Description

In the beginning of 21th century a terrible disaster, that was called "demoncoming crisis", devastated the continent of Asia. The city Hong Kong suffered most from the mysterious demonic attack. Terrible diseases made the once prosperous city to a ruin. But once people came back to see what happened to the isolated city, they saw it was ruled by a new order - a corporation called SIVA. The new order proclaimed New Hong Kong to an independent state. PR China and United Kingdom signed an agreement in which they both disposed their rights over the city.

You play the role of Tianren, a "diver" (demon-hunter) who lives in Hong Kong. His place of birth and the identity of his parents are unknown. Together with a girl named Meihong he was brought up in the house of a wise Master. Traveling through the huge city, gathering information and fighting demonic forces, Tianren will have to unravel the mystery surrounding the corporation SIVA and the supernatural beings from Chinese mythology.

Even though the game is set in an unusual futuristic "urban" environment, it plays like a traditional Japanese RPG, with turn-based combat (viewed from an "over-the-shoulder" perspective similar to Phantasy Star IV), weapon and armor upgrades, special attacks, etc.
