A side scrolling, 2D action adventure game that also has RPG elements, what more could we want? What about a promising story, cute old school graphics as well as some dungeon crawling? Chasm is a game that has many different characteristics and boasts elements from hack n slash games, platformers and RPG’s. The game which is Discord Games latest endeavor,once available, will be playable on PC, Mac and Linux.

In Chasm you assume the role of a soldier who is passing through a remote mining town on your way home from a long war. You become trapped in the town, by supernatural forces and you discover that the miners have all disappeared. A long forgotten temple has been breached and an ancient evil, which had been in a deep slumber, was reawakened.  With your only option being a journey into the mines you find enemies to battle and bosses to defeat as you increase your abilities in your attempt to escape and return home.
