About
Step into the final chapter of the Trasmoz saga, a story that began with critically acclaimed homebrew hits on ZX Spectrum and Amstrad CPC. Now, in this arcade-style adventure, you will experience the definitive version of the Trasmoz series as it would have been imagined in the golden age of arcades.
In Trasmoz Legends, every pixel and sound takes you back to the authentic 8-bit era with a meticulously crafted palette of just 16 colors. Our low-res sprites and various restrictions create a truly faithful retro aesthetic, honoring the 1984 arcade style.
But it’s not just a visual treat. We’ve used the legendary Yamaha YM2203 sound chip to recreate the unmistakable chiptune soundtrack of that era. This iconic sound chip, popular in classic arcade cabinets, produces a distinctive blend of FM synthesis and PSG (Programmable Sound Generator) audio, which provides a depth of sound that was rare in home consoles.
The soundtrack taps into the nostalgia of FM-driven basslines, synths, and crisp retro melodies, wrapping you in a fully immersive arcade experience.
Each track has been lovingly composed to capture the essence of arcade music, providing not only background music but an integral part of the emotional arc of each level.
The sound of Trasmoz Legends will keep you hooked, reinforcing the pace and challenge of the game.
Trasmoz Legends offers a variety of game modes, catering to all types of players, whether you're a casual gamer looking for fun or a retro gamer seeking a challenge:
Family Mode – This mode is perfect for those looking for a more relaxed experience, especially when playing with younger players. It offers infinite credits and a forgiving difficulty curve, making it easier to enjoy the game without the intense challenge that classic arcade titles are known for. It’s a great way for parents to introduce their kids to retro gaming and enjoy the adventure together.
Classic Mode – For seasoned retro gamers and those looking for an authentic arcade experience, Classic Mode ramps up the difficulty, limiting your credits and making every life count. This mode is designed to replicate the challenge and excitement of 1980s arcade games, pushing your skills to the limit.
Speedrun Mode – If you thrive on beating the clock, Speedrun Mode is made for you. It tracks your total playtime and ranks your performance, allowing you to compete for the fastest clear time. Speedrunners can test their precision and skill, replaying levels to shave off precious seconds and climb the leaderboard.
Endless Mode – For players seeking a truly endless challenge, Endless Mode offers an infinite sequence of pre-designed levels presented in a pseudo-random order, each becoming progressively harder. See how long you can survive and compete for the highest score. This mode ensures unique playthroughs, delivering limitless replayability and non-stop action.
Trasmoz Legends offers more than just platforming. With emergent gameplay systems, every session introduces new ways to challenge your skills. Between candle lighting strategies, enemies and environmental traps, the game is packed with high-replayability mechanics that keep even the most experienced players on their toes, solo or co-op.
In Trasmoz Legends, the final boss is a relentless force that haunts your every move. Just like the classic arcade villains of the past, he's constantly pursuing you throughout every level, throwing pumpkins, summoning ghosts, activating traps, and sending waves of enemies to stop you in your tracks. Only by surviving his relentless onslaught through every level will you earn the chance to face him in an epic final showdown. This is no ordinary boss—his presence adds tension and excitement to every stage, keeping you on edge from start to finish.
Trasmoz Legends brings the best of retro gameplay into the modern world with the following key features:
Steam Remote Play Together: Join forces with a friend in co-op mode, no matter where they are in the world!
Online Leaderboards: Compete with players worldwide and see if you can claim the top spot in each game mode.
Achievements: Unlock special rewards and bragging rights as you conquer the game’s hardest challenges.
We’d love for you to add Trasmoz Legends to your wishlist and share it with fellow retro gaming enthusiasts!

