Create your own story in this dark fairytale. You’ll adventure as Tania through mysterious ancient ruins to uncover her origins and her destiny. Is there any chance for survival in the darkest, most desperate place?
Tania, the bionic girl, is dispatched by her creator, Dr. Herveus, to search for and rescue a missing research team in the tropical forest of the Horace Islands. Here, the mysterious Karpas energy transforms local animals and plants into aggressive mutants.
Defeat your enemies with a wide range of combos – from the fastest to the slowest. Block enemy attacks to gain advantage, use the Sudden Lift skill to re-enter the fray, and dash against enemies during their attacks to slow the world around you while gaining damage immunity. Combos and Skills will also help you overcome hordes of enemies and defeat bosses.
Collect mysterious Ether and use it to your advantage. Enhance Tania’s combat abilities and strength or choose different Skills useful in various situations. How about upgrading your weapons or trading some Ether for useful items? The choice is yours.
Don’t waste your time traveling. The map is designed to save your time while exploring. If you struggle in combat, you can lower the difficulty level and gain some helpful bonuses. Tania always finds cheerful words for you, even in her darkest moments. Because this isn’t just her story – it’s yours too.
