ーThis is a story from another Earth, another universe...

Originally released for Dreamcast and arcades in 2007, this vertical shoot 'em up makes a comeback on PC.

Karous was made an orphan during a war between sky dwellers and humans. With only her father's dying words to guide her, she descends to Earth in search of the Sanguis Dei. What will she see there? What will she lose?

Enjoy atmospheric visuals, unique characters, and a drum 'n' bass soundtrack laced with masterfully crafted breakbeats.

➤ Every attack makes you stronger

Your main options are Shot, Sword, and Shield. The more you use them, the more powerful they become. Mix and match your weaponry as you tackle each stage.

➤ Low skill floor, high skill ceiling

Karous's easy mode is regarded as one of the most accessible in the genre, letting newcomers readily get a taste of the exhilaration that this game offers.

The normal mode provides a fun, moderate challenge, while the hard mode is designed for players looking to truly master the game and reach the highest peaks. Karous offers a great experience to people of all skill levels.

➤ Compelling depth

Karous features a variety of strategies to master. When enemies lay down barrages of bullets, you can evade them with a special attack that grants invincibility, reflect them with your Shield, or erase them using Shot or Sword. Dodging is always an option, but it's never the only solution.

A cult classic returns!

Ever since its original release in 2006, Karous has garnered countless fans both in arcades and at home with multiple console ports.

The crowdfunding campaign for this new remaster was a huge success, reaching 300% of its initial funding goal and hitting every stretch goal, too.

High-definition visuals and a new soundtrack

The graphics are crisper and more immersive than ever, looking great on modern displays.

What's more, you can switch between the highly acclaimed original music and a newly remixed soundtrack brought to you by Shinji Hosoe and Ayako Saso (SuperSweep), along with the original composer Daisuke Nagata (RS34).
