The popular classic is back, in 3D! This side-scrolling, action-packed platformer will have you slicing and dicing your way past fiendish monsters in order to save Athena. Your only hope for survival... is to shape-shift into a fantastic beast yourself! It's time to rise from your grave!
This is a faithful port of the Genesis version, with the addition of a new "Random Form" mode and a two-player mode using local play. (Both players must have a Nintendo 3DS and a copy of the game)
Basic Controls
You are a shape-shifting centurion, revived from the grave to defeat evil. Punch, kick, and jump your way through the enemy. Defeat the two-headed white wolf to obtain a Spirit Ball and unlock the ability to shape-shift.
You will need to shape-shift three times before reaching your ultimate mode: Beast Form! This final state will be different depending on what stage you are on.
New Features
Players can save at any time and load their progress later on.
Players can also turn Random Beast mode ON, which randomizes the final shape-shift form, rather than it being dependent upon the current stage.