Following "[b]The Curse of Trasmoz[/b]" brought out on ZX Spectrum in 2019, and "[b]The Revenge of Trasmoz[/b]" brought out on Amstrad in 2022, we finish the trilogy with [b] Trasmoz Legends. [/b] The first two games in the series can be downloaded and played as executables and played without emulators. Hopefully, they will become available on Steam too but for now that's the way the trilogy is presented. I have fond memories of the arcades when I was a kid and the fondest memory I have is the noise of the cabinets luring me to them. [b] Volcano Bytes [/b] have captured this magic by using the same sound chip that the early 80's cabinets used, namely the Yamaha YM2203, and it sounds gorgeous. There's something about chiptunes that just make me smile. Their faithful homage does not end there and they have used authentic 8 bit graphics with a 16 color pallette to make it look as much like the classic arcade cabinets as they could. It looks and sounds like a game that has come from that era and I cannot fault their presentation in this area. Is this game just for nostalgic old men though? I don't think so. It actually is quite difficult to beat and should present a challenge to modern gamers too. There are four modes to try out. A more simpler family mode with unlimited credits and unlimited continues; a Classic mode which has five credits; A speed run which is unlocked only after you complete the Classic Mode; and an Endless Mode which is also unlocked after the Classic Mode is beaten. Currently, I am having difficulty beating the classic mode with its 16 levels and boss fight with the five credits I have, therefore I have not had a chance to play the Speed Run and Endless Modes. Game play consists of killing enemies to release their soul in a form of an orb which shoots out of the enemy and bounces around nearby. The orb has to be collected within a short time frame or else the enemy re-spawns. Once you have collected the orb you can use it to light one of the torches on the level and once all of the torches are lit, the level is completed. You can carry as many as these orbs as you like and in true arcade fashion there are chain multipliers for lighting the torches in quick succession so it can be advantageous to try and kill the enemies and haul the orbs. Once a torch is lit, all existing enemies on the screen turn into gold coins for you to collect if you so wish. Standing in your way is a skeleton like boss who hovers around the screen and releases pumpkins which roll down the levels in a Donkey Kong type of way, and a ghost that follows you around and gets in your way constantly. Your character has a sword which can kill the pumpkins and freeze the ghost in its tracks. The enemies consist of brain dead Zombies who frequent the earlier levels and are very docile and predictable, and skeleton enemies who are much more alert and will throw bones at you which you can jump over or destroy with your sword. You have three lives for each coin you put in the machine, and hitting an enemy or being hit by a projectile causes a loss of life unless you can find a chest and put on some armor which gives you protection, in a little nod to Ghosts n Goblins. Levels contain ladders and these can be climbed up and down in one movement so there is no hiding on them or waiting because once you press up or down you will go straight to the top or bottom. There is always a single screen which usually wraps around so you can exit one side and enter the opposite side, including dropping through holes at the bottom and appearing at the top. Other pitfalls included are spikes which appear and disappear, floating lifts, bridges that disappear when touched and flowing lava. The game can be incredibly frantic and there can be so many things you have to be wary of when trying to kill enemies and avoid all of the traps. When jumping from platform to platform, these jumps have to be spot on in later levels or else you won't make it, and falling often means hitting something you don't want to hit. Chasing the orb as it bounces out of the enemy is difficult too because it often falls to the bottom of the screen meaning by the time you go after it, avoiding all other enemies and traps, the orb has returned and the enemy comes back to life. You have to be quick and determined or have another attempt if it looks too risky. There are a couple of things I got frustrated over whilst playing. The character when attacking lunges forward, and this often caused my demise, either by travelling into an enemy or falling off a ledge. I think the lunge is too much in my opinion and needs to be reduced slightly. The other thing is when you lose your lives, and you continue with another coin, your current score is not registered and the only way to save it on the leader boards is to not continue the game. I know this is how arcade games worked but I hadn't realised how annoying it was until now. You are not able to input your name anyway (it uses your Steam ID) so I don't see why your score can't be placed on the leader board and you are still allowed to continue that run with another coin. I just think that would be nice. The game can actually be played in two player local co-op but I did not get the chance to try this out. [h1]🍳Conclusion🍳[/h1] [quote][h2][b] Trasmoz Legends [/b] is a faithful and heart felt homage to the arcade cabinet games of the early eighties with its retro styled visuals and wonderful chip tune soundtrack. The Endless Mode and the Speed Run mode are unlocked after finishing The Classic Mode which is actually quite difficult to beat using the five credits you are allowed, so it may be that you never get to try these modes which is a shame. The game is certainly quite frantic with lots of things to think about whilst trying to navigate the ladders, jumps, and bridges on the level. If you enjoy retro styled arcade games and want a bit of a challenge then definitely check this one out. [/h2][/quote] [quote]Thank you for reading my review.

