Beast

For many years, Arbrom was faithful to his mentor, sometimes playing the role of messenger and sometimes the executioner.

He did not question his own acts, only obeyed the orders even though they were grotesque and immoral. However, there was a day when something was left behind, a piece of his heart. The beast witnessed an event that not only broke his heart, but left him vowing vengeance on his master. His old village along with his old friends and family were decimated, precisely by the one that Arbrom served for so many years.

The reasons were unclear, but nothing else matters now... He is seeking his revenge! Cross all scenarios until you reach the interior of your former mentor's castle. Be careful of the onslaught of stones, bats, insects, snakes and mystical eyes along the way. To avoid being hit, you must attack some and deflect others. Beast is available from Dablio Games (Brazil) on cartridge, along with a full-color manual and professionally printed overlay in an old school VHS plastic clamshell case.
