Embark on a journey of vengeance and redemption as the 'Cursed King,' reclaiming your rightful throne in this action platformer.

 Wield the chains that once imprisoned you, now transformed into powerful weapons, to vanquish foes, solve puzzles and navigate the treacherous terrain of your shattered kingdom. 

Assume the mantle of the ‘Cursed King’ as you embark on a relentless journey of vengeance to reclaim your stolen kingdom. Traverse perilous lands fraught with danger as you hunt for the scattered fragments of celestial arrows, combining them to purge your curse and unlock your true power.

Embrace your newfound strength and command over the chains that once bound you deep within the crypts. Harness this tool to repel, slash, and eviscerate any who dare obstruct your path. Utilise your chains further for navigation, attaching to rings and propelling across chasms to reach new areas.

Explore every inch of your crumbling kingdom, uncovering hidden chambers and clandestine passages teeming with invaluable treasures. Acquire newfound abilities and enhancements as you delve deeper, fortifying yourself for the trials that await.

As the Cursed King, you will face formidable challenges along our journey. To prepare for these trials, you must enhance your abilities by collecting 'Power Crystals'. These crystals can be acquired by finding secret, hidden chests scattered throughout the realm or by accumulating enough wealth to purchase them from merchants' shops. Once obtained, use your 'Power Crystals' wisely to upgrade the following abilities:

Test your strategic finesse and precise timing in intense battles that demand skilful manoeuvring to overcome gruelling, gigantic bosses. These monstrous foes will push you to your limits as you look for every strategy to defeat the powerful beasts. Can you overcome them and save your Kingdom from ruin?
