A brisk, score-chasing arcade shooter with retro pixel graphics and an upbeat, mythological theme.

What players say

Players praise this Toaplan arcade port for its faithful presentation and Steam Deck support, but note persistent bugs where the music cuts out or fails to switch between stages. It is considered one of the easier Toaplan shmups, though some find it still challenging without autofire assist.
