Your task is to unravel the mysteries of the zodiac. Demons are out to get you and you must kill them to count the 12 signs of the zodiac.

You move between rooms (each screen being one room or corridor) using the joystick. If you can see any demons then you must shoot them and go on to collect the sign of the zodiac if there is one.

Every so often there will be a gate opening when you receive an extra life. To make the game harder the demons keep multiplying, taking away your extra lives.

The graphics are quite god although the background screens are very similar and repetitive. Obvious shortcuts have been made in the graphics, making the quality slightly less than it should be.

Sound is good and very suitable. The program makes up in sound for what it lacks in graphics.

I found a bug in the game which happened about four times. When moving out of some corridors, you appear in the wrong place on the screen and lose a life.