"Trasmoz Legends" est la suite de "[b]The Curse of Trasmoz[/b]" et "[b]Return of Trasmoz[/b]", deux jeux modernes (2018 et 2022) sortis sur de vieux ordinateurs (le ZX Spectrum et l'Amstrad CPC): c'étaient de bons jeux rendant parfaitement hommage à ces machines, mais ils reproduisaient la rigidité de leur contexte, les rendant sans doute difficiles à apprécier pour le grand public. "Trasmoz Legends" s'émancipe de l'histoire des micro-ordinateurs européens pour adopter le format plus populaire d'une borne d'arcade de 1984: comme ses prédécesseurs, sur la forme, l'hommage est parfait, le jeu ressemble exactement à un grand classique de l'époque avec de nombreux détails techniques très jolis et authentiques (pour resituer: 1984 était l'année de "[b]Bomb Jack[/b]"), mais ici le fond du jeu est modernisé, faisant de lui un des meilleurs du genre. Le principe de la série des jeux Trasmoz est celui d'un jeu de plateformes à tableaux: on y joue un chevalier devant terrasser des revenants pour récupérer les flammes qu'ils avaient volées, pour ensuite purifier le décor en y rallumant des torches avec les flammes collectées. Ici, cette tâche est compliquée par Mutamin, le magicien à l'origine de l'invasion d'outre-tombe, qui se balade à l'écran et y multiplie les attaques. Le jeu comporte douze niveaux structurés en trois sections de quatre niveaux (un cimetière abandonné, des catacombes secrètes, et un temple caché), avec deux intermèdes bonus et un combat final contre Mutamin, après quoi le jeu s'arrête (sauf dans le mode "Infini"): si on veut réaliser le meilleur score possible et trôner en haut des classements en ligne, il faudra donc soigneusement maximiser son score dans chaque tableau. Il y a quatre modes de jeu, dont deux sont disponibles au lancement: un mode "[b]Famille[/b]" assez facile, un mode "[b]Classique[/b]" plus difficile (il y a plus de torches à rallumer, Mutamin dispose de tous ses types d'attaques, les [i]continues[/i] sont limités), un mode "[b]Speedrun[/b]" où il faut gagner le plus vite possible, et un mode "[b]Infini[/b]". Tous les modes disposent d'un classement en ligne, et sont jouables à deux joueurs à l'exception du mode "Speedrun". Grâce à leur structure avec un boss de fin et une conclusion, les parties ont une durée idéale pour le genre, une nette amélioration par rapport à la structure "marathon" chronophage des bornes d'arcades, et l'action est bien plus souple et nerveuse que celle des authentiques jeux de 1984: les échelles sont montées et descendues facilement en un éclair, attaquer avec son épée fait aussi avancer le héros et sert donc de "dash" très pratique pour le platforming, et l'aire de jeu est cyclique horizontalement et verticalement - quitter l'écran par la gauche nous fait réapparaître à droite, et tomber en bas de l'écran nous fait atterrir en haut, ça dynamise énormément l'action. Le gameplay trouve un parfait équilibre entre une action simple, intuitive et lisible, et plein de petites subtilités qui amélioreront notre score: principalement, en collectant plusieurs flammes sans rallumer une seule torche (ça implique d'éviter de passer devant une torche puisqu'elles sont rallumées automatiquement), on crée un combo démultipliant notre score - c'est délicat mais très lucratif si on étend le combo à toutes les torches du niveau. Également, si notre chevalier prend un coup, il perdra son armure exactement comme Arthur dans "[b]Ghosts'n Goblins[/b]", mais on peut la récupérer en collectant un coffre qui apparaît par intermittence dans chaque niveau - si on ramasse ce coffre en portant encore son armure, on obtiendra un bonus de score. De plus, dès que l'on rallume une torche, Mutamin encaisse un coup et fait tomber des pièces qui rapportent du score, et en le frappant alors qu'il est encore étourdi, il laissera tomber encore plus de pièces. Tous ces éléments peuvent faire la différence dans les classements en ligne, mais ils nous font chacun courir un risque supplémentaire, à nous de trancher! Contrairement à la plupart des jeux du genre où les modes alternatifs sont plutôt bricolés et bancals, chacun des quatre modes de "Trasmoz Legends" exploite tout particulièrement un aspect spécifique du gameplay: le scoring soigneux dans le mode "Famille" sans que l'on ait trop à se préoccuper de la vitesse ou de la survie, la vitesse pure dans le mode "Speedrun", la survie dans le mode "Infini", et un compromis des trois dans le mode "Classique", procurant ainsi des sensations nettement distinctes et renouvelant l'expérience. Tout en étant très accessible, "Trasmoz Legends" est très addictif grâce à sa variété et à sa richesse qui nous donnent envie de toujours mieux faire, la nervosité de ses parties est très stimulante, et il se hisse à mon avis dans le panthéon du genre, à côté des tout meilleurs jeux récents ayant revigoré l'arcade, comme "[b]Donut Dodo[/b]" par exemple.

very good game definitely worth the price
Me encanta su estética Ghost & Goblins con una mecánica Bubble Bobble super fluida. Los gráficos, como todos los detalles están muy cuidados. La historia que cite a un pueblo desconocido de España le da un toque especial. Recomendado. 10/10.
I`ll save you a boring book report and just say... “A love letter to the 8-bit classics with Pixel Art Graphics & Perfect Platforming, chip tunes, un-lockable modes and leader-boards, Retro Perfection for 1 or 2 Players!” Highly recommended and GamerPauly Says...

