Game Description
Save the kingdom in this game that flashes back to the time when 2D pixels ruled the realm. 3D Dot Game Heroes cashes in on classic game nostalgia and retro cool by creating a 3D world out of old-school 2D pixel-style graphics. Once upon a time, the Kingdom of Dotnia was a boxy 2D world, just like those seen in classic 8-bit games. To make the kingdom a better destination, they made everything 3D. Now, their quirky world is in danger. Create a hero and an upgradeable weapon built out of pixels, then set out on an adventure that's part throwback fun and part tribute to gaming's early years.
