Scion (Cinematronics) — About this game
Scion (Cinematronics) places its spacecraft over a layered city whose ground structures must be broken apart to reach the next area. Shooting the aerial enemies keeps a route open and can reveal the bomb equipment needed against the city’s vulnerable points. The battlefield loops around the current layer until its destruction allows further progress. The player therefore needs to divide attention between defending the craft and completing the ground objective, rather than waiting for ordinary scrolling alone to carry the stage to an ending.
