Summary:

Enter the Demon Fortress. Built to torture pesky adventurers, this place is home to great treasure and ghastly creatures alike. But don't worry, you can count on allies like Fairies and Magical Seagulls to come to your help! Micro Mages is an homage to NES-era platformers.

We carefully distilled the spirit of the best games in the system's library, all the while drawing inspiration from the modern and putting our own spin on things, creating an experience like no other on the NES.

Storyline:

One day, the blue mage forgot to lock the door and when everyone came back home after a long day, their Princess was gone. A fairy beared terrible news: “Strange things are happening in the old Demon Fortress atop Pretzel Mountain!” The four mages did not hesitate. After chanting a teleportation spell they had just learned at the Academy, they took off to the Demon Fortress...
