About Shadowgate Classic

Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)

Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

Shadowgate Classic v1.0 (Shadowgate hack) by Magnus Nilsson How to use ---------- Apply the ips to Shadowgate (USA).nes CRC-32: 74CAEBE3 SHA-1: 1AF2C83B4724EFBFAC7FCA00FAB7F7A8E100CACA MD-5: 00D418519D02D55848596F525ED15D18 Changes ------- Enhances games graphics by - Using GBC port graphics where possible/suitable - New custom graphic where it's not - Increasing contrast and colourcount where possible - Changing palettes to be more cohesive and not so...weird (eg: less pink) - Cleaner font and other minor UI improvements - Includes the unused "goblin room"-music. It now plays in the Sphinx room. About ------ So after being really disappointed with the Shadowgate PC remake I'd really wanted to go back the original (the NES port of the original to be exact). Shadowgate has always had a special place in my heart thanks to it's great atmosphere. To be honest most of the games puzzles are fairly illogical trial and error runs and it has little to no replay value once you've solved it's riddles. But it has some of the best NES music ever and the sense of exploration is great since the graphics are so varied as each room has been given a unique design. The graphics in the NES port suffers from inconsistent quality and some poor palette choices that begs to be improved upon. Actually Kemco did this themselves when they re-released Shadowgate Classic for Gameboy Colour and I've based my hack on this version of the game. This has been my most ambitious hack so far with over 5000 tiles being edited and all of the rooms in the game has been redesigned. (C) Magnus Nilsson 2015
