Cinemax bringing “The Keep” to the 3DS eShop this summer
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Cinemax has announced “The Keep” for the 3DS eShop with a release planned for summer.
The Keep is a new, old-school dungeon crawler. Players will experience real-time combat set in a first-person view.
Cinemax says the game’s core idea is “to bring the essence and dark atmosphere of RPGs from the past to a new platform with touch screen based controls for newcomers and fans of the genre alike.”
The Keep has players taking on a quest “to explore caves and mines filled with monsters to slain and puzzles to solve underneath and surrounding tower of evil sorcerer.” Apparently, you should expect to die quite a bit.
Cinemax has been working on The Keep for over 15 months. Why? The company explained:
Cinemax are trying to pour all their love for old-school games into the game and proving themselves that they were wrong saying after the release of the Inquisitor: “We will never ever make a RPG game ever again!”

[Book Club] Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward – Week 1
Posted on 10 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in 3DS, 3DS eShop, Book Club, Features | 2 Comments
Ah yes, that’s right kids: We’ve chosen Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward as the game to play for the next NintendoEverything Book Club! If you want to hear the reasoning behind it, check out the latest episode of the podcast, but otherwise feel free to pick up the game this week and start playing. The game can be picked up on the cheap via the Nintendo 3DS eShop; it’ll cost you $24.99.
We’ll have our first discussion about it on next week’s podcast, as per usual!
“How far do I have to get this week?”
The goal is simply to start playing. We’ll aim to get beyond any opening tutorial sections and a little ways into the story individually– plan to put in 2 to 3 hours.
“How can I participate in the discussion?”
If you have something you want to say about the specific section of Zero Escape that we’re going to be playing, send us an email! [email protected] is the place to do that.
Please refrain from discussing the game in general only– if you have a general observation, we’d love to hear about what specific parts of the game made you come to that conclusion!
