About this game

Zombie Hunter is an action RPG exclusively published in Japan. It was developed by a Japanese gaming magazine known as Hi-Score. The player must complete six sidescrolling levels and in each level, the player is presented with a number of fights that prevent you from making progress until all of the enemies have been defeated or chased away.

The city of Palma had been protected by the four spirits who govern fire, water, wind, and earth, continuing a long era of peace. One day, Dolgo, the spirit of earth, started a revolt. He made off with the Life Seeker and disappeared into his underground labyrinth. The Life Seeker does the essential work of controlling this world's Energy. Dolgo acquired the ability to freely use that Energy. Meanwhile, the people of Palma began to lose their souls, and the city was filled with sadness and pain. Ariel, the spirit of wind, commanded her subordinate, Byuzu to seek out a hero who could defeat Dolgo and regain the Life Seeker. You are the warrior chosen by Byuzu. To defeat Dolgo, you set off on a journey into the underground labyrinth…
