| history | Ghox (c) 1991 Toaplan. Under the spell of the evil Magician Jagula, who plots to conquer the world, Lucia, the goddess of light, is confined by the gates of the Netherworld. A dark age is ushered in and evil spirits from mountains and rivers roam throughout the world. Deeply affected by the horror of the world, King Gitane of the Akura Empire summons two burly and brave men from the Eastern Country and orders them to subdue Jagula. These 2 heroes journey through the evil spirits' lair which is cut off from the exclusive pious area. Freely manipulating their magic balls, Axis and Bilious plung into action. - TECHNICAL - Game ID : TP-021 Main CPU : 68000 (@ 10 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM2151 (@ 3.375 Mhz) Screen orientation : Vertical Video resolution : 240 x 320 pixels Screen refresh : 60.00 Hz Palette colors : 2048 Players : 2 Control : dial Buttons : 2 - TRIVIA - Licensed to Romstar for USA, to Nova Apparate GMBH & Co. for Europe, to JP Leisure Limited for UK, to Star Electronica SRL for Italy, to APM Electronics S.A. for Spain & Portugal and to Honest Trading Co. for Hong Kong. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Hidden Functions : If the 'Invulnerability dip switch' is enabled, you are invulnerable but you may also 'Pause' the game with P2 Start and restart with P1 Start. * Power up items : 1.
