About This Game

Makaimura Gaiden: The Demon Darkness is a action platforming game released in Japan for the Game Boy in 1993. It is the second title for the handheld platform featuring the demon Red Arremer (also known outside of Japan as Firebrand, a boss from Ghosts 'n Goblin) as the player character. The game was originally set to be localized in English as Gargoyle's Quest II, but North American release plans were eventually cancelled.

Firebrand is a young warrior in training in his hometown of Etruria. One day, while Firebrand is training in a small, alternate dimension, the Black Light suddenly appears and destroys his home. When he returns successfully from his training, he is told to hurry to the king by another ghoul just before it dies. Upon defeating Nagus, Firebrand is able to meet with King Morock, who informs Firebrand he is on the brink of death. Before dying, he gives Firebrand the Spectre's Fingernail and Firebrand sets off on a journey to unravel the mystery of the Black Light.
