It is a shoot 'em up game released in 1993 by Hudson Soft and Red company and was later ported to Sega CD in 1995. The game exceeds the traditional shooter video game and features a heavy metal fantasy-style setting. It follows a god knight called Landis, who is after the evil Zaggart and his six followers, who have torn the world apart. Lander flies through a total of seven stages. He flies with the help of four special suits of armour. The basis of each of them is an elemental force- Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth and each offers a different style of offence. The Fire Suit throws arcs of flame, Water Suit washes enemies away with waves of water, The Wind Suit sends out lightning bolts, and The Earth Suit launches bombs toward the ground. After the players pick their wardrobe option, they get a choice of the location.
The game presents stages in any order as the players like. At the start, the players get to choose any of the six different levels. The levels themselves represent the graphical variance: from the snow-bound cavern, the greenness of a plant stage, heavily occupied desert, a fortress on top of a cliff, a watery lagoon, and to the hellfire of a volcano. And after the players clear all the six, then the final seventh stage unlocks where the players enter the boss's lair. The boss first enters as a human from the ceiling to the chamber's surface. After a few seconds, he changes into a half-spider half reptile monster. The game is very colourful; the boss's animation is fantastic. The enemies range from water dragons and wizards to crazy things like evil jaw without a face or flying tortoise carriers. The significant part of the game is its sound.
