About Journey Through Hell
He was sent there to suffer forever, and here he sets off to explore the place instead.
Each region starts at its entrance and ends at a set of large arches or doors. Reach them and you move on to the next region. There is no health to lose, so any direct hit sends him back a stretch of the path.

The route is laid out in front of you, and your job is to follow it to the end. Some parts are enclosed, but others are open at the sides with fire and lava below, and those open stretches are where this adventure game gets risky.
The traps include swinging balls that can knock him off a platform and straight into the lava. In this survival platformer, a missed jump and a badly timed trap end the same way.
Hell here is the classic version, made of stone and fire and rearranged into paths you can walk through. The setup sounds like an rpg premise about a damned soul exploring the underworld, but what you actually do is precise platforming.
Quick summary
- You start each region at its entrance.
- You follow the path past open drops, fire and swinging traps.

Tips & tricks
- Slow down around pits and narrow paths, because moving fast leads to more mistakes there.
- Save Shift for short bursts of speed to get past certain hazards.
- Watch a swinging ball for a moment before you cross its path.
- Take extra care on the open stretches, since that is where a fall into the fire can happen.
