Levels can be approached in any order and feature multiple routes filled with disgruntled dead, tricky traps, hidden treasures, and screen covering waves of bullets. Find your floppy-eared friends and get them back across the River Styx before hell freezes over!Įxplore the far reaches of the Underworld, including a forest bathed in darkness and a cursed bell tower. Hades is not pleased – the boisterous bunnies are distracting the inhabitants from their endless torment. While sleeping on the job, a herd of woodland rabbits hopped into the kingdom of the dead. You are Cerberus, feared guardian of the Underworld. Capturing at least 80% of the playfield will end the level - bonuses are awarded for more higher levels feature faster action, more worms, multiple Styx (Stygii?), and generally nastier enemy behavior.Chasing Styx is an action-packed, three-headed dog, run 'n' gun, couch co-op, bullet-hell adventure. Other ways to get yourself killed are standing still for too long (while building), and meeting the worm that crawls along the edges of your domain. The Styx cannot harm you as you travel along the border of your captured areas, but if it touches a wall as you build it, the wall goes down - along with you. Unlike QIX, you can draw both straight and diagonal walls another difference is the scoring, which depends on a cycling multiplier: time your conquests right, and you may even increase your bonus tenfold. The chief obstacle is the colorful Styx, which (fittingly) resembles a bundle of sticks, and prowls about the screen in unpredictable swirls of motion. A variation on QIX: claim the playfield by building walls and closing off smaller regions.
