Overview
Description

Ace Lightning is a third‑person action‑adventure where you control the heroic Lightning Knight across the twisted Carnival of Doom. Explore four distinct zones—Ghost Town, Fun Park, Circus, and House of Horror—collecting the scattered pieces of the magical Amulet of Zoar while battling evil clowns, zombies, and other nightmarish foes.\nThe final showdown pits you against the series villain Lord Fear, using the assembled amulet to send him and his gang back to the sixth dimension. Designed for single‑player fans of platform shooters, the game blends sci‑fi flair with horror‑themed level design.

Set in a near-future world where septimal powers spark fear, Azure Striker Gunvolt follows a lightning-wielding protagonist fighting for freedom against the oppressive Sumeragi Group. As a member of the resistance faction QUILL, Gunvolt must confront the dark experiments on adepts and take down the virtual pop star Lumen.
