Helen knows little about who she is and where she is, but she’s dying to find out. Stuck on an island with a mazelike castle begging to be explored, Helen lets her curiosity get the better of her. It’s a good thing she’s more than capable. Armed with a plethora of weapons she finds on her journey, Helen must battle monsters, collect amazing relics, and uncover the secrets of her mysterious home.(Storyline via IGDB)
