The Netherworld is a fictional autonomous neighborhood of the city of Chicago in the DC Comics universe.

 Netherworld download @ Game Downloads
One of the best action/puzzle hybrids ever made for the Amiga, Hewson's Netherworld translates onto the PC screen quite well, with minor losses (the wonderful Amiga music is gone, for instance) but with all the addictive gameplay intact.
Sheer adrenaline rush and addictive gameplay of Netherworld are more than enough to make up for the lackluster graphics, which is not as sharp as it could be.
Netherworld wasn't one of Hewson's biggest hits but is quite an interesting game.

 The Netherworld
The Netherworlds are the homes of all the dark creations or rather mis-creations of the Shadow, from the fearsome and mindless Netherbeasts to the terrifying abominations known as the Chasm Demons.
Many parts of the Netherworlds are said to consist of caverns located between the two sides of the complete Caelereth world, however, it is also told that there exists a barren surface on the other side, where the creatures of darkness dwell as if they were on the upper side.
While no official coat of arms is known to exist for the Netherworld and its creatures, some of the survivors of the final battle of Osthemangar claim that the unholy guard of the Portal bore dark red armor with the fl bolt of Coór emblazoned on it.

 Minor Netherworld Deities of Ancient Egypt   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
There were different versions and accounts of the netherworld gates in various funerary texts, where over 1,000 deities are depicted, but in each case the barriers themselves were guarded by minor gods who would only allow those who knew their secret names, and thus having power over them, to pass.
In the Valley of the Kings, twelve pylons or gates were commonly a part of the theme of funerary text, such as the Book of Gates, inscribed upon the walls of royal tombs of the New Kingdom.
Caverns and gates were both closely associated with specific hours of the night in the netherworld, and each hour of the night was represented by a goddess who was protective or who gave assistance to the deceased.

 An Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld From A Shrine of Tutankhamun   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Engraved on the second gilded shrine of Tutankhamun, discovered in his tomb by Howard Carter, was two parts of a book that is completely unique, though they do seem to have similarities to two scenes from the Amduat which were depicted on the child king's third shrine.
In fact, these texts are designated as an "amduat", which here for the very first time the term is used to describe a netherworld text in general rather than the specific text to which it is normally applied.
Those in the upper register are in the "caverns of the Duat (?)" and reside in darkness, while those of the lower register are in the Place of Annihilation, though it seems that their ba-souls are able to accompany the sun god.

 House of Hades
The world of the dead or the netherworld was commonly viewed, by the ancient religions, to be a subterranean realm, ruled by a god or goddess, or both.
For the Greeks and Romans, death was inevitable and all men were allotted to their fates, and all were given places in the Netherworld.
Heracles, who was performing one of his famous labours, to fetch Cerberus, Hades' hound, he had managed to free Theseus from the Chair of Forgetfulness.

 Netherworld
But old Purgatory (or 'Netherworld' as the inhabitants know it) is a weird old place, populated by lost souls and theatre actors.
Netherworld's graphic are a bit of a let down.
They are simply 'okay' and adequately suit the plot of the game (with demons, devils and other 'after-life' images among them) but they are a little bland and superficial.

Chapter 1 (8 p.) is a discussion of the Netherworld's geography, physics, and socio-politics.
Unfortunately, what is described here is not integrated well with (an partially contradicts) the description of the Netherworld in the main rulebook where the Netherworld is described as an inhabited Center with a radius of 400 kilometers surrounded by kilometers of twisting passageways.
The geography section also doesn't do a very good job of describing what the Netherworld looks like, what it is like to walk its twisting corridors, what the ceiling and light is like, etc. All the verisimilitude that is essential for describing a setting to players.

 Netherworld Haunted House in Atlanta, GA - AOL City Guide
The rumor around area crypts has it that the creative minds behind Netherworld could be in direct contact with those of the Underworld.
As crazy as that may sound, it might prove the only reasonable explanation as to how the famed haunted house is able to keep scaring the jeepers creepers out of Atlanta thrill-seekers every year.
One of the little devils' secrets is that, unlike a lot of local haunts, Netherworld consistently changes themes.

 Prog4You.com - Progressive Rock Review - Netherworld
The Netherworld album that we have today is a compilation of two earlier works by the band.
It was some time later that it occurred to me that these tunes must have come out some years earlier than the IQ work that I am familiar with.
As to the Chicken or the Egg question, it is not really important which came first (unless you're a chicken of coarse) as long as the results are worth listening to.

 Shadowfist Netherworld Expansion Information
Netherworld was Daedalus Entertainment's first expansion set for Shadowfist.
Netherworld really shook up the Shadowfist playing field, which actually wasn't that hard to do at the time — many groups had degenerated into cheese fests (event-heavy Ascended and Architect decks dominating) or waxy character buildup prior to one massive attack for the win.
Netherworld changed that primarily by introducing alternate power generation cards, an antidote for the "turning" sites (Kinoshita House, etc.), plus a few ultra-good hitters that were immune to many of the anti-Character cards.

 RPGamer > Disgaea Opens the Gates to the Netherworld
To start the process off, this week sees the release of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, which is the highly quirky story of the Prince of the Netherworld's quest to regain his throne.
Also, in a similar manner to the organized chaos that was Rhapsody, Disgaea follows the tale of the Netherworld's Prince, who has awoken after a rather long, two year nap to discover that his father died while he slept.
However, mixed in with what could be a rather dark story on the surface is a strong mix of comedy including an Angel Assassin in training, a demonic penguin, and the Netherworld's version of a Senate, the Dark Assembly.

 Detailed Reviews [Netherworld - 1981/2003 - "Netherworld"] - ProgressoR
This CD reissue of Netherworld's only album, "In the Following Half-light", includes all the songs from the original LP, and also three extra instrumental pieces, all of which were recorded the same year (1981).
What's especially interesting is that the music of Netherworld is for the most part distinctly original, and the arrangements that I imply don't feature Genesis's influences (these are notable only once here).
Two of the three instrumental compositions that are presented on "Netherworld": The Approaching Storm and Among the Clouds (8 & 10) are stylistically in the vein of the songs that I was just talking about and represent a highly diverse and complex Symphonic Art-Rock with elements of Prog-Metal (too).

Gradually their live-act became more spectacular with lasers, liquid lights, projections and a singer with a hooded cape and LED eyes.
In 1984 NETHERWORLD disbanned but in 1992 they appeared with one song on the double-compilation LP "Past-Present-Future" (including KALABAN and some other USA progrock bands), a release from the USA progrock label Syn-Phonic.
NETHERWORLD’s one and only album "In The Following Half-Light" contains seven compositions with varied instrumentation, exciting solos and elaborate arrangements (especially "Sargasso" with its frequently shifting moods, in my opinion their absolute highlight).
