   Now I bet most of you reading this are shocked to see such a game coming from Capcom of all people. I know I was the first time I saw this game.

Basically what we have is a 3D maze like corridor game mixed with 2D cut-out still battle scenes and FMV sequences. Now you may be wondering what I mean by 2D cut-out still battle scenes. Well, every now and then you'll come across a main enemy that needs to be taken out. This is done in the form of an option select battle. Basically you have to select an option that will counteract the enemy's action. The second screen shot on the back of the case shows this type of battle. There is another type of battle mind you. When walking around the 3D mazes, which must be said do look quite solid, you will encounter minor enemies. These are taken out by moving a cursor across the screen which acts as your target. Move the target over the enemy then hit the punch button. Simple really.

Not the greatest game out there but interesting never the less and best of all it's playable without knowing Japanese. You won't understand the full story mind you.
