Cadash

Released by Taito in 1990 for arcades, Cadash is an ambitious title that fuses the exhilarating feel of an action game with the character progression elements of an RPG. Players choose from four distinct classes—Warrior, Mage, Priest, and Ninja—and set out on a journey through a vast fantasy world to defeat the Demon King. The combination of fast-paced, high-action gameplay with rewarding elements like collecting equipment and leveling up deeply captivated players at the time of its release. We invite you to experience this timeless side-scrolling adventure and rediscover the excitement it generated in the arcades of yesterday.

To rescue Princess Sarasa, who has been kidnapped by the demon Barlog, the player embarks on an adventurous journey. Set in a fantasy world, you will interact with the people you meet along the way and equip yourself with gear to stand up against powerful enemies. Your goal is to storm Barlog’s castle, which awaits you at the end of your path, and rescue the princess.
