Games Like IKARUS

IKARUS casts you as a lone and ancient guardian flying to the rescue of the Sun-goddess Amaterasu, fighting through hordes of hostile machines as the clock ticks to Armageddon. It fuses the lightning-fast, skill-based chaos of classic arcade shoot 'em ups with the deep strategy of a rogue-like deck-builder. Plan your attack, execute it with precision, and see how close to the sun you can fly.
