About the Game



A small group of terrorists called Scientific Freedom has set up force fields around the planet. "The Unified Realm has assigned you to a hammer and the only indestructible armor in their possession to stop the threat. Use your combat skills to face various animals and robots controlled by evil scientists.

Smash the environment with your hammer and hit the pieces against the foes, or use your attacking and blocking skills to fight them off. An action game with deliberate combat where you have to study the enemy's movements to win, or if that fails, just raise a building on top of them. The wicked scientists control numerous beasts and over 20 levels to stop us from finding out their evil plans. You, or the person who will wear the indestructible armor after you, is our only hope in this crazy adventure.
