About this game
A great tengu sends its mask across the ocean to America, where Dark Seed has transformed the population and taken control of military forces. The mask faces those forces and newly created monsters in a horizontal scrolling shooter. The unusual rescue premise makes widespread destruction part of the mission. The protagonist here is the original Famicom tengu mask; the game’s central activity is moving through the scrolling attacks and shooting back at the forces blocking its intervention.
