Shadow Madness

Shadow Madness is a role-playing video game developed by Craveyard Studios and published by Crave Entertainment for the PlayStation. Set in the world of Arkose, the player takes the role as Stinger, whose town has just been destroyed as a result of a mysterious plague that is spreading quickly across the land. Stinger meets many friends and foes on his way to finding out how the chaos started and how it can be stopped. In traditional RPG fashion, gameplay consists of exploring towns and dungeons, collecting equipment and items, and interacting with non-player characters in environments featuring 3D polygonal models set on 2D pre-rendered backgrounds. Random, turn-based battles take place in fully-3D environments, where the player can execute various attacks and spells against enemies, gain experience points, and increase characters' attributes.
