Catacomb Armageddon is the sequel to Catacomb Abyss and the second part of the Catacomb Adventure Series, only now set in the present day. The levels featured, among others, towns, forests, temples, torture chambers, an ant colony, and a crystal maze. It was developed by Softdisk and was later republished by Froggman under the title Curse of the Catacombs.
Story[edit]
"You faced the challenge of your arch rival known as "Nemesis" in THE CATACOMB ABYSS 3-D. From deep below the foundations of his supposed crypt he hurled his powerful dark forces against you. But you prevailed! The beasts and creatures which were arrayed against you fell to the power of your intelligence and the force of your mighty magic. In apparent retreat, Nemesis has taken refuge beyond the walls of the Towne of Morbidity, re-establishing his rule over the forces of Evil. You are the wizard of renown who once again has been called upon to enter the domain of Nemesis and put a stop to his wicked ways!"
--INSTRUCT.TXT
Levels[edit]
"You begin your quest at the gate of The Sanctuary of the Dead, a remote and ancient place now populated by the smelly Time Wizards and other assorted frightful spectres. Rumour has it that some of Nemesis' new monsters from the future have made their way through the Time Gates into the present time. Don't be daunted! Pursue and prevail at all costs! One can only imagine what new sights, experiences, and threats await you as you venture forth across the Planes of Time in search of your ultimate victory over Nemesis."
