Diablo Meets Earthbound in Action-RPG, Kingdom of Night, Coming to Consoles and PC

Black Seven Studios has launched a Kickstarter campaign for its 1980s action-RPG, Kingdom of Night. The horror fantasy title, which is described as Diablo meets Earthbound, is set in small-town USA and is inspired by classic films.

Kingdom of Night is an isometric, story-driven game that comes with a massive map and a comprehensive quest system. Players will be able to customize their abilities and will have access to unique items and equipment to aid them in battling “nightmarish” creatures. Beating the game requires infiltrating lairs of five demon lords, and winning boss battles in each lair.

An overview of the story is as follows:

One night 198X in the small town of Watford, Arizona, a satanic cult has unwittingly summoned the ancient evil Baphomet catapulting the town into chaos. John, awoken by the kidnapping of his neighbor Ophelia, sets out into the town to fight back against the demonic invasion and rescue Ophelia before it’s too late.

Black Seven Studios is seeking US$ 10,000 for the project, and is already on track to meet its goal with another 28 days to go. If you want to support the game, a reward breakdown is as follows:
