You are Pablo Cruz, a Mexican detective selected by Lady Death herself to take on the greatest case of his career: Retrieving a mighty amulet that can undermine her power over the Realm of the Dead and disrupt el Día de los Muertos. Armed with the mighty La Sombra and a Mariachi suit imbued with supernatural powers, it's time for you to descend into the underworld and confront the Mariachi Legends and their minions - before it's too late!
Combining side-scrolling beat-em-up gameplay with vibrant Mexican culture, Mariachi Legends is an unique experience. Responsive, fast-paced combat meets platforming, exploration, and copious amounts of quirky, old school violence for a good cause. Not to mention, death not as a failure, but a stepping stone to fulfilling Cruz' ultimate quest.
