Story
In the Kingdom of Badham exists a statue of a bird known as the Wing of Madoola. Whoever possesses the Wing has incredible power. After many wars raged over control of the Wing of Madoola, King Rameru managed to secure the Wing deep in a cave where it remained hidden for centuries. The kingdom existed in peace for these years.
When Darutos learns of the whereabouts of the Wing of Madoola he uses it for evil. He attacks the kingdom with demons and monsters while hiding away in a labyrinth.
Lucia, a brave warrior princess, sets out to take down Dartuos and retrieve the Wing of Madoola before the kingdom can be destroyed.
The game's plot was noted for its progressive gender role reversal, where instead of a male protagonist saving a princess, this time it was a female protagonist saving a prince along with her homeland.

After a player dies, when presented with the game-over screen, if the player holds "Select" while pressing "Start" a continue option is presented. Any previously completed stage in the current play session can be chosen to continue from. The player retains all of their items and weapons.
