Red Gate

Red Gate tells the story of a newly recruited sentry whose country faces an invading army searching for the power said to lie beyond an ancient gate. To save his people, you pass through the gate, gain power and fight the enemy, while that power comes at a price. You travel between the world beyond the gate and the world where the sentry exists.

The world where he is

Here, you use powers and items gained beyond the gate, along with upgrades, to fight enemy armies and help people in need. Each person you save adds a soul to a vessel, and there are eight vessels in total.

Beyond the gate

You seek soul points from special inhabitants and convert them into power. Robots watch the area and will eliminate you if they discover you. You can ask inhabitants and animals about the world.

Soul points remain unchanged, while meat points convert into money. You can fill up to eight containers. Spend soul points on power-ups and use meat points as coins to purchase items; how to allocate them is up to you.

Between the worlds

Use points earned beyond the gate to upgrade and purchase items in the place between the two worlds. It is also the game's only save point, and you may return there many times.
