Story

edit

The game takes place on "Red Earth"—Earth's second colony planet.[1] Dr. Faryan adventured into a cave and awoke an ancient evil that made him turn into an evil entity.[1] Afterwards, Dr. Faryan created an army of evil mutants who imprisoned nearly everyone on Earth.[2] The only hope for humanity is a man named Ken, the last of a tribe of changelings who has the ability to transform into a werewolf named "Warwolf".[1]

Gameplay

edit

Getting red "W"s will allow Ken to turn into a werewolf, granting him a longer-range melee attack, and a wall-climbing ability. Getting blue "W"s, while in werewolf form will make Ken turn back into a man. Getting bubbles will fill his anger meter and getting five of them will turn him into a super werewolf that can jump higher and do double damage for a limited time.
