STORY

Satan is seeking to take over the earth, and to do so, he has released all of the souls contained within, in an attempt to wreak havoc on the living.

You play as the Grim Reaper, and you are not pleased with Satan's choice to free all of the souls you've collected for him over the millennia. He broke the contract, and your goal is to collect all of the souls before they can escape.

The restless souls, angry for their time spent in the bowels of the earth, will not be captured without a fight. Should you last long enough, garner new skills and improve your weapon's capability until you deem yourself strong enough to battle Satan himself.
