The story in the game is not that extraordinary. The protagonist is a demon dressed in white, and he intends to permanently secure his place in heaven. However, it won't be easy. The most important opponent is not idle and seems to be sure of victory at some point, and the other participants of these specific competitions also strive for success.

We can eliminate targets with the help of special Soul Cards – one of them provides a blow with a melee weapon, others yield a rifle salvo, and others throw the opponent off balance. The protagonist can also sacrifice one of the cards, gaining a special move – long jump, faster run or time to hide.

There's a lot of area to explore here. The hero runs, jumps, hides, and rarely talks to NPCs. The way this game has been designed makes it impossible to get bored here. It's not hampered by any major bugs (at least we haven't noticed any). Maybe the dialogues seem a little stiff, but it's something definitely worth recommending.
