The game installer is 16bit application so it can't be run on 64bit OS, but this is unnecessary as you can simply copy the Game folder from the CD where-ever you would've otherwise installed the game and run it from there as if you had installed it there.

If you're missing video in animations (but sound works fine) and missing text in main menu (and the mission log in-game, if you manage that far blind), try enabling triple buffering, this worked for me for some mysterious reason.

A manga-style 3D shooter with a great plot. Use a soldier inside the buildings and a 20 mt. robot on the streets. Great variety of weapons and cool graphic with explosions, smoke and blood!

Editor notes (2)

Two expansions were planned but never finished.

The first one was titled Shugotenshi and was developed by Nevolution. Kura Akkuraju would have been the main character.

The other one, developed by Anarchy Arts, was titled Legacy of the Fallen and was set on a Kato mining facility on another planet, where the player would have learned more about the Fallen.
