The remastered version of a 1995 action platformer. Gargoyles Remastered has us playing as Goliath, a gargoyle on a quest to destroy a corrupted amulet, the Eye of Odin. The game features refreshed visuals, audio and new functionality.
Gargoyles Remastered is a remastered version of a 1995 action platformer, based on the animated series of the same name. It was co-developed by Empty Clip Studios and Disney.
The protagonist of Gargoyles Remastered is Goliath, a gargoyle. He must defeat the villainous Demona and take the Eye of Odin from her - a corrupted magical amulet that could doom the world in wrong hands.
Gargoyles Remastered is a side-scroller. The player must move to the right, traversing various locations, including the ancient Wyvern Castle, modern Manhattan skyscrapers and the New York subway. We'll jump on platforms, avoid obstacles, traps and face down enemies.
Goliath's primary weapons are his fists and claws; his wings, meanwhile let him attack from the air. Wings and claws come in handy while exploring too; the former let him glide and jump further, while the latter - climb walls and ceilings.
Though mechanically the game remains unchanged, the remastered version also includes a rewind feature, letting players undo their actions at any time.
Gargoyles Remastered features thoroughly refreshed visuals. The developers have created much more detailed sprites, locations and new animations. There are also new sound effects and a new version of the original soundtrack.
The player can switch between the original and remastered graphics at any time, as well as between three versions of the soundtrack.

Game Ratings for Gargoyles Remastered Video Game.
NintendoWorldReport: 3 / 10 by Jordan Rudek
Worse than any promises unfulfilled is that the game just isn't very good at all, and it's mired by bugs, lacks basic options and tutorials, and only spans five total stages. Gargoyles is a relic that should have remained set in 16-bit stone, sealed away never to return. I'm normally very supportive of the effort to bring back old and forgotten games, but even superfans of the TV series shouldn't be tortured by this unnecessary re-release.
PlayStation Universe: 6.5 / 10 by Garri Bagdasarov
Gargoyles Remastered is a good addition to the growing library of classic remasters. It's faithful to a fault to its original release. Though I praise the developer for keeping the game as true to the original as possible, that doesn't mean it couldn't have used some extra updates. The visual upgrade is tremendous in recreating the animated series visuals, and the rewind function is excellent. Still, that doesn't keep the combat and platforming from being incredibly frustrating at times.
Destructoid: 5 / 10 by Zoey Handley
Truly, this is one for the fans. It’s a remaster for people who have fond memories of renting it for the Genesis back in the day. Fans of the cartoon might also find some value in it, as much as it tends to be an unfaithful adaptation. For everyone else, there are a lot of other games you can play before you need to reach the depths of Gargoyles. It’s not terrible, it just isn’t good. But at least it hasn’t been left sleeping for one thousand years.
