Guardian Cry is an open world action adventure game in the style of the 16-bit era. When invaders from the Venox Empire upset the peace in the land of Ilethia and unleash a corrupting force that drives the once-peaceful creatures into a frenzy, you take it upon yourself to enter the corrupted temples of the four Guardian deities and free them from their affliction. With their help, you may drive out the invading empire and restore peace to the land of Ilethia.
