Gameplay

The game is divided into scenes, and a player must pass 1 scene in order to proceed to the next. If a player fails to pass the scene, for example when his character has been killed off, the player's total number of lives reduces and they must repeat the scene until the scene is completed.

The player is given five lives, which reduce whenever the player is killed by the enemies, is boiled over in the lake, enters into a bridge or is consumed by any trap. However, once the lives have been depleted, the player cannot play again until when the lives have been replenished.

Story

The player assumes the role of a blind knight, Edward Blake, whose wife has been kidnapped by unknown captors. Accompanied by his daughter Louise, Edward must traverse the kingdom of High Castle, facing enemies and traps in order to save his wife from her mysterious assailants.
