Sentinel Returns

A sequel to Geoff Crammond’s original The Sentinel, the game features 651 levels, a multiplayer mode, and a soundtrack composed by John Carpenter and arranged by Gary McKill. The game presents a dramatically different visual tone from its predecessor, with dark and hallucinatory environments.

Language support spans English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish across the release. The John Carpenter soundtrack and the unusual visual aesthetic make Sentinel Returns a notable collector curiosity within the Psygnosis catalogue.
