<p><i><b>Nethergate</b></i> is a computer-based <a href="Fantasy_subgenres" class="mw-redirect" title="Fantasy subgenres">historical fantasy</a> <a href="Role-playing" title="Role-playing">role-playing</a> game published by <a href="Spiderweb_Software" title="Spiderweb Software">Spiderweb Software</a> for the <a href="Apple_Macintosh" class="mw-redirect" title="Apple Macintosh">Macintosh</a> and <a href="Microsoft_Windows" title="Microsoft Windows">Microsoft Windows</a> platforms. The game was released in <a href="1998_in_video_gaming" class="mw-redirect" title="1998 in video gaming">1998</a> by <a href="Jeff_Vogel" class="mw-redirect" title="Jeff Vogel">Jeff Vogel</a>, and was Spiderweb Software's first game to feature a 45° <a href="Isometric_projection" title="Isometric projection">isometric</a> viewing angle. <i>Nethergate</i> offers players the choice to play on either side of the story, as <a href="Celts" title="Celts">Celts</a> or <a href="Ancient_Rome" title="Ancient Rome">Romans</a>. The game's plot allows for several endings and many side quests, which accompany the main story. Spiderweb Software released a <a href="Video_game_remake" title="Video game remake">remake</a> called <i>Nethergate Resurrection</i> in May 2007.

</p>

<p>The player begins with a party of four characters, who are either "A small band of Roman Soldiers sent to the Shadowvale to complete a mysterious mission", or a "Band of Celtic warriors told by your chief to go to the village of Nethergate for mysterious reasons". Shadowvale is an isolated valley controlled by the <a href="Brigantes" title="Brigantes">Brigantes</a>, and the game's events take place during the time of <a href="Boudica" title="Boudica">Boudica</a>'s rebellion in AD 60/61. The linear missions of the Romans and the Celts complement each other to a certain extent. The Romans are first faced with retrieving a satchel with vital information for Shadow Valley Fort from a nearby mine infested with Goblins, while the Celts' first mission is to acquire a bronze token from a nearby pit in which Goblins have made their fortification. From there, both sides make their way to the house of the Three Crones, who are very similar to the <a href="Moirai" title="Moirai">Three Fates</a> of <a href="Greek_mythology" title="Greek mythology">Greek mythology</a>. The Crones aid the player if they have a Roman party and give tasks to accomplish, but imprison them if the player has a Celtic party.

</p><p>The next location is a ruined Faerie hall, in which the party acquires a contract between the Sidhe and the village of Nethergate, explaining that the party must retrieve three magical items: a Fomorian's Stone Skull, The Eye of Cathrac, and the Crown of Annwn. Once these items have been acquired, the party journeys to the Spire of Ages, where the Celts aid the Faerie leader in escaping this world, while the Romans attempt to interrupt him. In the "best" ending for both sides, Shadow Valley Fort is destroyed, the village of Nethergate is evacuated, and the enchanted weapons meant for the Celts are destroyed.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Gameplay">Gameplay</h2></div>

<p><i>Nethergate</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'s</span> gameplay uses an <a href="Isometric_view" class="mw-redirect" title="Isometric view">isometric view</a>, and is somewhat intermediate between that of <i><a href="Blades_of_Exile" class="mw-redirect" title="Blades of Exile">Blades of Exile</a></i> and <i><a href="Avernum" title="Avernum">Avernum</a></i>, as it combines the pseudo-3D of <i>Avernum</i> with a battle and conversation system resembling <i>Blades of Exile</i>. Romans and Celts have unique traits for their statistics. Romans have better armour and weapons than Celts, but Celts have better magic, potion-making, and general skills for the wilderness.

</p><p><i>Nethergate</i> is unique among Spiderweb Software games in being the only game to use a spell system consisting of Spell Circles, instead of the "Mage" and "Priest" spell system featured in the <i>Blades of Exile</i> and <i>Avernum</i> series. Certain Circles have skill restrictions on them based on the character's level of Druidism, skill in other circles, and Faction. These are:

</p>

<ul><li>Health Circle – available to Celts and Romans; can only be as high as Druidism skill; contains spells used for healing and curing characters</li>

<li>War Circle – available to Celts and Romans; can only be as high as Druidism skill; contains spells used for shielding and boosting the player's characters, as well as causing harm to enemies</li>

<li>Beast Circle – available to Celts at the start of the game, but Romans must earn it by completing a quest; may only be as high as War Circle skill for Celts, with a fixed value for Romans; contains spells for summoning creatures</li>

<li>Craft Circle – available to Celts at the start of the game, but Romans must earn it by completing a quest; may only be as high as the War Circle skill for Celts, with a fixed value for Romans; contains spells for aiding in travel around the game</li>

<li>Spirit Circle – available to Celts at the start of the game, but Romans must find it; may only be as high as the lower of Craft or Beast Circle as Celts, with a fixed value for Romans; contains spells for damaging magical creatures and blocks</li>

<li>Nether Circle – a grouping of five spells which may only be used by the Celts; also the most powerful and hard-to-find spells.</li></ul>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Reception">Reception</h2></div>

<p><i>Nethergate</i> was reviewed in 2000 in <i><a href="Dragon_(magazine)" title="Dragon (magazine)">Dragon</a></i> #273 in the "Silicon Sorcery" column. The review said that while <i>Nethergate</i> lacks the "bells and whistles" of bigger releases, it offers both "a fascinating little romp through a mythic era of history" rarely explored in role-playing games, and "terrific price-to-performance ratio", with a single playthrough lasting over 50 hours. For <i>Dragon</i>, the game's biggest weakness is mission design that too often revolves around recovering <a href="MacGuffin" title="MacGuffin">MacGuffins</a>, and its greatest strength is the Celtic influence apparent in the <a href="Seelie_Court" class="mw-redirect" title="Seelie Court">Seelie Court</a>, the <a href="Wicker_man" title="Wicker man">Wicker Man</a>, and the <a href="Wild_Hunt" title="Wild Hunt">Wild Hunt</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
