About the Game
In Akuji: The Heartless players take the role of Akuji, a voodoo-priest. The title of the game is meant to be taken literally as Akuji's wedding day brought a problem with it: his brother kills him and rips out his heart. Now Akuji has to travel through the underworld to get back to the living and take his revenge. The game is a typical third-person action: players jumps and fights through the stages.

Standout Features
