8 Eyes is set in a post-apocalyptic future. Mankind is recovering from hundreds of years of chaos and nuclear war, and civilization is being rebuilt by the Great King, who harnesses the power of the eight jewels. The jewels, known as the 8 Eyes, were formed at the centers of eight nuclear explosions that came close to destroying the Earth. The 8 Eyes have mysterious power which, in the wrong hands, could bring about the end of the world. The Great King's eight power-hungry dukes steal the jewels for themselves and banish the King to the nuclear wastelands, threatening to once again plunge the Earth into war. The player controls Orin the Falconer and his fighting falcon Cutrus. His mission is to penetrate the Dukes' eight castles and retrieve the 8 Eyes. With the help of Cutrus, you must fight the Dukes' soldiers, nuclear mutants, and the duke of each castle to retrieve the jewels. After the jewels have been recovered, you must return them to the Altar of Peace so that the Great King may return and finish rebuilding the Earth.

CONTROL MAN AND BIRD
IN A FIGHT FOR THE EIGHT JEWELS OF POWER!
fter hundreds of years of chaos, mankind has
finally emerged from the ruins of nuclear war.
This world of the distant future has once again
fluorished under the guidance of the Great King, who
harnessed the power of the 8 Eyes to rebuild the planet.
These strange jewels of power were formed at the
eyes, or centers, of the eight nuclear explosions which
nearly destroyed the Earth. In the wrong hands, the 8
Eyes could cause untold destruction ... And now, they
have been seized by the Great King's eight Dukes, in a
desperate bid to gain control of the world for them-
selves. They have banished the King to the nuclear
wastelands, and already their squabbling threatens to
plunge the world into war once again!
The task of retrieving the 8 Eyes falls to you, Orin the
Falconer, the bravest and mightiest of the King's
Guardsmen. With your fighting falcon, Cutrus, you must
penetrate each of the eight Dukes' castles. There you
will face the Dukes' soldiers, and battle strange nuclear
mutants such as living skeletons, giant wasps, and mud
men. You must defeat the monstrous Boss of each castle
to retrieve the Jewel of Power he guards.
Then, to complete your quest, return the 8 Eyes to the
Altar of Peace to await the return on the Great King, so
that he may finish the rebuilding of Earth. Your reward
will be the the eternal gratitude of all mankind!
