Official Description (Ad Blurb)

THE FOREVER MAN

"Darkness falls upon the land as I await the return of the visions that have haunted my nights. Many years have passed since my arrogance doomed me to this life I now live, for I am condemned to walk the countryside until I can overcome the visions that keep me from my rest...

I can rely on only my swords and my knowledge of alchemy to release me from these bonds of time."

(screenshot captions)

Slash out with Chakan's double flaming swords and incredible spinning attacks. Your weapons are alchemy and immense power. Your enemies are the inhuman Royalty of Supernatural Horror.
8 mystic alchemies aid Chakan in his fight against evil.
Float under a fiend-filled sea and hack away at the Dragonfly King and his hideous Castle of Monsters.
Dive through punishing mazes, battling the fire-breathing undead zombies.
