Angels watch over the humans. The main character called the Martyr is entrusted with a mission aimed at overthrowing the Trumpeters. To accomplish this, he must follow the mysterious signal.

During combat it is important to remember that every gun has its strengths and weaknesses. It also wears out over time. The condition of our weapon directly affects its behavior - the worse it is, the more often it can jam.
