redeemed. The achievement unlocked for doing this is appropriately named "Devoid of Redemption". However, if you do the minimum amount of evil quests and deeds needed to unlock the mission to sacrifice Jarvis, do so, and then do enough good deeds to push your morality back into the positive, it's possible for Alcedor and Cervul to get the Redemption ending. | |

Difficulty Spike | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_c6ae4c86 | comment |
Difficulty Spike: While Valeshire Keep and Cobbelton Necropolis can be fairly challenging to new players, they are somewhat forgiving in their enemy and obstacle placements and offer short routes to the altars outside if you need to recover your Health and Magic. Stormheim Castle however is a very different story; Not only do you have to interpret a puzzle to summon the dungeon in the first place, once inside most of your platforming involves jumping on top of rotating water wheels above water that will instantly kill you, and the dungeon is filled with Deep Ones that will leap out of the water to chase you down, as well as Red Eyes with the same movement pattern at the notorious Medusa Heads from Castlevania. Both of these can knock you down into the water, yet even should you survive these odds, there are no shortcuts back to the entrance this time. This mens you will have to retread all previous rooms with respawned enemies to replenish your Health and Mana. Good luck! | |

The heroic warriors of Darsov follow this to the letter, which is well-shown in the Siege of Darsov if you are evil. The soldiers, while they have several moments of competence, often exist to get killed. The Sergeants are mostly quest-givers, but a couple of them can be very dangerous in battle. A Captain is enough to be considered a boss on his own if you face him. And finally, Tancred is immortal whenever he fights by your side, and a very tough fight when you face him in a duel. If Alcedor himself, who is above even Tancred in the Good path, being the Duke, helps Tancred in the Siege, he still can be the most valuable asset for the defenders of Upel. | |

Weak Boss, Strong Underlings | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_ce147566 | comment |
Weak Boss, Strong Underlings: Mayor Edgar is a Cutscene Boss who drops his sword once confronted by Alcedor. His goon is about twice as strong as the normal cultists. Remus is much weaker than Brutus, as the former goes down in a single hit and the latter is probably the strongest skeletal enemy. However, the former gives him orders because he is far more calculating, while Brutus is destructive and just smart enough to set traps. Played with with Robert. His fighting skills are nonexistent, while the cultist leaders put up more of a fight. However, his summoning skills are the strongest, as his officers needed rituals to summon one demon, while Robert can summon a whole army of skeletons without rituals. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: During the Ultimate Good questline where you need to raid the three Cultist hideouts, it's possible to back out and let Tancred and his guards clear two of them instead of following them in to assist them. Doing so will result in casualties and Tancred harshly chewing out Alcedor (and results in an appropriately named achievement, "Sins of Omission"). This can't be done for the third hideout, however, as you're forced to go in before Tancred's men due to an important story cutscene. | |

| Infernax (Video Game) / int_d3c2c6b2 | comment |
Spread Shot: Many bosses and some enemies can shoot their projectiles this way. Also, when playing as Future Alcedor or Maxime Gunn, using the Holy Light or Hellfire spell will make your shots do this. | |

