The KISS Psycho Circus game is a first-person perspective shooter that aims to put the "A" back in action for the genre, and to challenge the concept of what an intense 3D shooter experience is. Based on the rich world created by Todd McFarlane in his best-selling KISS Psycho Circus comic books, the game is set in a demonic world of mystery and horror. The player must do battle with hordes of demonic critters, and should expect more enemies on-screen than has been seen in a long, long time. The demon-spawn are the creations of an unborn evil that by its very conception is corrupting the fabric of reality. The aim of the game then, is to avoid the birth of this Nightmare Child, thereby preventing the unraveling of our universe.

Gamers begin as mortals and progressively acquire the powers of The Elder, a supernatural being with the power and ability to destroy the Nightmare Child and save the universe from doom. The Elder, embodied by four alter egos, each based on the KISS characters (the Demon - Gene Simmons, the Starbearer - Paul Stanley, the Beast King - Peter Criss, and the Celestial - Ace Frehley), together prevent the unraveling the universe. By taking the role of The Elder the player will, as the game progresses, see himself go from being a mere mortal to becoming a creature with God-like powers.

Similarly, the levels the characters traverse reflect each element. The Celestial's (Ace Frehley) episode is the realm of Air, with altered laws of physics and a hint of sci-fi flavor. The Starbearerås (Paul Stanley) levels reflect his character as well as the Water element, putting the player in a moist, fog-laden aristocratic environment. The Demon (Gene Simmons) travels the post-apocalyptic Fire realm, where it rains fire and destruction. The Earth realm, the world of the Beast Creature (Peter Criss) is full of caves, canyons and forests, where civilized structures appear to be abandoned and overgrown.

Each KISS character represents a different type of game experience, with unique locations, realm bosses, challenges, weapons and powers. The KISS costumes (or "Elder Armor", as they're known in the game) come in five pieces, which must be assembled by the player. Each piece boosts a given characteristic and equips the Elder with special powers to fight against the growing menace of the Nightmare Child!

  • Up to 50 characters filling the screen at once ‚ the largest number of creatures ever seen at one time on a first-person shooter screen.
