A lone spaceship enters the Kraal arena. The rules have always been the same: destroy everything in front of you, or be destroyed. Nihilist distills the arena shooter to its fundamentals, drawing the gameplay line between two arcade classics — the wave-shooting tension of Beamrider and the spatial depth of the original Star Wars coin-op. The Kraal does not care who you are. It only cares whether you survive the next deathmatch.
