About:
In the 22nd century, a powerful magnetic wave obliterated half of Eurasia. Anarchy ensued, the traditional system of government was abolished, and the continent soon turned into a no-man's-land. The power shifted towards huge corporations, which controlled the construction of space stations and ensured living conditions on the Earth. Two oligarchs were the most powerful ones: Phatty in Hong-Kong, and Tenkai in Tokyo. One fine day, the expert martial artist Kikumaru Sakakibara is visited by Rim, a cute-looking, yet deadly fighter. She tells him that Tenkai has stolen something very valuable from Phatty, and introduces Kikumaru to a group of fighters who intend to bring the oligarchs down. The heroes must now discover the secrets of the powerful corporations and ultimately succeed in their mission... Edge is a side-scrolling brawler. In the beginning, the player can control either Edge or Rim; later, other characters can become protagonists. The characters have various strength and weaknesses and use different weapon (mostly melee) to attack. Most of the game consists of walking in one direction, punching and kicking the enemies who try to stop the hero. It is possible to execute different attacks by combining directional keys, jump, and block enemy attacks. The level typically culminates in a boss fight. The game frequently interrupts the action with dialogue and cutscenes, which drive the story forward.