Eyes Do Not Belong There | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_d57dfae4 | comment |
Eyes Do Not Belong There: A good number of demons have eyes in unnatural spots, and these are often their weak points: Kalamon has eyes replacing its nipples, which goes along with its Belly Mouth to give the appearance of another face on its torso. Leviathan has an eye in its belly that can fire out a Wave-Motion Gun. It also has eyes on its hands, which it uses to cast fire spells. Apollyon has an eye in its belly that opens up to fire out fireballs or spawn eyeball mooks. Crocell's mouth opens up to reveal a giant eye that fires a Spread Shot of fireballs. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Casual Mode can be switched on at any time (but can't be turned off again) and it removes the Checkpoint Starvation element of dungeons by adding a checkpoint midway through that replenishes the player's health and lives, as well as letting them teleport to the entrance should they need to stock up on items. It also grants the player an extra life and doesn't lock them out of any content. After a patch, the pits of lava and water no longer kill instantly. If the player wants to avoid the stronger enemies that come out at night or needs a specific time of day for a quest, they can rest at an inn for free or buy a cheap Time Warp spell from the second town and swap from day to night. Most platforming-focused areas (like Stormheim Shore) don't have more enemies during the night, since the enemies there are supposed to be a distraction, not the main challenge. No matter how much damage Evil Alcedor does to the towns, he can still buy items from shops and stock up on potions for free. The fact that the healing potions are for free at all makes the game easier in general. The Hell Cherubs in the Ultimate Good path is a Dual Boss that pits Alcedor against two degraded versions of Apollyon. Unlike Apollyon, who can only be damaged in the belly when it's open, the Hell Cherubs' faces also become vulnerable to damage when their bellies are open, allowing the battle to be much quicker. The Corruptors of Mind in the Ultimate Good path is a Dual Boss that pits Alcedor against two degraded versions of Leviathan. If one of them is using the tentacle sweep attack (which must be jumped over), the other will never use the Wave-Motion Gun (which must be crouched under). | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: One secret ending is achieved if, after killing the first enemy, you return to the boat and choose to sail away from the now cursed land of Upel. Doing so gets the game to mock you by unlocking the "Book of the Coward", whose cover is a crying portrait of Alcedor. | |

Short Range Guy, Long Range Guy | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_df18bfaf | comment |
Short Range Guy, Long Range Guy: Alcedor and Cervul, respectively. Alcedor starts out with a basic mace and shield, allowing him to consistently deal damage in close-quarters while shrugging off certain projectiles. Cervul, on the other hand, starts out with an unlimited amount of throwing axes, which travel in an arc, thus leaving him vulnerable up close. Cervul can also unlock a crossbow with infinite bolts, but it needs to be reloaded between shots, so the result is that he's still left open. | |

Press Start to Game Over | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_e4c91c25 | comment |
Press Start to Game Over: It's possible to die before fighting your first enemy by jumping off the boat into the water; however, the boatman will repeatedly try to stop Alcedor and push him back until he finally gives up after eight times. Because of this, it's actually much faster to get a Game Over from being killed by the first enemy within 2 hits, or earn a Non-Standard Game Over by killing it, returning to the boat, and choosing to get out of there. | |

Death Course | |
| Infernax (Video Game) / int_e53a34aa | comment |
There are two ways to deal with the murderous skeleton Remus. The good option of slaying him will save his target, but his ally Brutus will burn Remus' house and turn the way out into a Death Course, and Alcedor is forced to fight Brutus later on in order to obtain the Dove spell. The evil option of sparing Remus will cause him to kill his target, but Alcedor gets a safe exit from his house, a slightly higher gold payout, and the later fight against Brutus is skipped entirely while Alcedor gets the Fiend spell in a cutscene. | |

Two different quest givers will ask Alcedor to destroy Arkos' dam and burn all the villages. Should Alcedor take the Good option of never accepting, the former will turn into a Wolfpack Boss against a group of Specters, while the latter turns into the Faceless One, a full-fledged Boss Battle. The Evil option doesn't require doing any combat when complying with their orders. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: The intro of the game shows us Alcedor, tired of the violent crusades. Many crusaders took the journey, thinking that they were to liberate the Holy Lands, but they only found harmless families and pacific cities. For him, the crusade was anything but holy. Skip to the Ultimate Good ending, where Alcedor is wielding a Holy weapon, a relic from the heavens, and he creates the true crusade, where righteous knights will drive demons away from the lands of Darsov. | |

Dude, Where's My Respect?: Averted, very notably. Since Alcedor is a noble, some people respect him from the very beginning. Also, every sapient character you help, from the town guards to the sparable villains, will be really grateful and might even help you in return. Only the caged monster attacks you for your help, and it is implied to be mindless. | |

Video-Game Lives: Alcedor can buy extra lives (represented by a heart) in stores and starts with one on Casual Mode. If Alcedor dies, he restarts the area he was in with one less life unless he had none, in which case it's back to the last save point. Save points incidentally replenish any lost lives. Inputting a specific code into the Game Wizard will give Alcedor 99 lives right off the bat. | |
