Gorgon Shield

Gorgon Shield

Gather your party of expendable heroes. Climb a vast tower atop a shiny shield. Who will fight? Who will heal? Who will laze around and take all the treasure? The choices will be yours alone, but only those who work together will be powerful enough to face Medusa at the top of the GORGON SHIELD.

“A fun game to play like try one or two runs a day. A run lasted me about 15 minutes and the game has arcade like mechanics and each run is different. It's its own thing and I like that and should be very popular.”
