Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX

Overview

Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX is a shooter with a rich history. The series of Darius games prior to Burst have been groundbreaking in their multiscreen setups and Another Chronicle EX continues this tradition with two 32-inch LCD screens placed seamlessly next to eachother.

The game is an off-beat, sci-fi shoot 'em up set in outer space with aquatic-themed (typically fish-shaped) robotic enemies. In keeping with tradition, the game also features branching paths instead of the linear progression found in most video games.

• Four players can team up to fight back against the robotic hordes! The shared power-up system means no worries about one player hogging all the glory.

• "Body sonic" booming sound system that makes use of two subwoofers so you feel each explosion.

• Soundtrack produced by the famous ZUNTATA

• Two headphone jacks so you minimize other sound from the arcade around you

• Choose from eight different ships, each with unique abilities

• Infinite Ship Entry - play through the game with unlimited lives for an extra price. (Drawback is you can't save a high score or unlock a level in Chronicle mode)

• ​Stellar, vibrant graphics without a hint of slowdown while enemies pile onto the screen
