Summary
Over the course of several generations, the once mighty empire known as The United Republics of The Red Star (U.R.R.S.) slaughtered millions of its own people by the order of a single man. This man was their leader, Imbohl; a mighty sorcerer whose insanity turned his people's Utopian dreams into a nightmarish scheme driven by the desire to forge his own immortality. Haunted by the ghosts of their nation's tragic past, the Heroes of the Red Star, at the battle of Kar Dathra's Gate, discover the true nature of their people's struggle, abandon their duties as soldiers of the Red Fleet, and embark upon a quest to liberate their people from Imbohl's dark legacy.

Hardly groundbreaking and extremely limited, but worth a look at for ease of play and price.

A decent, short-term hack'n'blast that's best with two players who like old-school games, but a far cry from today's big action titles.

If there was a complaint to be levelled at the game, apart from its somewhat repetitive gameplay, it would be the lack of checkpoints - and with such huge odds against you, it does become irritating to have to restart a level from teh beginning each time you die.
