Gyra has usurped the throne, and his minions are pillaging and plundering throughout the countryside. The kingdom is doomed unless someone can stop this madness and restore order to the land. You are the ELEMENTAL MASTER, and you're the only person with the power to put an end to Gyra's reign of terror. Harnessing the power of the elements fire, water, wind, and the earth you use them as your very own weapons to fight all that is evil in the world. You'll be up against Gyra's most ruthless henchmen as you battle through eight levels of intense action. But you've got the power of magic on your side, and if you can master the five spells at your disposal, you'll be a nearly unstoppable force. Of course, when you're single-handedly taking on an entire army, the odds are stacked against you. But with the power of the elements, you're the only one who can stop Gyra and his army.
This game is a shooter almost like Cabal, except that your characters are huge and the screen continually scrolls to the right. The object of the game is to help rid the Earth of aliens.
The player takes on the role of Clint Westband, a bounty hunter in pursuit of the desperados of the Wild West. As he makes his way through the streets, he has to take down bandits to earn more bounties, and along the way he can collect dynamite (to blow things up), extra bags of cash and keys to open doors. There are also items to collect to kill ghosts, scorpions and hornets, as they absorb his energy and eventually kill him. Be careful not to shoot innocent bystanders, or some of the bounty collected will have to be returned.
