An action RPG that has some traces of Castlevania and Zelda. While the combat is fine, the game is very linear, and just as repetitive with many of the dungeons just being color swaps and the only bosses in the game being a series of bad Xenomorph knockoffs and the world's least threatening dragons. It got the basics right, but didn't do anything particularly great with the rest.

Zelda II but you stab upward not downward?

Game Review - originally written by (wraith)

This seems like a kinda spiffy side-scrolling adventure romp in the vein of Zelda 2, Faxanadu, or Battle of Olympus. Most of the game revolves around jumping and stabbing and exploring. Of course, you run into people along the way who try to pawn their advice and goods off on you. And I think you’re looking for some treasure or something. It’d be great if this game had a backstory!
(editor's note: this game came so close to being released in America that it had finalized Vidpro boxart)
