The Earth was plagued by a global war that lasted twenty years. The invention of the Arcadia Bomb led to an uneasy peace. Shortly afterwards, a warrior race known as Lelia expressed their interest in the bomb and attacked the weakened humanity. Only the most skillful pilot can protect the planet and defeat the enemy. This is a Korean-made side-scrolling shoot-em-up (the first game never got released due to quality concerns, and The Day 2 only came out on MSX). The player can select to control any of the three characters: Jeong Kihyeop in his balanced fighter craft Taemiru; Jennifer Lee and the well-protected, but slow Black Cat; and Siegfried Reutz in his powerful, but fragile Gladiator. The player also chooses the shape of the future "options" (firepower-enhancing circles) for the craft - surrounding or attached to the tail. Each ship can collect up to four weapons, and the player can switch between them at will. Letter-shaped upgrades appear in the stages or are dropped by enemies. The game uses pseudo-3D scrolling, allowing enemies to appear from fore- and background. | ||
