About this game

The Planet Buster is an action RPG focused on dungeon crawling and real-time combat, following the warrior Ares as he escapes a dangerous underground prison and searches for his stolen magical sword. The game features rotating dungeon environments, puzzle-solving, spellcasting, and a unique perspective system where the world rotates around the player character.

The Planet Buster continues the story that was told in the first Brandish game, and depicts the events that happened three years after the evil demonic king was defeated in his lost kingdom, sunken deep underground. You take control of a young warrior named Ares, who wields a magical weapon, a powerful sword called the Planet Buster. One day, while traveling through a desert, Ares is captured by a warlock named Karl, who is after the powers hidden within the magical sword. Suspecting Ares might have some valuable information, Karl doesn't execute him, but takes away the Planet Buster and throws Ares into his underground prison. Now your primary goal is to guide Ares out of the huge prison full of various dangers, and to get your mighty weapon back.
