Since the mists cleared from the Silurian Epoch, man's greatest fear has been the UNKNOWN. Evil, most fearful of all the unknowns, had adopted many forms since the beginning of recorded time. Till now the DARK ONE had only manifest itself in the hidden depths of our imagination.
Twister, the blackest-hearted dweller in Hades, has ascended from the pits of the nether world to pronounce an ultimatum of despair, on the world of mankind.
To oppose the relentless onslaught of Twisters hordes, you alone are chosen to gather the sacred symbols that will enable mankind to overcome the terrifying might of Twister. Before you begin your quest you will have to summon all your reserves of courage and cunning.
In your first encounter with Twisters demonic acolytes, you must collect the four suits of cards. You must next acquire all the characters of the word of power. Only then can you advance to the next level.
Your next task is to collect the mystical signs of the Zodiac, then the planetary symbols. Delving deeper into the unexplored regions of your Id; you are confronted with having to rebuild the dismembered parts of Twisters discarded human form.
Twister knows you are close to victory. Only one weapon, the Psychic Bolt, can completely exorcise Twister from your domain. To secure the supernatural weapon you must conquer the gathering legions of Twister, the devil-spawn of Tartarus.
Once the demonry are vanquished, you must fire the psychic bolt down Twister's foul throat. Only then can you claim to be truly victorious.
He who has dared to gaze upon the numinous visage of Twister, shall possess knowledge of the unknown -- OR BE POSSESSED, FOREVER
