About This Game
Two celestial warriors, Idaten and Benten, are dispatched from the Heavens to confront Botei, a tyrannical champion whose dominance in intergalactic bodybuilding has twisted into something far more sinister. Facing a depleted supply of protein, Botei has begun subjugating entire worlds to establish manufacturing operations that will feed his insatiable appetite for enhancement. The two heroes must traverse hostile territories and contend with Botei's formidable Builder Army, an elite force assembled to defend his expanding empire of enslaved planets.
