About The Game

Demon's World is a side-scrolling shoot-em-up/platform arcade video game.

Trivia

Licensed to Taito for Japanese distribution.

Demon's World was originally known as "Hora Story" rather than horror story as listed. For US distribution, it was licensed to World Games who later became Catalina Games for the release of their only inhouse designed game "Cool Pool".

Updates

There are two versions of this game. One has a setting in the netherworld of the far east and features undead creatures of Asian lore while the other sets the game in the spooky Old West with appropriate ghosts and the like.
