Year 1993Dev LucasArts · Konami

✓ Fits the isometric Action RPGs cluster, with deep RPG systems, shooter and dark, oppressive atmosphere

≠ Its own twist: action RPG combat, while skipping first-person shooting

A top-down survival game about rescuing victims before monsters reach them, built for two players and much better that way. Weapons are improvised and scarce. It is genuinely hard in an unforgiving arcade sense — limited continues, no map, and later levels where finding the last neighbour eats more time than surviving does.

It predates Crimsonland by 21 years, with what that implies technically.
