Hellboy: Web of Wyrd is a roguelike action brawler with an original story created in partnership with Dark Horse Comics and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. When an agent of the B.P.R.D. goes missing, Hellboy is sent to investigate, pulling him into the depths of the Wyrd…

The physical Collector´s Edition includes: a stunning 112-page artbook titled “The Art of Mike Mignola´s Hellboy Web of Wyrd”, showcasing Mignola´s treasured and unique artworks created for the videogame, and it comes packaged with the physical game in a collectible box.

Play the Comics:
Developed by Upstream Arcade, Hellboy Web of Wyrd utilizes an art style faithful to Mike Mignola’s original masterpieces. Like in the comics, the game sends Hellboy on a series of vastly different and wholly-unique adventures; and while each story stands on its own, they are all tied to the mysterious legacy of The Butterfly House.

Welcome to the Wyrd:
Built in 1962 by occultist Pasquale Deneveaux, The Butterfly House is more than a mere residence; it’s a gateway. Built upon occult ley-energies, its strange angles and non-Euclidean geometries were designed with a singular foul purpose in mind: to open doorways into a terrible and fascinating dimension called The Wyrd.

Roguelike Action Brawler:
Go toe-to-toe (or hoof-to-hoof) with a menagerie of nightmarish creatures and homunculi as you explore the realms within the Wyrd. Combat has been engineered to create challenging encounters that encourage you to learn patterns, dodge, parry, and - of course - punch your enemies into oblivion.

PEGI 3+

PEGI 12+: Graphic and realistic looking violence is allowed towards fantasy characters and can feature horror content such as a strong threat or graphic injury. Violence to human characters must appear unrealistic unless it consists of minor trivial injury. Sexual posturing as the type seen in music videos is allowed as a sexual innuendo. Some bad language is allowed but no more than mild swearing.  12 is the minimum rating for games which teach or encourage gambling, although the descriptor can also feature on higher rated games.

Any game that would normally be rated at 3 but contains some possibly frightening scenes or sounds may be considered suitable in this category.
