Pandemonium! Europe

While playing with an ancient spellbook, Nikki, a disillusioned acrobat, and Fargus, the jester, inadvertently unleash a demon upon the kingdom. The task now falls upon them to undo their mistake, which can only be fixed by finding the Wishing Engine and obtaining a much sought-after wish. Such is the premise for Pandemonium!, a platform romp from Crystal Dynamics. Commonly referred to as 2.5D, the game plays out in much the same vein as titles like Klonoa, in that while the gameworld and its denizens are rendered in 3D, the player is restricted to a two-dimensional plane that veers into and out of the screen in a pre-determined fashion.
