Undead Line
Undead Line is a top-down shooter with scrolling stages, closer to Commando than to a space shooter, in which the player's character fires on ranks of monsters. Its six levels are presented as a menu and can be taken in any order, each ending in a boss fight. Power-ups sit in chests that open when shot, and in the Mega Drive version holding fire on an open chest cycles through the items it can yield, among them armour, speed boosts and several kinds of projectile.

STORY
In the beginning, the world was inhabited by gods and giants who fought over which race would rule. To win, the giants created four "living weapons" who were so fearsome and effective, both sides lost. The day of the monsters's creations would come to be called Ragnarök. Ages later, Count Brahzen, a leader of demons, invaded the Gitane Kingdom, who were able to defend themselves solely by tactical decisions made by their King Fahrenheit II... only to discover Count Brahzen is seeking the Spirit of Roshufa in order to revive one of the four legendary monsters. You are Leon, a fighter chosen by the King to obtain the Spirit before Count Brahzen does.
