SUNSOFT revives three classic action games in this PC collection: The Wing of Madoola, 53 Stations of the Tokaido, and Ripple Island. Players control Lucia in side-scrolling stages of The Wing of Madoola, battling monsters with power-up items and spells to reach bosses like Darutos. In 53 Stations of the Tokaido, Kantaro hurls firework grenades at assassins along the road, uncovering hidden items in empty spots. Ripple Island tasks Kail with nine commands to solve challenges and topple Emperor Gerogale in an adventure format.
Save and rewind features make these retro titles playable for newcomers. Power-ups, spells, and grenade throws form the core action loops across diverse stages. This suits fans who struggled to beat them originally, plus collectors exploring Sunsoft's legacy.

★★ Introduction of Games Included ★★
The Wing of Madoola
[Story]
In the land of Badham, there was once a statue of a bird, called "The Wing of Madoola",
The wing granted power to rule the world to the one who possessed it, and so the people warred over its control for a long time.
During one era, the Wing of Madoola came into the possession of the kindhearted king of the Rameru family. The king sealed it away to cease the wars. However, Darutos, a descendant of the Rameru line, betrayed his family and took the wing.
Darutos built himself a demonic fortress and attempted to take over the world.
Darutos and the Rameru clan fought fiercely, until only the warrior Lucia remained of the clan.
As the sole magic-user of the Rameru clan, Lucia heads to Alex Castle where Darutos resides, refusing to retreat.