Trasmoz legends is a great modern arcade game. It feels very satisfying to play and has multiple game modes to tailor to different people. Family mode allows everyone to enjoy the game with unlimited lives and easier levels. Then you have classic mode which is your typical arcade type difficulty. And finally there's speedrun/endless modes to challenge yourself with either trying to complete the levels as fast as possible or with the highest score possible. Controls feel good, thou getting used to ladders being a single button press to go up/down and when attacking you lunge forward takes a bit getting used to. Once you do everything just feels good. Overall the game is a great play for the price and you can get tons of hours into if you want to push leaderboards. I got all achievements in about 3 hours but I still want to play more. Game also has 2p mode but I did not get a chance to try that yet.
Por fin, ya era hora, tenemos aquí el final de la trilogía Trasmoz de Volcano Bytes. ¿Cómo, que eres un auténtico fan de los juegos indie y no conocías esta gran serie de juegos? Es bastante normal, ya que su primera entrega The Curse of Trasmoz salió para Spectrum y su aclamada continuación Revenge of Trasmoz aterrizó en Amstrad CPC. Con estas credenciales entenderéis que la serie es carne de retrojugones más que de indies. Aún así este fin de historia que aterriza en Steam, Xbox, Nintendo Switch y PlayStation bajo el nombre de Trasmoz Legends hará las delicias de todo jugador amante del píxel, el chiptune y la jugabilidad añeja. Esto quiere decir que podéis jugar a esta tercera entrega sin haber disfrutado los anteriores juegos y no os vais a perder dentro de su lore. Aún así no me seáis tacaños y mirad el catálogo de joyas que tiene este pequeño estudio español y haceos el favor de adquirir alguna. Los precios van de los 2 a los 10 euros y son todos jugables en un PC moderno. Vamos primo, que me los quitan de las manos. A lo que vamos. Trasmoz Legends llega este 11 de septiembre de 2025 de mano de los incombustibles JanduSoft, que ya es bastante signo de calidad y motivo de que al menos echéis un ojo a este pequeño juego arcade. Y digo arcade porque estamos ante un claro homenaje a los juegos de plataformas monopantalla de los años ochenta y noventa. Hablo de Bubble Bobble, Snow Bros., Tumble Pop y demás títulos que nos invitaban a ir de nivel en nivel limpiando todos los monstruos que encontremos en pantalla para poder continuar. En este caso debemos escoger entre dos caballeros medievales, que se quedan en ropa interior al primer toque haciendo que salten lágrimas de los más nostálgicos, debiendo enfrentarnos a un esqueleto nigromante que flota por la pantalla. A este puñetero volador no podemos hacerle daño, teniendo que ignorarle hasta el último nivel y obligándonos a centrarnos en los monstruitos a los que revive. Una vez matemos a sus masillas aparecerá una llama mágica que tendremos que recoger y llevar hasta unas velas que se encuentran repartidas por el nivel. Si no lo hacemos a tiempo el monstruito revivirá obligándonos a tener que machacarlo nuevamente. Parece fácil pero no lo es. Saltos, escaleras y trampas mortales se interpondrán en el camino de los héroes. Toca sudar. Su carta de presentación son la imagen y sonido propios de los ocho bits, aunque con un control que responde rápidamente a cada pulsación de botón y una dificultad no tan tragamonedas como en los clásicos de la época. Incluso cuenta con un modo de créditos infinitos que permite que incluso una persona metafóricamente manca y zurda de ambas manos (como yo) consiga terminar la aventura a base de continuar. Por supuesto que también podemos elegir un modo arcade clásico con límite de continues, el cual hará que debamos afinar más los sentidos. Si a esto le sumamos un divertidísimo modo para dos jugadores lo que obtenemos es un clásico atemporal que podremos jugar cualquier tarde sin que nos aburramos de él en ningún momento. En definitiva Trasmoz Legends hará las delicias de todo jugador nostálgico tanto de los salones recreativos como de las máquinas caseras de 8 bits. Si tuviste un Spectrum, CPC, MSX, Master System, NES o si simplemente le robabas a tu madre monedas de 25 pesetas para dilapidarlas en el bar de la esquina: este es tu juego. Si te gustan los desafíos retro con mecánicas simples pero adictivas, este juego podría ser una joya escondida. Análisis realizado gracias al código de prensa enviado por la buena gente de Jandu Soft, a los que siempre tengo en mis oraciones.
Trasmoz Legends is pretty fun! Of course i used family mode for the infinite lives and thats a life saver BUT i found it to be fun! 9/10
Very addictive, you discover new layers as you play it, i like to play it with headphones, loud volume makes the game more exciting, love it, great for kids.
