Description

This release is a dual cartridge. It contains two "modern retro" titles, Alwa's Awakening and Cathedral, both of which are exploratory platformers. In Alwa's Awakening, a young girl named Zoe is called to another world to save them from a terrible fate, while in Cathedral, an unnamed knight awakens in the titular place of worship with no memory of who they are or what they were doing.

Both games are exploratory platformers in which the protagonist gradually earns new abilities by completing various milestones such as defeating bosses or finding particular items. Alwa's Awakening places a strong focus on using magic to solve puzzles (often with a strong dexterity element) while Cathedral features a mix of helpful items that aid traversal and assist in combat.

Alwa's Awakening was originally developed for modern systems, but the version on this cartridge is the 8-bit version that was ported to NES. Cathedral, meanwhile, is a modern game and was ported natively to Evercade, making it the first commercially released native game for the platform that is not running on emulation.
