BOH demo (Windows)
Jan 28, 2010 Demo 4 commentsFeature-packed demo of BOH, including 7 tutorial missions and 2 real missions.
BOH is a unique retro-flavoured puzzle-riddled maze game spiced up with thrilling action.
You move in claustrophobic, mysterious, dangerous battlefields searching for the Evil Masters, who throw countless enemies at you until you discover and face them in the final battle. Although your quests are made slightly less hard by the power-ups scattered all around, carrying out the missions demands lots of concentration and quick reflexes.
With BOH the fun never ends: new missions and themes can be added anytime and you can even create your own!
BOH has been created with lots of passion and care to offer, with its oldschool style, a fascinatingly different gaming experience.
Features:
- immersive & thrilling gameplay
- 44 missions + 11 secret missions to unlock
- missions divided in 5 levels of difficulty
- multi-phase missions
- multi-floor battlefields of any size/shape
- mind-blowing puzzles and deadly traps
- many and varied power-ups
- several different kinds of enemies
- hand-pixelled 2D graphics
- real-time field of vision and lighting
- atmospheric audio and rich soundtrack
- 7 themes
- online world standings
- possibility of creating missions and themes
- Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Spanish and Swedish translations
BOH runs natively on AmigaOS, AROS, Linux, MacOS and Windows. It comes as a shrink-wrapped DVD box containing a pressed CD-ROM and a 24-page color printed English manual, or as a downloadable ISO image.

Are there any fansites out there? Seeing that BOH was pretty much designed with user made levels and themes in mind, i don't understand why there isn't much of a community out there. I would love to download some usermade stuff...
(Don't get me wrong, BOH comes with a lot of content- but it would be nice to see what the fanbase can do with the tools you provide.)
You're perfectly right: I designed BOH with user-made content in mind. Unfortunately, few have showed interest in creating content. I think the most impressive input I got was from an Amiga user who created an online level editor (see Amiga.org), although he didn't have the possibility of finishing/updating it.
As for your initial question: as far as I know, there are no fansites - BOH is too much out of this world and hype-less ;)
Never heard of this game, there are only one or two videos of it on youtube and even on greater gamingforums like "neogaf", nobody talks about BOH. How come?
I found BOH to be surprisingly fun! Hope you can earn some money on it saimo.
Hey, Fennrick, thanks for the nice wish!
I'm glad you discovered BOH and that you're enjoying it - and with the upcoming update you'll enjoying it even more (it was planned to be released much earlier, but real life got into the way...)!
If you deem BOH worth to be talked about, feel free to mention it here, on Facebook (BTW: Facebook.com), Twitter, gaming forums, among real friends, wherever you please ;)
There'll be one more update ;)
Game looks/plays great (for the intended style :D) but really needs a strafe key (got annoyed having to rotate all the time).
Thanks for the compliments :)
As for strafing, it's missing for a design choice - please refer to the FAQ on the website (http://www.bohthegame.com/faq.html) for a comprehensive explanation.
I've got a product key of this game (bought trought the website) Can I redeem it here?
Sorry, it isn't possible (see my private message for the details).
Thank you for the prompt assistance!
