An oddity from the days of the Megazeux AOL archive. It's basically an imitation of Forest of Ruin with a different plot and setting. The demo of one, anyway. There's only a few areas on the map, and once you complete them you can't advance. There is no ending...

The bosses and puzzles are nothing great, but the sidescroller area is HORRIBLE. The controls are unresponsive and you have to fight against conveyors over a lava pit for a few boards--both ways. Most people will give up at this point, and would be justified in doing so. It's not simply challenging, it's horrible.

Even though there's one ripped song in the game, there's also some original music! It's clearly some heavily modified Zeux music. It doesn't sound bad though, and the only other Megazeux users who were making their own module music in this game's era were Brian Palmer (STRIKESOFT) and Creator. This game is notable if only for that fact.

Incomplete demo, not a very good game, but it does have a few cool original tunes in it!
