About the game
In Disney Gargoyles: Awakening, which is named after the TV show, players each represent one of six Gargoyles characters — Goliath, Brooklyn, Lexington, Broadway, Hudson, or NYPD detective Elisa Maza — fight against baddies Xanatos and Demona in one of four scenarios on a three-dimensional cityscape board showing Manhattan as it was depicted in the cartoon. Three of the scenarios are co-operative, while the final one is not: "Reawakening" — Face off against Xanatos and Demona to save Coldstone's mind. "Temptation and Magic" — Defeat Demona, who has stolen the Grimorum Arcanorum to enslave innocents. "Information Warfare" — Collect three stolen data disks on behalf of Xanatos. "Battle with the Steel Clan" — One player takes control of Xanatos and the Steel Clan, aiming to defeat a hero or destroy the police tower, while the other players try to stop them as the Gargoyles.
