Product Information
The newly built Empire State Building in El-Viento is not merely an office building, but it is considered a shrine by the Hastur group, a clan of cultists who worship the evil wind god, Hastur. This religious cult intends to resurrect their god and it's up to Annet, a distant relative of Hastur, to contain him and take control of his awesome power.<br><br>El-Viento (the Spanish word for "the wind") begins in 1928 with Annet, a sorceress who has telepathically harnessed a portion of Hastur's immense power, getting attacked by a mob of hired hitmen. From this point forward, Annet is constantly barraged by thugs, cult members, and other nefarious do-badders.<br><br>Annet fights her battles with an endless supply of boomerangs and various spells, including fireballs, strong water currents, explosions, and the wind itself. The wind cutter spell is especially powerful because it spreads over a wide area, thrashing every villain in its path.<br><br>One of the few videogames set in the early 20th century, El-Viento features some unusual settings such as the rooftops of old buildings, a speakeasy (prohibition-era club), and an automobile factory which cranks out depression-era cars.Product Identifiers
