Darius Gaiden


Darius Gaiden
Sega Saturn
 Horizontal 2D Shoot 'Em Up
1995.12.15

This is an awesome arcade port of a great shump, Darius Gaiden pits you up against a wide range of mechanical marine life. A big draw to the game is being able to choose your own path through the stages, which works the same as Sega's Out Run. Your weapon can be upgraded numerous times, incrementally turning the weak single shot into a death cannon far beyond the point of ridiculous. Part of what makes the game so fun is trying to survive long enough to keep building your firepower up into insanity. This is a must-play shump.
